01 Partnership Strategy Relationship development · collaboration planning +

A clear-eyed system for finding, researching, and building relationships with the sponsors, partners, and collaborators your organization actually needs, not a cold list, a real pipeline.

  For nonprofits, schools, and founders who know partnerships matter but don't have a system for building them
  You leave with researched targets, an outreach plan, and a pipeline you can actually run
02 Community Strategy Audience engagement · growth · storytelling +

The engagement systems and mission storytelling that turn an audience into a resource, built and set up directly, not just recommended. I built my own newsletter to a 60% open rate and 65,000+ organic impressions in 90 days. You walk away with the same kind of system: a content cadence you can actually keep, messaging that sounds like you, and infrastructure that runs without you rebuilding it every month.

  For organizations with a story to tell but no system, or language, to tell it well: messaging, email, and website setup included
  You leave with a working system, not a strategy deck
03 Grants & RFP Partnership Support Research · case-building · process +

Structured support for the needs-assessment and proposal process behind a funded partnership, the same process behind a successful $75,000 grant win. You walk away with a fully researched case and a ready-to-submit proposal, built around your actual funders.

  For nonprofits and civic organizations building the case for a grant, sponsor ask, or funding partnership
  Grounded in real research and stakeholder input, not a template
04 ERG, Workshop Facilitation & Inclusive Community Design Facilitation · accessibility · inclusive systems +

Keynotes, workshops, and facilitated conversations for ERGs and teams, grounded in a later-in-life ADHD and autism diagnosis, not a slide deck borrowed from someone else's research. Practical language, accessibility-minded engagement, and inclusive systems thinking, not a compliance checkbox.

  For HR, L&D, and ERG teams building genuinely inclusive workplaces, not just policy language
  Delivered as a keynote, working session, facilitated conversation, or manager-training workshop, scoped to what your team actually needs
How it works

The Radical Belonging Framework

No packages. Just the right fit.

1

Reach out

Tell me a bit about what's going on. I'll get back to you within a day or two.

2

A real conversation

No pitch, no pressure. An honest look at whether I'm the right person for this.

3

Scoped to the situation

Every engagement is built for the actual problem, not a menu of packages.
