Discouraged by disparities in women’s health (and the health of all people marginalized by
our healthcare system)
Conscious Anti-Racism: Tools for Self-Discovery, Accountability, and Meaningful Change in Healthcare
Empower yourself to confidently speak up against racism, confront your privilege, and recognize your biases in a way that serves the patients most directly impacted by racism and racial bias.
If you feel...
Overwhelmed by increasing levels of racial tension and anti-immigrant sentiment
Motivated to confront implicit and explicit bias and racism in healthcare
Frustrated because you want to do something about it, but don't know where to start
Hesitant to commit to doing anti-racism work because it feels uncomfortable and painful, no matter what your identity
Then this CME-accredited course is for you.
Here's why...
If we don’t align our actions with our values, racial tensions, bias, and distrust will continue to lead to poor outcomes for our patients (and our society).
The public health impact of racial bias on the health of people of color has been well-validated, affecting both the patient-physician relationship and treatment decisions and outcomes.
Racial bias, both implicit and explicit, affects our patients in many ways, including inequitable treatment and creating a stressful and unhealthy environment. It also deeply impacts our colleagues and trainees with marginalized identities. It is critical that physicians and other healthcare professionals are aware of this reality for patients and colleagues of color from all financial backgrounds.
Many healthcare professionals learn about race relations (and the resulting disparities in healthcare outcomes) from the news, medical journals, or reading books. These sources often point out problems, and they rarely provide practical ways to address these issues. As a result, there's no meaningful change because people who want to learn more about these topics:
Are often addressed in a manner meant to blame and shame... leading to defensiveness and no open dialogue
Don’t know how to handle feelings of guilt or frustration...and they find that potential conflict is more comfortable and less risky
Avoid sharing what they think and exposing their "learning mistakes"... fearing that they will offend the people they want to help
Passively promote posts and hashtags on social media and wear clothes that show their awareness...without doing the active work would actually make a difference.
What happens if we do nothing? If we keep doing what we’ve been doing?
Healthcare professionals have the responsibility to recognize and examine their prejudices and biases so they can better address the ways that the healthcare system perpetuates inequality.
If "well-meaning" healthcare professionals continue to avoid authentic conversations and uncomfortable feelings about race, there will be little meaningful change in health disparities and equity in healthcare access and delivery.
As anti-racism educators, we know how uncomfortable
it can be to truly do the work of anti-racism.
We've found an answer that works. Here's our story:
Dr. Jill Wener, co-founder of Conscious Anti-Racism, is a board-certified physician, and back in 2011, she was dealing with severe professional burnout. To overcome this, she learned some meditation and mindfulness techniques that healed her burnout and completely changed her life. To help her patients and coaching clients, she became certified in meditation and tapping, also known as the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).
These proven tools decrease stress, improve physical and emotional health, and uncover ways that our thoughts and beliefs can prevent us from living an optimal life.
Five years later, in 2016, she was thriving professionally, but she felt unsettled in her life outside of work. She felt like the political climate in the United States was changing. There was a palpable "ugliness" in the way people interacted with each other.
She wrote a blog post after the 2016 election, describing how she processed her feelings about this new reality. She was pretty proud of her work... until a friend commented that her well-meaning post rang of "white privilege".
She immediately became defensive. She felt like her friend was calling her a racist!
Fortunately, she didn’t get stuck in an unproductive, defensive state for too long.
Mindfulness and meditation have taught her that when she becomes defensive, it means that there's something deeper that she needs to address, process, and learn. The guilt, anger, and frustration she felt when she heard “white privilege” were the exact things that she needed to address.
She went on a path of self-discovery and accountability that took her through books, retreats, and authentic conversations in diverse neighborhood discussion groups.
Fortunately, she didn’t get stuck in an unproductive, defensive state for too long.
As she learned more about racial dynamics and social justice, she realized that she had lived a privileged existence.
Her life experiences sheltered her from understanding what it meant to navigate the world as a person of color, and this limited understanding affected the care she provided for her patients and how she navigated the world in general.
As a progressive, educated, and all-around good person, she thought she was exempt from being racist. But now, she was learning about the behaviors, beliefs, and systems that perpetuated racism in her personal and professional life.
She discovered that she may have unintentionally contributed to these unjust systems, both in and out of healthcare. So, she pledged to be more accountable, committed to racial justice, and she started her journey to do better.
