Coaching with Ruth

A wise companion on your journey! 

"A teacher can only walk with students whose lives remain in their own hands." ~ Zenju Earthlyn Manual

Racial concerns are incessant, complex, and deeply activating. Whether you’re navigating institutional inequities, interpersonal tension, or internalized racial distress, the terrain can feel destabilizing. We’re often called to galvanize individuals with vastly different levels of understanding and sensitivity. The emotional labor is real—and too often invisible, undervalued, and exhausting.

A sacred space to reflect and renew.

One-on-one coaching offers a spacious, confidential, and compassionate container to pause, reflect, and realign. Rooted in mindfulness and racial awareness, our sessions support you in metabolizing internalized conditioning, clarifying your vision, and engaging your leadership and life with courage and integrity.

I bring to our work decades of experience—as a clinical psychologist, leadership consultant, meditation teacher, and elder. My approach is intuitive, direct, ceremonial, and always in service of your healing and liberation.

Whether you're navigating racial harm, seeking clarity in your leadership, or longing for a life that reflects your values, coaching provides a brave space to be met fully and authentically.

What to Expect in a Session

Each coaching session is a co-created field of presence. Together, we:

  • Explore racial identity, reactivity, and relational dynamics
  • Tend to emotional and energetic patterns that keep you stuck
  • Reconnect to the quiet knowing that already lives within you
  • Clarify your next steps from a place of wisdom, not urgency

This isn’t problem-solving in the conventional sense. It’s soul-tending. We listen deeply—to the body, to your breath, to your longing. And from that place, we move.

Who This Is For

This work is especially supportive for:

  • Facilitators, teachers, and truth-seekers craving racial clarity and integrity
  • DEI practitioners needing mentorship or spiritual support
  • Leaders and healers longing to live from center, not exhaustion
  • Spiritual practitioners exploring race as a gateway to deeper liberation

Whether you're new to racial inquiry or steeped in it, these sessions meet you where you are. No perfection required—only a sincere willingness to grow.

Client Reflections

“This work cracked me open in the most healing way. Ruth’s presence is like a tuning fork for the soul.” — Meditation Teacher

“Ruth’s guidance helped me hold complexity without collapse. I now move from center, not from fear.” — Diversity Consultant

What Coaching Is—and Isn’t

These sessions are:

  • A sacred container for honest exploration
  • A place to feel, heal, and realign
  • A path toward deeper awareness and embodied wisdom

They are not therapy, though healing happens. They are not consulting, though guidance may arise. They are soulful encounters, grounded in trust and truth.

Let’s Begin

In a world that rushes us past our own knowing, this is an invitation to pause. To listen. To come home to yourself. And from that place, to meet the world anew.
