Because of her services, I am a more intentional, curious, and confident person — and her impact in my life has been extraordinary.

Cindy leverages her lived experience and coaching expertise to help people better understand issues from the perspective of people whose lives are different from ours. I participated in an anti-racism group that Cindy ran in 2021, and I looked forward to the insightful and honest discussions in every session. The program opened my eyes in many ways. Thanks to my work with Cindy, I now think about whose voices I am amplifying when I share something or buy a book.

What I appreciate most is her willingness to say hard things and call out inequities in a way that invites conversation rather than shuts it down.
Cindy is smart, resourceful and intolerant of all forms of inequities. She puts that focus to work in everything she does.

Her ability to coach, ask insightful questions, show leadership, responsiveness, strategic solutions for systems was always appreciated and valued by myself and other members. I also always felt how strongly she cared that each and every one of us thrived. Highly recommended.
