Welcome! I’m Valerie.

I transformed my mid-life identity crisis into my calling—and you can, too!

Now I transform and empower diverse leaders and teams—including Black women and women of color—in fostering trustworthy, authentic, compassionate, and connected workspaces.

Supporting you with: decades of training, clarity, understanding, integrity, and service grounded in mindfulness, spiritual awakening, social equity, pilgrimage and leadership development.

About Valerie
Hope Leans Forward: Teachings from a Black Buddhist & Quaker | Valerie Brown

HOPE LEANS FORWARD

My newest book! A unique synthesis of Buddhist and Quaker wisdom and mindfulness, centering real-life BIPOC experiences of transformation that inspire and challenge.


I wrote this book during a time of profound personal grief and loss as a way to heal and transform, to move toward bravery, to stretch in the direction of goodness, kindness, forgiveness, patience, and vulnerability.

I was inspired by everyday acts of bravery and stories of diverse voices to get me through, and I share this and more with you.


Available now.