She experienced discomfort and questioned her core beliefs as she became more conscious of the world around her. Throughout the process, the mindfulness tools she's practiced since 2011 have helped to disarm her defensiveness so she can remain open to learning and change.
And then she met Dr. Maiysha Clairborne, a family and integrative physician, Master Neurolinguistic Programming coach and trainer, Conscious Communication coach, and the other co-founder of Conscious Anti-Racism.
Dr. Maiysha had also felt called to contribute her expertise to dismantling systemic racism, and to further explore how she and other people of color have been impacted by internalized racism.
They both knew instantly that together, they could combine their expertise as physicians and mind-body practitioners with our experiences coming from different racial backgrounds to help people of all racial identities do the work to dismantle racism- both internally and externally.
The unique partnership between Dr. Maiysha and Dr. Jill provides a multidimensional, trauma-informed journey for their clients to do the crucial internal and external work required to fight for racial equity in a well-informed, meaningful way, in order to have the most impact on their organizations and their lives.
This work is challenging, but we are living in challenging times.
Confronting systemic racism and fighting for racial justice can stir up difficult emotions.
Fortunately, we've developed some practical tools that will help you overcome these challenges.
Conscious Anti-Racism, through its live trainings, bestselling book and this CME-accredited online course, provides practical, evidence-based tools that help people of all identities lean into the discomfort and understand the impact of racism, so they can contribute in a sustainable way to eradicating systemic oppression and inequality.
These tools also equip people with a lived experience of racism to process and heal from racialized trauma.
The Conscious Anti-Racism curriculum, which has been curated to maximize the online learning experience in this course, focuses on increasing resilience and emotional intelligence around race, to equip people with the personal skills needed to recognize and address the insidious ways that racism shows up in their daily lives, no matter their racial or other identity.
We share these tools with you in the CME-accredited course Conscious Anti-Racism: Tools for Self-Discovery, Accountability, and Meaningful Change in Healthcare.

This Course Has Helped These People,
And It Will Help You Too
“I struggled alone with the emotions, conflict and discomfort that comes with learning that which we were not taught growing up. Access to a resource such as this to help deal with those issues would have been a great help.” G. Schisla
"Studying the characteristics of white supremacy culture provided an effective framework in which to build out the additional learning modules. This course gave me the courage to discuss race with my co-workers with an open heart and the ability to listen, because I was able to take myself out of the equation. I recommend this course for anyone open and willing to look deeper at their own biases and confront the instances of racism in their work environment." L. Wright, Nurse
“I feel the real life examples will make this relatable and relevant to everyone. This type of work is long overdue…” K. Arnold, Physician
"I was overwhelmed. I was full of passion but too full of emotion to be able to express myself or take appropriate action when face with those with opposing views. I had committed to educating myself but was really lost on how to begin. I learned about ways to channel and process what my body was feeling in response to all the information and stress that was coming in. This gave me a way to process what I was feeling. I am more personally aware of my conversations with People of Color, especially my patients. I feel that by leading by example in my interactions, my personal vulnerability in my experiences and new learnings, and the courage to initiate conversations has a fire all of its own." K. Jones, ICU Nurse
"Living in middle Georgia and treating a racially diverse population of patients, and working with a racially diverse group of people, my own judgement and bias bubbles up EVERY SINGLE DAY. Applying those tools to process the sensations I was feeling when faced with my bias on race wasn't on my radar until this course. I see the tools I've been exposed to in this course as necessary to break down those old myths I've been holding as truths. I don't think it's possible to truly be anti racist advocates if we don't have the tools to crack open our hearts and minds." R. McInnis, Mother-Baby Nurse
"Dr. Wener and Dr. Clairborne have developed a groundbreaking journey of self-discovery that confronts the deep-seated beliefs and behaviors that lead to social and racial inequality. Her expertise in meditation and tapping is uniquely merged with anti-racism work to help participants change the way they interact with the world around them and prepare them to make profound changes in their consciousness and communities." Dr. N. Peoples
This course doesn't just help individuals. The Conscious Anti-Racism training curriculum helps organizations of all sizes meet their anti-oppression and equity goals:
In a research study using this Conscious Anti-Racism online course at an inpatient child psychiatry unit, there was a decrease in restraints of Black patients from 43% to 18% after 215 (>50%) staff participated in online training.
