A restorative and transformative justice practice for individuals and organizations working toward collective liberation — offering mediation, restorative conversations, and conflict support outside the legal system, grounded in abolitionist values.

Transform With Us

This process is meant to encourage collaborative and creative solution making to two or more folks who are in conflict. We offer mediation services for workplaces, small businesses, neighbors, tenant/landlord, house/roommate disputes.

Mediation

Transformative / Restorative Justice & Practices

These processes are centered around interpersonal and community harm and harm prevention. We offer this type of conversation after harms have been done or provide support to learn practices that will help with harm reduction.

In the event that the other person/people might not want to mediate, one-on-one, we help you strategize for a current issue you are facing.

Conflict Coaching

We teach interactive courses that help you skill-build, create awareness, and become stronger and more confident in your ability to communicate and understand yourself and others.

Training

All services provided will have a trauma informed, power analysis and liberatory lens.

About Us


Too often, when harm happens, the focus is on consequences.
At Ride The Wave, we ask a different question: what does everyone need to move forward?

Through a liberatory framework, we transform conflict from something to avoid into a pathway for healing, accountability, and growth. Our work is grounded in restorative and transformative justice practices, supporting individuals and organizations in breaking cycles of harm and building toward equity and connection.

We offer mediation, conflict coaching, and trainings, creating spaces rooted in care, reflection, and learning. We believe people are more than the harm they’ve caused or experienced—and that conflict, when approached with intention, can be a catalyst for transformation and liberation.

Our Framework

Collective Liberation

We recognize our struggles are connected and that we must work together to create the kind of world we want to see.

We believe in fostering an environment where you feel empowered to be
your bravest self.

Bravery

Collaboration

We can only create the world we want to see if we work together.

Justice

We are dedicated to creating a just and equitable world, where everyone feels safe to express their needs.

What Clients are Saying

”Wind had a wonderful, calming and thoughtful approach with my teenage son. They were able to get to the level of my child in order for him to fully understand and be transparent with every comment and question.

I thoroughly appreciated Wind and their approach and would recommend them to anyone looking for an honest, humble and friendly restorative justice facilitator. It made this situation less stressful for everyone involved because there was a knowledgeable and kind person leading.”
