Identity-Based EducationGender Affirming Practices.Believe in Maybe is about imagining what could be and trusting what can be. When we Believe in Maybe, we are trusting in possibility and letting that ideal guide us.My Guiding Principles:Trust in Possibility: I believe that every individual has the potential to thrive when given the space to explore and embrace their most authentic selves.Curiosity as a Catalyst: I approach coaching with an innate curiosity. We’ll talk about what your ideal world looks like, and we’ll work to get as close to that ideal as possible.Questioning the Status Quo: I am dedicated to disrupting transphobia and bias by interrogating the norms and expectations both in the workplace and in the world. I’ll ask questions that help us challenge social norms we’re accustomed to, and some that we’re unaware of. Learning and understanding the histories and intentions behind those norms can help us to remove what no longer serves us and replace what needs updating.Join me in turning your 'maybes' into a powerful catalyst for positive change.
