Process over Production: Healing, Growing and Embodying Our Humanity
Ebony Williams ’08 believes the link, the thread, the piece of yarn, that connects her life work is her belief in process. While it’s common that human beings spend much of our time focused on the problem and the solution to obstacles that arise from living, the middle part, the journey we go through to reach our desired end point is where we learn the most. It is where we are presented with the most opportunities to grow and experience our humanity, but it is also where we spend the least amount of time reflecting. In this talk Williams’ discusses the focus of her work, creating opportunities for individuals to indulge in the luxury of their process in order to heal.
