What people are saying
Sara’s session was informative and super enlightening. As a result of her session, I was able to take a step back and take stock of my privilege as someone without a disability and how I might unconsciously be perpetuating ableist views.

It led to some really interesting conversations in my group, specifically how hard it is to step back from our obsession with productivity.”

Sara was so engaging and insightful and I’ve written down lots of notes to take back to my workplace of things we can and should be doing better.
