Grounded in critical race, trauma, organizational culture, and systems theories, this chapter explores critical qualitative methodology merged with phenomenological philosophy. This grounding in phenomenology aids in a true embodied exploration and understanding of meaning making. It is the inclusion of critical qualitative research methodology that aids in understanding the broader context that shapes said meaning and experience. Embodied critical analysis™, a method Rodrigues developed, includes four phases where participants' beliefs, feelings, and actions are explored as well as culture and power. Identifying the connection between Black educator well-being and direct supervisor impact, the interview protocol allowed for data on intrapersonal, interpersonal, cultural, and institutional levels of experience to be generated. Thus, integrating a multi-dimensional approach to healing where focus on the Black educator, the supervisor, and the organization are interwoven serves as an integral approach to engaging holistic practice in research design.
