"Fantastic presentation at the BC Chamber AGM May 28 2024. Your presentation was insightful and really shifted the thought process on how to implement a more Indigenous perspective into business. "
"Vanessa and Ariana created a respectful and welcoming environment and made space for participation in however participants chose to engage. What I liked best was the introduction to nervous system responses and reflecting on our own tendencies when activated. I also liked that the instructors promoted a balanced approach for actions when activated; to hold compassion and empathy while holding up boundaries and accountability."
"Very interesting, informative and a great wealth of knowledge and information"
"Decolonize and Rize delivered an outstanding session to our small business clients. Their presentation was incredibly insightful and shifted perspectives and offered solutions and resources to integrate economic reconciliation into business practices. Their professionalism was evident throughout, making the session both engaging and highly informative."
Decolonize and Rize delivered two exceptional programs for our employees at Deloitte in Oct. 2024. The first session, "Recognizing and Navigating Burnout from an Indigenous Lens," provided invaluable insights into mental health in the workplace, offering a unique and culturally rich perspective that resonated deeply with our employees. The second session was a virtual meditation and breathwork class that left participants feeling rejuvenated and equipped with practical techniques to manage stress.
Both sessions were expertly facilitated, engaging, and highly relevant to our current workplace needs. Vanessa and Ariana demonstrated remarkable professionalism and expertise, making the entire experience seamless and impactful. Their ability to connect with our team and deliver content that was both informative and transformative was truly impressive.
I highly recommend Decolonize and Rize as facilitators for any organization looking to enhance their workplace wellness programs. Their approach is not only effective but also deeply enriching, making a significant positive impact on our employees' well-being.
