The Founders

Macala "Kala" Lacy, LMFT & CYT
+ Ancestors

My name is Macala Lacy, but you can call me Kala (pronounced: kay-uh; pronouns: she/they)! I was given this life to support the healing journeys of LGBTQ+ Black and people of color. I use my knowledge and experience as a licensed yoga-psychotherapist (marriage & family therapist and certified yoga teacher) to provide historically oppressed communities across the nation with resources for physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual wellness.

​

The Well Healing was co-founded by myself and my ancestors in 2017.

I consider it my responsibility to provide, fight for, and challenge conceptualizations of care in oppressive spaces. As poet and activist Audre Lorde reminds us, our healing and wellness is preservation, an act of political warfare. Centering our individual and collective health ensures sustainable resistance in a world designed to destroy and disconnect us from ourselves and each other.

"It is our duty to fight for our freedom. It is our duty to win. We must love each other and protect each other. We have nothing to lose but our chains."
