The Circle: Holding Space and Breaking Silence

Healing happens in community. In this episode, Dr. Malaika explores the sacred concept of The Circle — a space where everyone is equal, every story matters, and silence no longer holds us hostage. Through reflection and guided practice, she unpacks what it means to hold space with intention, to speak truth with compassion, and to rebuild trust where harm has occurred.
