Knowledge + Resilience = Power

Acknowledge a person's knowledge and their resilience, and she will show you her power. ~Dr. V

SCHOLAR ACTIVIST/AUTHOR/SPEAKER

Dr. Venus E. Evans-Winters (Dr. V) is a bold truth-teller, cultural worker and healer who interweaves humanizing dialogue and story-telling into her presentations and writing. The role of educators and healers is to help individuals, families, and communities gain knowledge about themselves, their history, and cultural traditions. Knowledge begins with self-understanding. Self-understanding contributes to feelings of self-worth in individuals and groups. Knowledge is abundance. Educators and social justice activists will be interested in reading my books, academic articles, and online commentary on the intersectionality of race, class, and gender in education, social identity, and psychological development.

Therapeutic Relationships
​Dr. Evans-Winters is
 an educator and a healer. Her formal academic training, personal survival of childhood trauma, and her appreciation for the joys and pains of Black womanhood have prepared her for both roles. She believes that we can begin to solve education and social problems by building trust and relationships with those whom we have chosen to serve. She uses an interdisciplinary/transdisciplinary approach in her teaching, therapy and coaching practices to help others rethink how they live, love, and learn.

Collective (Un)Consciousness
​Dr. Evans-Winters 
created Planet Venus to serve more individuals and groups! Visit her at www.planetvenusinstitute.com. She is interested in how individuals, groups and organizations (e.g. education or social welfare) might come to understand how interpersonal, social, gender-based violence and/or racial trauma impede on academic, personal, or professional development. She knows that we must heal collectively to transcend trauma in all of its manifestations.

 Radiate Power
​Dr. Evans-Winters asserts it'
s not enough to talk about trauma and resilience. Dr. V believes we need to talk about power. How do we use education, cultural awareness, and intention to bring forth the power of our youth, young women, and people of color--our society's most vulnerable social groups? In her keynotes and presentations, she responds to this question with research, stories, prose, and vignettes. As an author, professor, therapist, meditation teacher, and coach, Dr. V shares her secrets to personal and professional resilience.
