Find Joy in the Fight

Build spaces where people are energized, not exhausted.

Get Confident in the Hard Stuff

Learn your role in conflict and how to show up without making things worse.

Build Teams That Don't Suck

Create cultures where joy and accountability coexist and people stay because the work feeds them.

Turn Conflict Into Something Useful

Use it to build trust instead of fake harmony.

Say Goodbye to Corporate Soul-Crushing and Spiritual Bypassing

Real tools and accountability. Not soulless DEI theater or spiritual bypass dressed as transformation.

You're Isolated, Confused, and wondering,
”Am I doing enough?”

A woman leading a racial justice discussion in a meeting room with six people seated around a wooden table.

You care about social justice. You show up. But something's not working and you're exhausted.

If you're leading a team: Your organization talks about DEI but freezes when real conflict shows up. You have no idea what anti-oppression leadership looks like on a Tuesday afternoon. Meetings feel fake or tense, not real and productive.

You're tired of choosing between soul-crushing corporate consultants and the spiritual bypassing that passes as transformation. You're isolated, tired, and watching the world burn while you're supposed to just keep going.

If this is personal: You're stuck in your head about privilege, wondering where to put your limited energy and money. The negative self-talk is winning. You keep asking: Am I doing enough? Does any of this matter? What's my actual role?

You're afraid to set boundaries because someone might call you oppressive. You're stuck in an unforgiving or toxic culture that doesn't know how to handle conflict. They avoid it like it's contagious, refuse real infrastructure, and let structural oppression win.

Your justice work has become joyless. Liberation should feel like the future you’re building, not a punishment.

Let’s work together to reignite the joy in your work and see clear results that benefit everyone.

Let's Talk→

For 20 years, I've helped people transform how they show up in justice work.
Not ignore problems out of fear of getting it wrong, but actually live it when nobody's watching.

Here’s how because I care about you and what you’re working toward:

I tell you the truth. Because I love you and what you’re working toward. I'll name what's not working and hold space for you while you figure out what comes next. Everyone's doing their best and everyone can do better. That's not a contradiction.
I turn hard conversations into deeper connection. Conflict isn't the problem. Avoiding it is. I teach you how to use tension to learn what's real between people.
I bring joy into spaces that forgot it belongs there. This work doesn't have to be grim. When we're joyful and accountable at the same time, we're modeling the future we're fighting for. Joy isn’t a luxury.
I give you what you need right now. Sometimes that's listening and reflecting your wisdom back. Sometimes it's "here's exactly what to do." I know which moment needs which.
I use your whole body, not just your tired brain. Art. Movement. Theatre of the Oppressed. Because transformation lives in your bones.
I give you tools, not just inspiration. Every session ends with something you can actually use. Tomorrow. In real life. With real people.

White supremacy culture is mean and joyless and exhausting.
We can absolutely throw a better party than that.

THREE WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

Personal Coaching

One-on-one or small group coaching to get clear on who you're becoming and build the confidence to show up in multiracial spaces without falling apart or making things worse.

Organizational Change

The Intentional Workplace Project is a four-stage process to build real infrastructure for equity. Not the performative kind. The kind that makes joy and accountability possible at the same time.

Workshops & Retreats

Learning experiences that engage your whole self and feel less like school, more like the future you're building.

Meet Your facilitator-
I’m Evangeline

I know what it's like to be in spaces that talk about justice but can't handle conflict. I've spent 20 years watching good people burn out because they lacked the skills and infrastructure to do this work sustainably. I've seen the isolation, the self-doubt, the exhaustion of caring deeply without knowing if you're making a difference.

I know how to help you.

I'm a queer, anti-racist facilitator who builds joyful, accountable spaces. I have a twinkle in my eye and zero patience for bullshit that calls itself transformation.

I've worked everywhere: HIV prevention in NYC, Duke University's Office for Institutional Equity, the National LGBTQ Task Force (where I spent a decade creating anti-racist leadership programs), faith communities, advocacy campaigns, and cohousing projects. Different landscapes, same work. I help people identify their values and build the skills to live them.

I use art, movement, and Theatre of the Oppressed because your body knows things your brain hasn't figured out yet. I don't shy away from hard conversations. I turn them into relationship-building opportunities.

I received my Master’s Degree from University of Wisconsin-Madison and launched my practice full-time in 2020. I turned my TV off in 1984. I like to travel, make art, and walk around. Chapel Hill, North Carolina, is home.

I've been where you are.
And I can help you get where you're going.

Your seamless collaboration with our staff and leadership was remarkable and made the experience even more enriching.

I felt Evangeline led with personal and professional experience which lent to the success of delivery of the sessions. Overall, the sessions were a great way to provide insight into an area that many may not even consider. Evangeline was a great presenter, engager, and mediator at these sessions.

I thought Evangeline was PHENOMENAL! She was relatable, funny, knowledgeable, and professional with the topics she covered.

I appreciate the ways you modeled courageous and respectful discussion, even gentle & effective corrections with staff members.

I thought this session was insightful and opened up dialogue between coworkers to learn from each other. It also allowed for questions to be asked that some may have never thought to ask before. I felt it was a session that may be helpful to begin including as early as orientation for new employees.
