Today’s guest is award-winning educator, activist, author and poet, Dr. Yolanda Sealey-Ruiz. Dr. Sealey-Ruiz talks about her healing journey chronicled in her two works of poetry: “Love from the Vortex and Other Poems” and her forthcoming book “The Peace Chronicles.”
In this “compassionately honest” conversation, Dr. Kecia and Dr. Sealey-Ruiz examines how our ability to speak our truths with love, while interrupting destructive ways of thinking/acting, supports our healing and that of our next generation leaders.
