“Through (M&L’s) guidance, modeling, and mentoring, I have gained skills to help me grow in both my professional and personal life. Holding another person accountable is just as hard as holding yourself accountable, and through Marie Lee, I learned valuable tools and approaches on facilitating and participating in honest dialogue with colleagues. Conversations on racial injustice, power imbalances, and emotional safety in work spaces are no longer discussions where I feel intimidated or scared to speak up - I now lead with curiosity and authenticity!” — Nikhita Ved, The SAFE Alliance “Because of the outcomes and recommendations (of Marie & Lee), the program’s reach spread from our local county to international professionals and community advocates. Their eye for detail, strategic planning, creative story-telling, and professional insight (is) a valuable asset to any organization or cross-collaborative effort...” — Dr. Eloise Sepeda “This training enhanced my cultural responsiveness to the individuals that I support. (I learned) positive communication tools, deeper understanding...I can’t express how effective and informative how this training was. It was exceptional.” — Participant, Mission Capital “I was a long term Board member for a small non-profit that was going through a large, hard transition. Aja was the Interim Executive Director... She took on not only the support of staff, but adept support of the Board. She worked tirelessly to get the job done with integrity and professionalism. I highly recommend Aja.” — Board Member, Austin Tenants Council
