Emotional Authenticity
WHB is Powerful | Practical | Proven
That’s what I was told. Maybe you were too.
Forget it! Instead, AWARENESS, BALANCE AND
AUTHENTICITY has been the key to me using my
emotional and cognitive power.
The FEELINGS AS MESSENGERS protocol gave me
answers that I’ve been seeking for over 15 years. I didn’t
know that my learned emotional responses had been
falsified - so that I’d do the oppressors bidding
abandoning or making war with my own family,
community, organizations and businesses.
No matter how hard I tried, my efforts to build trust always
ended in me hurting someone or me getting hurt. Now, I
know why. I also know what to do
DIFFERENTLY!

The Flow of Recognition
They called it “The River of Touches.”
I call it “my lifeline”
I knew that I was powerful. I just didn’t know how to
consistently get and give healing touches in my
relationships - even with family.
Too often my words came out like damning torches
burning up my relationships and organizations. Often
I was right, but I was also alone. We can’t win alone.
While I knew that before, I didn’t know how to turn
my damning torches into healing touches - with
everyday conversation. The retreat helped me learn
to do this. Now, I’ve added some joy and peace to
my power!
Join me at the retreat and meet me at
The River of Touches!

WHB: Storytelling - IO
The Flow of Recognition
The stories I tell myself about them, about
me, about us and about our beginning,
middle, and end.
I didn’t know that I’d been tricked into
telling my story and my people’s stories
from the outside-in - from the oppressor’s
perspective, values, and goals. Like their
stories about me, I minimized my efforts
unless they met their approval (standard).
Their story had become so standard that I
was making the characters in my own
stories become “universal black orphans.”
The most powerful tool of the weekend was
SIO - Storytelling from the inside-out!
We used to be the master tellers - not just
the Djali (Griots) - our families, too. I had
become the consumers and repeaters of
alien stories about me, about us, the past,
and the future.
Join me for SIO.

WHB: The S/I Line Script
404.832.9958
My
Next page
All of these and more are used to convince
me that I’m inferior. It started early before I
could defend against it.
I’ve been hoodwinked, scripted,
manipulated to *behave* as if I’m inferior,
even when I don’t believe it. I yield to
others without even knowing it.
The script is hidden in places I’m still
discovering.
On the flip side, the counter script is also a
trap. I then treat others who I care about as
if I’m superior to them - especially when
I’m challenged. That only creates more
conflict!
In those relationships, the goal is not to get
on top of the line or to stay on the bottom.
The goal is to bend it into a circle - then
step inside.
The tool that has brought more joy, peace,
and power to my life is circling the S/I line.
Join me and let the circle be unbroken.
