On this episode of Another Way To See It, We sit down with our good friend Tracy Holemeyer to have a frank and heartfelt discussion about privilege. Privilege has been defined as: Access to, or enjoying rights or advantages, simply by membership of a particular group or identity. These rights/advantages are often unearned and/or undeserved.
Privilege is a "hot button" topic lately and it's our hope that by sharing our experience of exploring our own privilege we offer a sort of guide for your own exploration of your privileges and how you consciously utilize these for not only your benefit but also to help others that may not share the same access, luxury, rights, and privileges that you do. Joseph Campbell said, "The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are." What are the barriers that keep you from knowing and expressing yourself?
Tracy Holemeyer is a soul worker, self-healing coach, meditation guide, breathwork facilitator, speaker, and writer. She helps people align and heal into their truth and purpose.

Personal growth and self-healing require a foundation from which we are able to safely access and contextualize our personal history. For many people there simply aren’t the foundational components to engage in this work.
Some of the building blocks of this foundation include:
Awareness including language, and education
Safety
Time
Resources of support
Mentorship or guidance
Financial means
Community
