A path to healing

This book offered so much insight on baggage I carried from a previous job to a new job I took. I am now able to work on my healing and create awareness to other women and women of color who my have these feelings and don’t know how to unpack them. Thank you Minda for this book to add to out tool kit of healing.

Powerful read!

Worth every moment! Minda is brilliant, brave, and on point. This is a must read for the ages...

Spoke to my Soul

Minda … you were right on time as this is a current issue I’m facing. Thanks for providing me with a resolve and peace of mind.

Forgove any amateurness of this ESSENTIAL READING

Despite thinking this book was amateurish, rambled at times, and assumed each reader gets each point and each microaggression - failing to point out the non-black readers' very blindspots being unlocked here, the book is nonetheless ESSENTIAL READING as the few (had to read quite a bit but they came) insights and advice make the book worth the read and vitally supplement our awareness gaps and survival arsenal. I repeat: a must read. I would do a revised edition aimed at spelling out and explaining issues, experienced and points to diverse readers, some of whom may just not get the depth od the issue.

Real, Raw, Actionable

Minda’s storytelling is powerful. It’s a deep look into the pain micro aggressions and other forms of racism cause people of color in the workplace. It’s a call to action for company’s to acknowledge this pain and it’s impact on staff. It’s also a great tool for those who experience racism in the workplace on healing. I am changed after experiencing this piece!

Flawless

Minda Harts effortlessly lays out the path to healing from race trauma at work like it’s the yellow brick road!

Uhhhhmmm

So many calls to action and introspective analysis. Heavy try light at the same time. So glad I listened!

Minda simply gets it!

Needless to say her lived experience, transparency and vulnerability is much appreciated and valued by readers who have similar experiences. The resources provided are beneficial as we embark on the journey to healing.

Spot on

So needed to hear this to affirm I am not alone. It has motivated me to press forward. Great resource.

Unfairness

I loved her book with professional relationships. Small businesses also go through these issues and hide behind nepotism and mesaugany. I applied her theory for the small business where I work.
