Do you need written creative content with fresh views, authentic voice, and original framing? Creative content includes:

-articles, essays, critiques,

-presentations, and speeches;

-blog posts, email newsletters, and website content.

Content creation is informed by the client’s style guide, existing brand voice, the AP Stylebook or the Chicago Manual of Style, relevant additional style guides particular to social groups, and by the client’s archival and/or current publications.

Does your content need clarifying to reveal your mission, values and world-changing messages? Do you need support to deliver your messages powerfully and have the impact you intend?

My work helps organizations working for justice and social good communicate brilliantly.

• Comprehensive approach

• Build genuine audience connection

• Communications strategy

I will honor your organizational values and voice while applying trauma-informed, intersectional, belonging, and justice-oriented collective frameworks.

My work always educates: I will offer contextualized suggestions and choices to better inform your messages, including the use of trauma-informed language, conscious language, and anti-racist language.

Are you struggling with the strategy or execution of your communications plan? Are your messages creating unintended impact or inadvertent harm? Is your team finding it difficult to coordinate messaging efforts? Need help generating messaging that resonates?

I work through relationships and a collaborative process.

Together we will:

• Create clarity around any disconnects between good intentions and actual outcomes

• Identify desired objectives and measurable impacts

• Determine effective knowledge transfer and communications back-up for when unexpected events or staff changes occur.

One-on-one or small group coaching and mentoring

I will support your body-based healing business to create and implement equitable, inclusive practices that lead to belonging for your clients. Clients who belong will support your business in turn.

This work includes:

• Developing LGBTQIA+ inclusive practices, policies and procedures for the entire service, from intake to delivery to follow-up

• Building accessibility and equitable access practices for a variety of body sizes and abilities in your physical space.

• Transforming your customer relationship management practices from transactional to reciprocal.

In coaching sessions, I use the power of intuition, generative inquiry, motivational interviewing, somatic practices, and powerful questions to support your growth and transformation.

Every coaching session includes elements of trauma-informed mindfulness and somatic regulation practices. These approaches support you to move away from analytical and mind-based problem solving into a spacious awareness where intiutive answers, or inner knowing that resonates with your heart space, can arise.

I have over 25 years of experience coaching individuals to move past blocks and obstacles and into transformational healing.

Examples of coaching focuses:

• Developing capacity so you can clearly and easily express yourself
  

• Decolonizing your brain, dismantling the patterned violence of dominant culture, and white-body supremacy from your mind.

• Embodying liberatory thinking & beliefs as you work towards social justice, DEI, belonging and community organizing.

I’ve been speaking on a variety of stages since 2007, including conferences, health fairs, businesses and nonprofit organizations, health clinics, and colleges and universities.

Some of my favorite topics to speak about include:

• Creating a culture of collective care and reciprocity.

• Using active love practices to interrupt and dismantle interpersonal violence.

• Integrating conscious and inclusive language, consent, and trauma-informed practices.

• Why it’s important to create LGBTQ+ inclusive wellness and healing businesses.

• My experiences as a thriving, healing queer, nonbinary Femme who is a survivor of intimate partner violence, school bullying, sexual assault & systemic violence.

• How to counter violence and create belonging in Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging (DEI, DEIB) programs.
