THE BOOK. THE PROCESS. THE JOURNEY HOME.

SOUL RECOVERY

For over two decades, the Soul Recovery™ process and accompanying book have resulted in profound transformations in the lives of countless individuals, providing a beacon of hope for those who were grappling with the complexities of self-healing.

Soul Recovery provides a clear and comprehensive roadmap to self-discovery for individuals, groups, organizations, and communities. By seamlessly blending fundamental spiritual principles from the 12 Steps of Recovery with cutting-edge modalities like The Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), this program facilitates sustained healing. It addresses self-destructive thoughts, emotional turmoil, and behavioral patterns, dismantling feelings of unworthiness, inadequacy, anxiety, and shame.

Soul Recovery delves deep into life patterns, cultivating a soul-centered awareness so transformative that dependencies and problems dissolve in its wake. While its roots lie in the language of addiction, the lessons and practices of Soul Recovery resonate universally, transcending age, background, and life experience. It stands as an inclusive, empowering spiritual practice for all.

OUR WORK

COMPASSIONATE ACCOUNTABILITY

Compassionate Accountability - Healing Unconscious Racial Bias is an extension of Soul Recovery that tactfully addresses the underlying root causes of unconscious biases, and emotionally paves the way for cultural competence in individuals and businesses.

The Compassionate Accountability Training is a unique approach that combines empathy, understanding, and active listening, with a commitment to the personal healing of individuals and organizations. This is NOT your typical DEIB training. Ester takes you on a deep exploration - to the root of individual and collective biases and blind spots, providing you with solutions for sustainable change. From that place of healing, business strategies can be implemented with success. This is how we change the world, one heart, one mind, at a time.

We believe that DEIB training should be seen as a continuous process rather than a one-time event. We encourage participants to engage in ongoing learning, such as attending workshops, reading literature, and participating in discussion groups. We provide resources for further education and support to help individuals maintain their commitment to compassionate accountability in their personal and professional lives.

Check out my virtual, on demand and live trainings below. I am also pleased to customize a program to suit your scheduling and organization's needs.

May we all find peace and harmony in our relationships. - Ester Nicholson

ENDORSEMENT

Jessica Colin-Greene JD
Vice President of Programs
High Watch Recovery Center

Ester Nicholson's Compassionate Accountability training provides a unique 12-step and trauma-informed approach to DEI, unlike any other method we have encountered. Ester asks all of us to unpack our racial trauma and to connect in mutual compassion and vulnerability. Through Compassionate Accountability, we have a doorway into the deeper levels of hurtful, discriminatory behaviors, beliefs, and narratives; she arms us with the tools to shine light on their sources and effects. Ester's perspective has informed our approach to very sensitive, heated, and painful topics that once felt untouchable.
