Dr. Gigi Burke
What's happening matters, and how you meet it matters.
This is for Black and Brown women who are...
In midlife and living through changes that deserve care without being rushed.
These changes may show up in the body. They may show up in energy. They may show up in how life or work begins to feel unfamiliar. You do not need to arrive with clarity. You do not need to have it figured out.
But you are already in something that matters.
When Familiar Ways No Longer Fit
There are times when familiar ways of moving through life stop working as they once did.
You may still be doing what you have always done, but it feels heavier or less sustainable. Your body may be asking for something different before you have words for it. The pace that once worked may no longer feel possible.
Nothing may be wrong, but something is no longer aligned.
About The Work
I offer one-to-one, time-limited, non-clinical support for times when the ways you usually move through life no longer feel workable. The work is grounded in paying attention to what is happening and in not moving past yourself in the process.
From there, the work takes different forms depending on what is needed.
Unrushed™ is for times when you need to stay with what is happening and move at a pace your body can hold. It focuses on being with bodily and relational changes in midlife, with attention to timing, capacity, and what you are noticing.
Risk, Responsibility, and Choice™ is for times when something is asking more of you. It focuses on making choices about how to move, with care for what is at stake and what feels possible.
Both Unrushed and Risk, Responsibility, and Choice are offered as contained, one-to-one spaces where there is room to be with what you are living day to day, whether you are staying with what is present or making choices about how to move.
About Me
I work primarily one to one with Black and Brown women, bringing steady attention to what they are living and what it asks of them. My approach is shaped by lived experience and by years of staying closely engaged with how people make sense of change, responsibility, and what no longer fits.
I stay actively engaged in the work, with care for timing, boundaries, and what is actually present.