All racial disparities in restraint rates were eliminated.
In addition, scores on the Harvard Implicit Association Test showed a statistically significant decrease in implicit bias.
The Pittsburgh Business Group on Health participated in the Conscious Anti-Racism training w/100% participation from their team and 60% participation from their board, which allowed them to align as an organization to make major decisions around their focus on health equity.
They launched a non-profit, Bridges 4 Health Equity, which has implemented two major grant funded projects to make a significant impact in health inequity.
They implemented equity-alignment into board requirements.
They developed an equity pledge to encourage the professional community be held accountable. >150 people signed or recorded the pledge and >500 people visited the pledge site.
When you enroll in Conscious Anti-Racism: Tools for Self-Discovery, Accountability, and Meaningful Change in Healthcare, you’ll get the tools to…
Acknowledge that implicit bias affects patient care and consciously move towards treating all patients equitably
Be emotionally equipped to acknowledge what we can do as individuals to change the world around us
Not feel intimidated by the strong feelings that arise from the type of "deep work" that leads to transformational change
Empower yourself to speak up confidently against racism, confront biases, and recognize privilege in a way that serves the patients who are most directly impacted by racism and racial bias
Continue your professional development. This course is accredited for 12 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™, as well as CE credits for Nursing, Pharmacy, Respiratory Therapy, Social Work, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Nutrition/Dietician, Speech Therapy, Psychology and Audiology.

INTRODUCTION: Introduction to Conscious Anti-Racism
Welcome to the course! In this module, we share the philosophy of the Conscious Anti-Racism journey that you’ll be experiencing in this course, we’ll introduce you to your course facilitators, and we’ll discuss the core principles and terms used throughout the course. We’ll discuss what anti-racism is, and how it affects people of color in our healthcare system and in our society. You’ll also learn about trauma, the Window of Tolerance and how to care for yourself as you go through this course.
MODULE 1: Mindfulness, Awareness, and Your Senses
We are emotional beings, and our reactions are often at the mercy of our thoughts and emotions. Despite our reactive nature, we can learn to observe our emotions and use them as tools to discover what we need to work on within ourselves. In this module, we learn about mindfulness. This helps us deal with the difficult feelings that arise when talking about racism. When our emotions don't control us, we become more aware, rational and productive in our decision making.
MODULE 2: The Origins of Bias
Did you know that all people have bias? And that bias isn’t always a bad thing? This module will discuss the neurologic origins of bias and the importance of recognizing and acknowledging our bias in anti-racism work.
MODULE 3: The History of Race and Racism
Without knowing where we came from, it’s much more difficult to dismantle systems of oppression that have existed for hundreds of years. In this module, you’ll learn about the history of race and racism and how it continues to impact our society today.
MODULE 4: Learning To Recognize Uncomfortable Emotions About Racism
In this module, we begin to confront the uncomfortable feelings that arise from recognizing racism. It’s natural to have physical responses to strong emotions, especially when dealing with defensiveness, anger, guilt, or shame. This discomfort can lead to withdrawal and inaction. We will learn how to recognize negative feelings, and how to process them, so we can more successfully do the equity work that needs to be done- for our patients, for our colleagues and trainees, and for society as a whole.
MODULE 5: The Characteristics of White Supremacism Culture
It’s not always obvious how racism and bias show up- at home, in the healthcare system, and beyond. In this module you’ll dive deep into the characteristics of white supremacism culture (also called Dominant Culture): what they are, how to recognize them as they show up in your life, and what to do about it.
MODULE 6: Social Determinants of Health, Part 1
In this module, we'll start our 2-part discussion with Dr. Stacie Schmidt on Social Determinants of Health and how they affect almost every aspect of the patient experience within the healthcare system.
MODULE 7: Your Negative Reactions are Agents for Meaningful Change
When we have strong negative reactions to a person who is different from us, that person might reflect something that we need to change in ourselves. A defensive reaction can also reveal what needs to change within us. When we recognize and embrace our shortcomings, we can stop being negative and judgmental. This consciousness allows us to address anti-racism in a self-aware manner.
