Cultural Wellbeing Architect & Educator

You’ve arrived at a space where learning and leadership breathe differently.
Here, education remembers its pulse — one that moves with the rhythms of care, belonging, and collective renewal.
This is not a place for conquest, but for connection; not for perfection, but for presence.

Turning discomfort into growth and connection


My work challenges long-standing omissions in education — especially the absence of African perspectives and the misunderstanding of women’s physical, energetic, and spiritual biochemistry.
Drawing inspiration from healing-centred thinkers such as Vusamazulu Credo Mutwa, Lana Jelenjev, Ruth King, Resmaa Menakem, and Dr. Litchfield Tshabalala, , I design pathways that restore balance through embodied awareness, racial healing, and collective care.

tailored experiences

Each experience I create is tailored — meeting individuals, families, and institutions where they are, and guiding them toward deeper connection and transformation.
From cultural sensitivity workshops in universities to racial awareness education for the care sector, from emotional wellbeing for teachers and parents to social learning for young people, every offering is part of a single movement:
a return to wholeness in how we teach, lead, and live.

 
 
I help students, educators, and nonprofits cultivate inner steadiness and decolonial ways of relating—so belonging becomes a daily practice, not a poster.
 
 

Pathways of Work

Education and transformation are not destinations — they are pathways

Each one begins in awareness and leads toward belonging.
As a Cultural Wellbeing Architect & Educator, I invite you to explore the three pathways through which this work unfolds:

Every pathway returns to the same place - a deeper rhythm of awareness, compassion and collective renewal.
 
 
 
 
 

pathway 1 - transforming systems through awareness

For universities, organisations, and community leaders ready to bridge difference with depth.


I offer consulting that moves beyond compliance into genuine transformation — creating environments where inclusion, wellbeing, and cultural literacy are living practices.

    • Curriculum Review & Co-Design

      • Review syllabi to identify Eurocentric dominance.

      • Suggest readings, scholars, and methodologies from African, Indigenous, Asian, and diasporic perspectives.

      • Develop guidelines for inclusive pedagogy.

    • Ongoing Coaching & Support

      • 1:1 or group coaching for academic leaders navigating institutional pushback.

      • Facilitate reflection spaces for students and faculty to sustain momentum.

      • Integrate life skills (e.g., empathy, resilience, dialogue) into their approach to curriculum reform.

    • Training & Awareness

      • Workshops for faculty and staff on unconscious bias, racial literacy, and the colonial roots of knowledge.

      • Facilitated dialogues to help staff process discomfort and resistance.

  • Raising awareness about the detrimental effects of omission in our school education systems and what to do about it.

 
 

Pathway 2 — Adekyere (Academy): Cultivating Embodied Learning

Education that remembers the body, the earth, and our shared humanity.

Through the Taimana Adekyerɛ Academy, I teach emotional wellbeing, cultural awareness, and truth and reconciliation in education — integrating personal growth with academic integrity.


Programmes include:

  • Raising awareness about the detrimental effects of omission in our school education systems and what to do about it.

  • Item description
 
 

Pathway 3 — Amansan (Community): Healing Together

Transformation deepens through connection.

Within the Taimana Amansan Community, we nurture spaces of dialogue, storytelling, and shared reflection — a network for those reimagining education, leadership, and care from the inside out.


Offerings include:

Truth & Reconciliation in Education

Every story begins somewhere — yet so many of our educational stories begin with an absence.
For generations, the knowledge, philosophies, and lived experiences of African peoples — and the deep wisdom of women’s bodies — have been silenced, simplified, or distorted within mainstream education.
This omission has shaped not only what we learn, but how we see ourselves, our communities, and our capacity to belong.

Truth & Reconciliation in Education is my ongoing campaign to make these absences visible and to create space for repair.
Through research, dialogue, and embodied practice, this initiative restores voices, perspectives, and rhythms long missing from classrooms, training programs, and leadership spaces.
It asks us not only to add content, but to shift consciousness — from extraction to relationship, from competition to reciprocity, from hierarchy to harmony.

Within this work, I collaborate with educators, parents, and community leaders to:

  • Design inclusive learning environments informed by multiple worldviews.

  • Develop curricula that honour cultural and gendered understandings of the human experience.

  • Offer reflection spaces that bring awareness to bias, empathy, and embodied accountability.

  • Co-create learning cycles aligned with natural and lunar rhythms, reconnecting education to the living systems it serves.

Truth & Reconciliation in Education is not a program — it is a movement toward integrity and wholeness in how we learn, teach, and lead.

When we reconcile with what has been left out, education becomes what it was always meant to be — a pathway home.
