As an active co-creator of the Syllabus for Liberation, her work addresses how personal, community, and global liberation depend upon each other. Through her consulting services, group offerings, and public speaking, Tiana highlights the ways these systems of oppression are bound together and how we can push back against them.
Happy 44th unbirthday to you, Reader! (unless it actually IS your birthday today and then YAAAYYYY!!! Happy Birthday to yoooooouuuu!!!) I'm not a big birthday celebrator... I think it has to do with the fact that I put so much into producing birthdays for my child. But mostly it probably has to do more with the facts that I'm just mentally and emotionally busy right now and most of the people I really want to do stuff with live across oceans from me. Le sigh. Either way, I'm sharing my birthday love in your direction with a 15% off coupon you can apply to any of my current offers until March 22nd. Not sure what my current offers are? Below you'll find a little summary and clicking on the "Learn More" button will help you do just that while also auto-applying the 15% off coupon code. And if coupons aren't your thing, no problem! I've got a small unbirthday gift for you too!!! Back when I turned 40, I made this epic list. It might make you laugh a little bit. You can read it here:
And that's it! Now I've got to go clean the flower vase that I used for last year's birthday flowers and have not yet cleaned and then display this year's flowers. #IsItTrulyAGiftIfCleaningIsNecessary In love, liberation, and solidarity, Sent with big fat love from a messy desk and a neurodivergent mind.

Hey Reader! Years ago, I got into the work of Gretchen Rubin. She's somebody who did lots of research around happiness and even published a book about it. One big thing I took away from her work (nothing about happiness, somehow), was that I was an Obliger. Here's what her quiz results say about folks like me, "Obligers meet outer expectations, but struggle to meet inner expectations. Of all the Tendencies, Obligers are the biggest group, and the ones whom people count on the most. They put a...
Hey Reader. [read this with your ears by clicking here] Do you ever catch yourself sliding down the YouTube rabbit hole of videos that you're watching for "curiosity" or "entertainment" sake, yet are thinly veiled self-punishments because you spend the entire time judging yourself for what you aren't doing already but think you should be? No? Just me?? Well, that's fine. Because if you keep reading I'll tell you more about the wild landscape that is inside my brain and maybe you'll find...
Hey Reader! Tomorrow, Sunday, February 25 I'm trying out something new: a Co-Doing Session! I find that body doubling (also known as coworking, which is simply doing your stuff with other people present) is a magical way to keep me on task and get things done. So if you're like me and enjoy doing your stuff with other folks around OR you're just curious about how or if body doubling can work for you, then I invite you to join me for a free Co-Doing Session! Simply RSVP by clicking the button...
