Mission:

WRITE THIS SECOND’s Mission: Lead transformative workshops to facilitate community empowerment; from poetry to EMBBODI Atunement Sessions and beyond, at WRITE THIS SECOND we bear witness to our lives as an act of reclamation, to cultivate emotional evolution and a self-acceptance revolution.

We write to reclaim life
to recover consciousness
to resist feelings of unworthiness
to understand ourselves
to define ourselves

We write to understand the difference
between what forms our anger
and what ties our tongues
