Join Prentis Hemphill—acclaimed author of What It Takes to Heal and host of the Finding Our Way podcast—for an evening conversation exploring the connections between personal healing and collective transformation. Drawing from their work as a clinical psychologist and somatics practitioner, Hemphill reflects on how practices of care, presence, and embodiment can reshape leadership, activism, and everyday life.

 

This public conversation between Prentis and MacArthur Fellow and NYU Professor Nicole R. Fleetwood invites us to imagine new ways of being with ourselves and each other in pursuit of justice and belonging.
