HURWITZ
COACH | Consultant | FACILITATOR
Many of us have been struck in recent years by what we’ve learned about racism in our culture, our relationships, our selves.
Many of us struggle to figure out how to make things better—without making things worse. I struggle, too.
As a long-time educator, sole proprietor, and student of racial equity with the goal of liberation, I’ve created some concrete tools to offer.

Events
I offer workshops, meetings and circles infused with the stuff of equity: shared voices, deep listening, non-hierarchical set-ups that convey anti-oppression sensibilities in their very structure. I facilitate alone or with fabulous colleagues.
Many years ago I met a mindfulness teacher/nutritionist/improv artist who shared my love of games. Parlor games, board games, crafty games, running around games, word games. I mentioned that for me, there's nothing like the feeling of joy, exhilaration, and embodiment I experience when I play. She explained, "Games hold our attention. When we play them, we give them our singular focus, like in meditation. The benefits are the same."
