Erica Lee

Erica is a "cultural auntie" who aligns with methods for building wealthy, healthy, happy communities. Her work as a visionary justice keeper and elder sister highlights the relationship between systems design, the movement of movements, and social impact entrepreneurship. Erica has served as a recovery coach, mindfulness teacher, holistic health educator, restorative justice practitioner, and community organizer. Her work centers institutional accountability and social justice capacity building through strategy development and restorative justice. She has partnered with technical colleges, social justice advocates, and public institutions to help them ‘read the tea leaves’ during seasons of change. Erica helps navigate groups through bottlenecks, allowing dynamics and organizational missions to better thrive. Her work has been informed by essential figures in her life such as her grandmother, family, beloved mentors, and friends. Elements of Erica's lifelong learning journey, such as healing autoimmunity, overcoming mental health challenges and working with her family in restaurants and restorative justice define how she understands the progress possible in one generation.

When not working, Erica is undergoing her auntie initiation with her newly born niece whom she adores, cooking up something delicious, galavanting around town to explore, or getting lost & found in the wild. She lives in an intentional co-living house in Denver, CO and is learning with her housemates how to live more communally.
