The Healing Underground with Ìyá Ashley

Episode 9 - Decolonizing Healing: Who Gets to Feel Whole?


Listen Later

Healing has become an industry — but who does it actually serve?
Ìyá Ashley interrogates the wellness economy, performative self-care, and systems that decide who is allowed to feel safe, soft, and whole. She offers grounded questions to help listeners discern whether healing spaces truly honor their identity, culture, and spirit.
Decolonizing healing is not about aesthetics. It’s about dignity, alignment, and truth.
