    Boundaries:
    Then, Now & Later

    The Final Phase of the Healing Arc Trilogy

    This 8‑week series is not a traditional boundaries group. It is a culturally rooted, lineage‑aware exploration of how boundaries form across time — shaped by the families we come from, the histories we inherit, the cultures we belong to, and the ways we learn to trust (or distrust) our own voice.


    We meet every other Thursday evening at 7pm, moving slowly and intentionally through the layers that influence how BIPOC and diaspora communities identify, set, and honor boundaries. 

    This work is not about learning scripts. It is about understanding what has formed your boundaries or lack thereof — where they began, how they were shaped, and what they need now.

    The Experience

    This intimate group series has been curated to strengthen your self-trust through guided tools, somatic practices and real-time boundary work, rooted in your lived experiences. We will honor, respect and practice empathy as you explore, identify and name how your lineage is reflected in your day to day. 

    Psychoeducation

    Clear, culturally grounded teaching that explains why boundary challenges exist in BIPOC and diaspora communities — and how to shift them

    Guided Reflection and Narratives learned

    Weekly prompts and exercises that help you explore your personal, familial, and cultural patterns impacting your boundary setting.

    Role Playing, Practice and Community

    Gentle, supportive role‑playing scenarios that help you practice boundary‑setting in real‑life situations with your community support. You’ll learn language, tone, pacing, and strategies that feel authentic and compassionate.

Boundaries setting has become one of the most discussed subjects due to the cultural nuances, the societal expectations and the emotional and somatic discomforts that setting boundaries comes with. This group has been created to prepare to educate the participant on how to identify, communicate and honor boundaries while remaining respectful and culturally attuned.
