Who We Are

A PLACE OF HER OWNâ„¢ (PLACE) is an art-based healing organization dedicated to transforming chronic heartache to resilience. We provide creative experiences, artistic tools and nurturing community to explore and address the effects of colonization and patriarchy on generational family patterns. 

We offer platforms to access intuition, practice self-agency, leadership and advocacy while releasing judgment, guilt, and shame.

Awareness is Curative.

Testimonials

  • To me, PLACE is a women of color leadership program that happens to utilize creativity, somatic awareness building, and community organizing. The seeds were planted by us all.

    Ahran Lee

  • I had a breakthrough where it became clear to me what the relationship among my 3 boxes/sections is. My "place" is where I always trust myself 100% (intuition) that I know how to take care of myself (self-love, self-care), so I can create freely (creativity, manifestation) without fear of overwhelm or strain from attracting energy to me.

    Emily Yamauchi

  • These women are indeed pattern shifters ... and because they represent diverse cultures, we have an illumination of the collective suffering and courage and impact of colonialism and patriarchy upon the entirely of humanity as witnessed by women.

    Krystal Rose

  • The tools I learned from PLACE workshops have continued to inspire my healing and transformative process.
