Amber Ontiveros, Gen X, joins us to discuss her book ‘Heal The Four Woundings, A Guide to End Discord and Discrimination’. After a life-altering near-death experience, Amber recognized the limitations of traditional racial equity conversations and was inspired to innovate. Amber is an Unconscious Bias coach and has crafted tools grounded in the neuroscience of unconscious bias to heal herself from beliefs that result in discord, discrimination and oppression.
Here are the topics we covered in the episode:
