Facing Denial: White Fragility and the Untangle Method™
“We can't solve our problems if we are unwilling to locate them and are unable to accept we even have a problem.”
Imagine living in a world where denial is your safety net, but it’s also the very thing holding you back.

She sheds light on the concept of White Fragility, challenging the facade of being a 'good person' or 'non-racist' and urging listeners to confront uncomfortable truths about themselves. Angela doesn’t just stop at identifying the problem; she offers a way out through her 3-Step system of self-care, the Untangle Method™. This method combines neurobiology with creativity, making it both insightful and practical.
Through candid storytelling and relatable examples, Angela guides you on a journey to break free from these systemic advantages and align with dignity, grace, and equality for all. Whether you're battling addiction or simply seeking personal growth, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to open your eyes, mind, and heart to the realities we often choose to ignore.
