Inner Field Trip: 30 Days of Personal Exploration, Collective Liberation, and Generational Healing

by Leesa Renee Hall

“Combining the powerfully creative tools of journaling and expressive arts, the Inner Field Trip is a must have book for anyone who wants to become a good ancestor. Carry it with you wherever you go.” — Layla F. Saad, New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author of Me and White Supremacy

A powerful 30-day workbook journey intended to help the reader lovingly confront their inner oppressor and come to terms with their own internalized biases.

Based on mental wellness advocate and writer Leesa Renee Hall's longstanding work, Inner Field Trip provides a user-friendly, nonjudgmental, and introspective template for exploring our inner biases about race and other forms of inequity. The cornerstone of Hall's model involves confronting one's "Inner Oppressor."

The Inner Oppressor is a manifestation of internalized cultural messages that drive us to judge others but also works to sabotage our own needs. This 30-day program in workbook form takes readers—who become active participants in the experience—on a deep dive from which they will emerge changed.

I received this stunning work today, after SO many intense happenings and I am in awe. Leesa's prose is exactly what I have been needing within my spiritual practice. Immediately I felt seen in that uncomfortable, yet important way. My inner oppressor is seething - as they should be. I am coming back after I have traversed 30 days of this inner work.

If you’re looking for a thoughtful process to work on your unconscious bias take a look at this book. I appreciated that it was self-paced, allowed time for self-reflection, and acknowledges this can be difficult and emotional work. Leesa mixes reading, writing, and drawing (don’t be afraid). I also enjoyed having the mood tracker.

An excellent, in depth play book for the rigorous inner explorations necessary for us to do work for social Justice. Absurdly helpful, with so many great prompts and lots of structured practice.


Full disclosure - I am a mentor and guide in this community, under Leesa’s leadership. Come check out Inner Field Trip’s Mighty Network for support as you go along this journey!

Self reflection is crucial to collective liberation. Leesa's gentle guidance has been so helpful in allowing me to show up for myself and my communities. I will be inner field tripping for the rest of my life, and I invite you to do the same!