MODULE 8: Cultivating Compassion For The Self, And For Others
We need to have compassion for ourselves and for others. Self-improvement requires that we deal with the negative things that we're not proud of. Nobody's perfect, and we need to embrace where we are right now. For doctors, in particular, this might make us feel vulnerable. In this module, we help you to remain compassionate as you become a better version of yourself. You can apply this teaching to your everyday life immediately.
MODULE 9: Intersectionality
Anti-racism isn’t just about race. It’s about lifting up people with all marginalized identities. Join Dr. Suzi Lopez as she discusses her own experiences with racism and how different identities intersect to create a unique lived experience for everyone.
MODULE 10: Tapping- A Powerful Tool To Process Stress, Bias And Specific Emotions Relating To Antiracism
Uncovering implicit biases and ‘getting it wrong’ can be an emotional experience. Emotions are not good or bad; they're not right or wrong. As we go through this process, we need to extend ourselves some grace. Tapping (also called EFT, or the Emotional Freedom Technique) is an evidence-based technique that helps us process these difficult emotions. Tapping helps to overcome stress, shame, and defensiveness, the exact emotions that often prevent personal growth. It is also a powerful tool for self-care.
MODULE 11: Social Determinants of Health, Part 2
In this module, Dr. Stacie Schmidt continues the discussion about Social Determinants of Health. Learn to recognize the historical impact of racism and get ready to take action to improve health equity.
MODULE 12: Communication and Difficult Conversations
Speaking up when we encounter racism is challenging. “Ally” and "partner" are not only nouns, they're also verbs. Being an ally in antiracism work is a constant, active process. Regardless of our racial identity, we will all face situations where we may need to confront racism in our personal and professional lives, and we also need to be aware of how our own words and actions may harm People of Color (and what to do to repair that damage). In this module, we'll discuss how to approach difficult conversations about race, and we’ll discuss how to overcome our emotions in challenging situations so that we are more likely to speak up for others.
MODULE 13: Communication Techniques
Learning to read body language and putting yourself in another person’s shoes are essential skills in anti-racism work, but they’re not always easy to do. In this module, Dr. Maiysha discusses how to do both.
MODULE 14: Guided Integration Process
As you move towards the completion of the course, your journey is far from over. In this module, Dr. Maiysha and Dr. Jill lead you through a guided integration process to consolidate and integrate everything you’ve learned and inspire your vision moving forward.
MODULE 15: Moving Forward and Taking Action
Now that you have the tools to successfully engage in anti-racism work, it’s time to take action! We’re all about accountability. In this module, we’ll guide you through the process of creating your Conscious Anti-Racism Action Plan, so that you can continue the positive momentum in your work- both in the healthcare setting and beyond.

Still Have Questions?
What is Anti-racism?
Anti-Racism is a way to describe policies or ideas that oppose racism. People of all races can be anti-racists. We'll go into a lot more detail about anti-racism in the course.

But I'm not racist! Why do I need this course?
Some people define a racist as someone who believes that one race is superior to another.
But when you consider a more accurate and inclusive definition: someone who supports racist policy through their actions, inaction or ideas, we can see that "racist" can apply to many of us. How many times have we assumed racist beliefs based on where a person lives or their political party?
Besides understanding what an anti-racist is, this course helps us to understand terms like privilege, unconscious bias, and how good people can unintentionally perpetuate racist systems in this country.
But we don't stop there. We give you the tools to be accountable and make transformative change. In the process, you'll learn to recognize your own limits, embrace where you are now, and make an authentic change, so you can contribute to the movement for social justice in a meaningful way.

Do I need experience with anti-racism work to enroll in the course?
Absolutely not! Everyone is welcome. We'll spend the first module going over core principles and definitions of anti-racism and how it affects people of color in our society. The rest of the course focuses on tools and techniques to help you show up in the world as an anti-racist in the most impactful way possible. We can't wait to share this information and these techniques with you!

Is this course only for white people?
We welcome people of all races to take this course.
This course will help white allies be better informed and better prepared to challenge their own privilege, racism, and implicit bias. In the United States, privilege can arise just from being part of the white majority. This privilege overrides class, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status or gender. Being aware of this helps us understand why systemic racism continues.
However, this course is not only for white people. The techniques covered in the course can help everyone to process the difficult emotions and experiences related to racism, they can help to get a deeper understand of internalized racism, and they can be used for self-care and true healing.
