How can redefining leadership for women of colour through inner work and self-discovery break the cycles of intergenerational trauma and create lasting change for future generations?

Join us for a powerful conversation with international speaker and advocate, Rohene Bouajram, as she shares her Zimbabwean Canadian perspective on healing intergenerational trauma through self-discovery and inner work. Rohene's story is deeply rooted in her experiences with historical and present-day oppression of Indigenous communities in Canada. During the early pandemic, significant life changes, including a separation and starting a new job, led her on a path to counselling and deeper understanding of the impacts of colonisation. Together, we explore the essential role of equity, diversity, and inclusion in redefining leadership for women of colour.

Listen in as we examine the concept of inner work and the importance of questioning the paradigms and beliefs that shape our perceptions and behaviours. Rohene and I discuss various methods for inner work beyond counselling, such as meditation, faith, holistic treatments, and spiritual practices. We emphasise the need to find approaches that resonate individually and encourage openness to different methods for personal growth and self-discovery.

Our conversation continues with an exploration of the unique challenges women of colour face in leadership roles and the transformative potential of inner work in breaking generational cycles. Rohene shares her insights on systemic challenges in leadership and the importance of self-commitment to inner work as a means to respond to these challenges non-reactively.

Tune in for an inspiring and insightful episode that underscores the importance of inner work and its impact on future generations.
