Values

What we value, we direct our consciousness and regenerative action to

The Transgenerational Regeneration Institute seeks to maintain balance in the following values:

  • Collaboration over appropriation

  • Racial justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion

  • Accountability for legacies of racism and oppression

  • Vulnerability and Humility

  • Regenerative action that benefits all living beings

  • The wisdom of different ways of knowing

  • The wisdom of the Ancestors and Ancestral traditions of each person as a unique guide to regenerative action

  • The wisdom of the body

  • The wisdom of Spirit and how it is experienced in each person

  • Transformation through a process of deconstruction and decolonization

  • Love as a value that fosters a desire to welcome change

  • Inspiration at every stage of the process of growth, death and rebirth

  • Reciprocity with all living beings

MEET THE AUTHOR

Dr. Ame Cutler is a transdisciplinary trauma theorist, regenerative strategist, and spiritual practitioner who refuses to separate healing from history—or transformation from accountability. She is the creator of the Regeneration Process and founder of the Transgenerational Regeneration Institute, a community-based platform for dismantling inherited systems of harm and restoring Ancestral, ecological, and relational integrity. 

With a PhD in Humanistic and Transpersonal Psychology, Dr. Cutler’s academic and practical work interrogates the cultural and psychological impacts of colonization, white supremacy, transgenerational trauma, and systemic oppression. Her scholarship is not theoretical—it’s embodied. Born into a white Anglo-Saxon Protestant lineage shaped by overwork, erasure, and inherited privilege, she has spent her life reclaiming what capitalism, Christianity, and settler logic tried to strip away: belonging, integrity, and Ancestral responsibility. 

Dr. Cutler specializes in the legacies of harm passed through both survivors and perpetrators. Her work illuminates how the very systems that create trauma—imperialism, extraction, racial capitalism—also dictate the terms of what healing is “allowed” to look like. She challenges the hyper-individualized models of Eurocentric psychotherapy and the depoliticized spiritual bypassing of the wellness industry. Instead, she offers a path grounded in somatic integrity, Ancestral listening, ecological repair, and systemic dismantling.
