Sarah Buino
Sarah Buino, LCSW, RDDP, CADC, CDWF, NMT, is a multi-talented therapist, speaker, educator, and visionary founder of Head/Heart Therapy, Inc, and Head/Heart Business Therapy. As an esteemed member of Loyola University Chicago's adjunct faculty and dynamic podcast host, she passionately advocates for personal growth and healing journeys.
In her podcast, Conversations With a Wounded Healer, Sarah explores self-healing for care-giving professionals, empowering listeners to recognize the profound impact of their healing on those they serve.
Sarah Suzuki
Sarah Suzuki, LCSW, CRADC, is a trailblazer in recovery and behavior change. As the founder of Chicago Compass Counseling, she champions identity-affirming change that confronts systemic racism. Known for her 'invitations to accountability,' Sarah has spurred transformative change in over 60 organizations, including the FBI and major conferences.
In her personal life, she finds balance in non-fiction writing, serving on the board of Sista Afya Community Care, and cross-country skiing. More than a leader, Sarah is a devoted co-conspirator in systemic liberation. Her primary aim is to center recovery as the key to equitable and accessible care for all.
Is your organization passionate about making a positive difference but feeling stifled by the pervasive effects of white supremacy culture?
You're not alone in this struggle.
Rest assured, these challenges don't reflect the worth of your organization or team members. Instead, they bring to light the societal conditioning we've all undergone - an instinct to navigate and withstand a system overshadowed by toxicity.
When opportunities to effect systemic change through leadership or business practices arise, they give us a priceless opening to alter the narrative. But remember, no one can transform an entire system single-handedly. Collective challenges demand collective solutions. That's why we at "The Sarahs" are wholly devoted to building connections with community members like you as we tread the path toward collective transformation.
