Rachel and I worked together at Patreon. While there, she facilitated several workshops for the business as our Learning & Development Program Manager.

One shining moment was her facilitation of a 2-day Operations Leadership offsite she led, where she guided us through building inner mind maps and DiSc styles. By the end of the offsite, I felt a newfound energy and enthusiasm toward collaborating with my teammates. She had struck the right balance of work and fun to foster creativity and growth.

I wholeheartedly endorse her as a facilitator, knowing firsthand the positive impact she can make on individuals and organizations.

Rachel is a highly skilled facilitator who knows how to run effective workshops while keeping everyone engaged and having fun.

She can take the overarching goal of any workshop experience and break it down into a well-crafted agenda, and ensure all participants are on the same page about how to contribute and commit to next steps.

I've been a participant in Rachel's facilitated workshops as well as someone she's planned said workshops with for other teams. Rachel's workshops have always been a productive use of time, resulting in a closer-working team. She tailors exercises to meet workshop goals and she leads the groups through difficult conversations that they often would not have without her facilitation.

She has an ability to keep a group on track while also making space for honest conversation. The value extracted from these workshops is usually seen in the form of closer teamwork down the road (ie. healthy collaboration, sharing of information, identifying gaps).

Rachel led our team in a really meaningful exercise that helped us understand our communication styles via the DiSC method.

She kicked off our team offsite in Santa Barbara with a thoughtful (aka not cheesy) ice breaker that I've since used in other contexts and it is always a hit. She really set the tone for our off site and I would hire her again in a moment!

Rachel's DiSC workshop was a game-changer for the Product team at Extole. As a first-time manager, I sought to understand my team better, improve communication, and foster a supportive culture.

With Rachel's guidance, we uncovered our strengths, improved collaboration and productivity, and built empathy and respect. Rachel skillfully navigated the intricacies of the DiSC model, helping us unravel the hidden layers of our personalities and gain invaluable insights into our motivations, communication styles, and work preferences.

Her ability to create a safe and supportive space allowed us to explore our strengths and identify areas for growth. Through thought-provoking exercises and interactive discussions, she fostered a collaborative environment where every voice was heard and valued.

The result? A cohesive, harmonious team that thrives on mutual respect and shared goals. It should go without saying that Rachel has a genuine passion for what she does. Her innate ability to connect with individuals on a profound level created an environment where personal and professional growth became one and the same. Rachel's dedication, passion, and personalized approach make her the ultimate choice for workshop facilitation that sparks meaningful change.

I worked with Rachel to develop and host two virtual workshops for my team in the Fall of 2021. From the very beginning, Rachel's hands-on approach was evident as she worked closely with us to identify our goals and tailor the workshop to our specific needs.

Rachel was able to take ideas from the team and fold them into the overall workshop seamlessly along with the activities and practices she recommended. Her thoughtful creation of the workshop agenda and design ensured that every aspect was aligned with our overall objectives.

I can confidently say that Rachel's involvement was instrumental in our team's growth and development. Her ability to create a supportive and engaging workshop environment, coupled with her deep understanding of team dynamics, made the entire experience invaluable.

I highly recommend Rachel's workshops to any team seeking to enhance their collaboration and achieve sustainable results!
