“Christina's class really helped me learn how to provide my clients with the care and resources they deserve. The class was well structured and accessible, Christina made me feel comfortable to have open discussions about the topics in the class. I feel I have a better understanding of how to support my clients and ways I can do that. I definitely recommend this class for any birth workers.”

“This was a great class to highlight societal bias (and our own) and how providers unknowingly don’t support people in larger bodies. Best part was including HOW we can do better with the physical environment, physical support (as a doula), and inclusive language on our marketing, educational materials and in how we talk to our clients in order be a safe provider for ALL people. Highly recommend this to EVERYONE who works with people!”
