our Vision

SLC aims to center and cultivate healing for global majority communities—resourcing tools to address the intresectionality of intergenerational, interpersonal, and collective trauma. Through land-based wellness works, we actively co-create thriving communities and resurrect culturally vital practices.

why we do what we do
Sacred Land Collective is committed to providing spaces that are free from the limiting perspectives of the white gaze. We focus on creating environments devoted to imagination, deep rest, and meaningful collaboration. In an industry where the wellness marketplace often overlooks voices from the global majority, we aim to change that narrative. Join us in reflecting on our shared experiences as we cultivate a thriving collaborative future together, where wellness is accessible and inclusive for all.
