Sharing with Purpose

Trainings, Talks, and Facilitation

We know what happens when a message misses its moment, and what becomes possible when it lands. Whether leading a workshop, speaking on stage, or facilitating a high-stakes conversation, we design sessions that resonate across roles and lived experience.

Our approach is grounded in clarity, respect, and the belief that learning is relational. Each session is tailored to your goals, informed by research, and connected to our broader work in messaging, engagement, and strategy.

What We Offer

  • Interactive Workshops and Trainings

    Hands-on sessions exploring topics like Asset-Based Community Development, values-based organizing, field strategy, and public narrative. Often paired with our Strategy from the Ground Up work.

  • Keynotes and Presentations

    Talks, panels, and fireside conversations that center dignity, trust, and civic power. Delivered in collaboration with institutions, faith networks, universities, and coalitions, and grounded in insight from our Research and Advisory Services.

  • Internal Learning and Alignment

    Support for teams navigating shared language, values alignment, and trust-building. Often integrated with our Coalition to Coordination work to move from shared values to collective action.

How We Work

We start by understanding your audience and goals. From there, we design the format that fits, whether a two-hour workshop, a full-day training, or a keynote that brings lived experience into strategic focus.

Sessions are interactive, inclusive, and adaptable. We prioritize access, cultural context, and participation, drawing on adult learning theory, social psychology, and organizing experience to ensure the session lands and lasts.

Who Is This For

  • Nonprofits and institutions designing meaningful learning for teams or partners

  • Coalitions seeking shared understanding across diverse stakeholders

  • Conference planners and conveners looking for grounded, resonant speakers

  • Educators and leaders exploring identity, narrative, and civic power
