Coaching can feel like a solo sport, but it doesn’t have to!


Join Becky Mollenkamp and Taina Brown for a free live workshop on October 30th at 2 p.m. ET where we’ll explore what it really takes to grow as a coach rooted in liberation, not just business.


🌟 In this session, you’ll learn:

  • What liberation can look like for you and your clients
  • The 3 essentials every coach needs for a sustainable, liberatory practice
  • How community can fuel your growth with fresh ideas, accountability, and support

This isn’t just another workshop—it’s a doorway into deeper connection with coaches who share your values.


👉 Reserve your free spot today: https://evt.to/eodmahasw

(If you can’t make it live, sign up anyway—replay will be available!)

You ever feel like the world is on fire and you're holding the matches and a bucket of water? Yeah, us too. In this raw and candid convo, Becky and Taina unpack their experiences around the No Kings protest, the complicated dynamics of white allyship, what it means to show up (and what it doesn’t), and the impossible standards placed on parents, especially moms. From the emotional labor of unlearning white supremacy to the tension between safety and activism, this episode dives deep into the mess of trying to do liberation right—and how there’s no one right way. This one’s for anyone caught between burnout, rage, and hope.


📝 Discussed in this episode

  • Why Becky took her son to his first protest (and why he was terrified)
  • The emotional toll of being "the good citizen" in a broken system
  • Why showing up looks different for white folks vs. people of color
  • The white guilt and self-righteousness loop we all have to confront
  • The truth about public schools and their real purpose
  • Taina’s take on “anti-mothering” and emotional labor
  • Generational shifts in parenting and emotional intelligence
  • Why curiosity can be an antidote to judgment
  • The bullshit of performative allyship (and why praise-kinks are real)
  • There’s no gold star for liberation—but we want one anyway
