The Shift is a community created by and for BIPOC, activated through gatherings in service of our healing.
Our mission is to help close the wellness gap by joyfully reclaiming our magic and sacred healing practices.
Our gatherings, known as Happenings, are designed to alchemize spirit, culture, and creativity for individual and collective transformation.
We shift the world by shifting ourselves first.
What is shifting?
The world is in a state of spiritual crisis. We are deeply disconnected from ourselves and each other. The Covid pandemic and its fallout has exacerbated an existing loneliness epidemic.
People are seeking more meaningful connection, and 45% of Americans seek community through spirituality. (Vox)
Yet the Spiritual Industrial Complex has created a world where wellness equals Whiteness.
“Most of today’s new-age spiritual teachers and coaches selling classes and practices are white individuals that have claimed non-Anglo cultural ancestral traditions as their own, re-packaged, and sold back to us. Worst yet is that not only is it appropriated practices…it comes to a price tag that most people can’t afford.”
-Giselle Baumet, Afro-Indigenous Bruja, Intuitive Life Coach, Transpersonal Hypnotherapist + Breathwork Practitioner
It’s time to reclaim our birthright to spirituality and magic, and reimagine ways to meaningfully connect and grow together.
