Allyship Is a Verb: Lessons From LGBTQ+ Communities

Wanting to be a good ally is not the same as knowing how to be one. Allyship Is a Verb: Lessons From LGBTQ+ Communities closes that gap. Through a one-of-a-kind multimedia format, participants hear directly from LGBTQ+ community members and walk away with practical tools for offering support that is specific, meaningful, and grounded in real human experience. The thing that gets in the way of good allyship is rarely a lack of caring: it's not knowing how, or being afraid of getting it wrong.

Beyond He and She: Validating Lived Experiences

Most people aren't resistant to using someone's correct pronouns, they're nervous about getting it wrong, and that nervousness keeps them from trying at all. Beyond He and She: Validating Lived Experiences gives participants the shared understanding and hands-on confidence to navigate pronoun use, handle mistakes gracefully, and create an environment where people don't have to brace for that moment of being misidentified, because getting it right matters, and so does knowing what to do when you don't.

Transgender and Nonbinary 101

There is more legislation targeting trans and nonbinary people right now than at any other point in recent history, and most people in workplaces and communities want to show up for these communities but don't have the foundational knowledge to do it well. Transgender and Nonbinary 101 gives participants a grounded understanding of trans and nonbinary identities, the real challenges these communities face, and the practical do's and don'ts for creating spaces where people don't have to fight to be seen, because good intentions go a lot further when they're backed by actual understanding.

Practicing Sustainable Allyship

Allyship burns out when it's treated as a sprint instead of a practice, and most people who care deeply about this work have already felt that. Practicing Sustainable Allyship gives participants tools for showing up consistently without burning out, including how to apologize well, hold themselves and others accountable, and navigate the messiness of doing work that's always going to be a little unfinished, because the goal was never to get it done, it was to keep going.

LGBTQ+ 101

Most people aren't starting from zero when it comes to LGBTQ+ topics, they're starting from a mix of partial information, outdated terminology, and genuine gaps they've never had a good space to fill. LGBTQ+ 101 gives participants a grounded, judgment-free foundation, covering the current landscape for LGBTQ+ communities, key terminology, and practical tools for creating safer spaces at work, so they can show up with more confidence and less guesswork.

LGBTQ+ Communities Are Not a Monolith: Understanding Diversity Within LGBTQ+ Experiences

It's easy to learn a few terms and feel like you understand LGBTQ+ communities, but a checklist of definitions was never the point. LGBTQ+ Communities Are Not a Monolith: Understanding Diversity Within LGBTQ+ Experiences pushes past surface-level familiarity to explore the real complexity within and across these communities, because two people can share the same identity and have completely different relationships to it, and knowing that distinction changes how you show up for people entirely.

Turning the Tide: Education, Action, and Hope for Queer Rights

The legislative landscape for LGBTQ+ communities right now is overwhelming, and for a lot of people, the overwhelm is exactly what gets in the way of doing anything at all. Turning the Tide: Education, Action, and Hope for Queer Rights cuts through that paralysis with a clear-eyed look at what's happening, what's actually working, and what any person can do this week to be part of the resistance, because the goal isn't to carry it all, it's to find your part and keep showing up.

Workplace & leadership

Inclusion that shows up in the moment.

For teams, managers, HR, and client-facing staff who want inclusion to live in real workplace moments — not just the handbook.

Pride at Work: Active LGBTQ+ Allyship

Good intentions don't automatically translate into good allyship at work, and most people know that gap exists but aren't sure how to close it. Pride at Work: Active LGBTQ+ Allyship moves participants from awareness into action, using real workplace scenarios to practice responding to the moments that actually come up, including how to apologize when you get it wrong, because caring about your colleagues is a start, and knowing what to do next is what makes the difference.

Being the Change: Creating Space for LGBTQ+ Authenticity

Knowing you want to belong in the room where decisions get made is one thing. Knowing how to make the room feel safer for others is another. Being the Change: Creating Space for LGBTQ+ Authenticity gives participants practical, concrete tools for doing exactly that, covering inclusive language, pronoun practices, navigating microaggressions, and showing up consistently for LGBTQ+ colleagues and clients. The goal isn't perfection, it's building the kind of everyday habits that signal to people they don't have to hide at work.

Leading with Inclusion: Supporting Your LGBTQ+ Team Members

Leading with Inclusion: Supporting Your LGBTQ+ Team Members is built specifically for people with direct reports and decision-making authority. Managers and leaders leave with practical frameworks for handling real workplace scenarios, from responding to a problematic comment in a team meeting to supporting an employee who has disclosed their identity, because knowing the right thing to do in theory and knowing what to actually say in the moment are two very different things.

Supporting LGBTQ+ Staff: What Leaders Can Do

Leaders who understand LGBTQ+ inclusion concepts but aren't sure how to actually model them create a gap their teams can feel. Supporting LGBTQ+ Staff: What Leaders Can Do moves beyond awareness and gives leaders concrete strategies for fostering psychological safety, advocating for LGBTQ+ employees in the moments that matter, and building the everyday habits that signal to people they can show up to work as their full selves.

HR Changemakers: Fostering LGBTQ+ Workplace Belonging

HR professionals are often the people LGBTQ+ employees turn to first, and most of them want to get it right but aren't sure where the gaps are or how to talk about what's available without fumbling it. HR Changemakers: Fostering LGBTQ+ Workplace Belonging gives HR teams and business partners the knowledge and confidence to audit their benefits for real inclusivity, navigate conversations with LGBTQ+ employees without hesitation, and build policies that reflect the reality of what this community actually needs right now.

Supporting LGBTQ+ Customers' Financial Needs

LGBTQ+ customers walk into financial institutions carrying barriers that most financial professionals have never been trained to see, from wage gaps and higher poverty rates to documentation challenges and a well-founded distrust of institutions that haven't historically made them feel welcome. Supporting LGBTQ+ Customers' Financial Needs gives financial professionals the context and practical tools to serve this community with more awareness, more flexibility, and more trust, because serving customers well means understanding what they're actually navigating when they walk through the door.

Youth & families

Showing up for young people.

For parents, caregivers, educators, and the trusted adults showing up for the young people in their lives.

Supporting Our LGBTQ+ Youth

The LGBTQ+ young people in your life are navigating a lot, and the adults who love them often want to help but aren't sure where to start or what to say. Supporting Our LGBTQ+ Youth gives parents, caregivers, and other trusted adults practical tools for showing up, including how to create space for conversations before they're needed, how to respond when a young person comes out, and how to let kids lead without leaving them without support.

Popular

Neuroqueer: Supporting LGBTQ+ and Neurodivergent Youth

The overlap between LGBTQ+ identities and neurodivergence is significant, and most people supporting youth in their lives have never been given the tools to navigate both at once. Neuroqueer: Supporting LGBTQ+ and Neurodivergent Youth equips parents, caregivers, educators, and helping professionals with the knowledge and practical strategies to show up for young people at that intersection, because the youth in your life aren't asking for perfection, they're asking to be seen.

Affirming care, start to finish.

Charlie loves working with nonprofits, mental health practitioners, medical professionals, interns, and students to better understand and serve LGBTQ+ folks — so clients and patients have great care from the moment they hear about you all the way through services being completed. Maybe you've gotten feedback that some providers are missing the mark, or that your forms are outdated. Maybe you're unintentionally repelling prospective clients because they can't see themselves using your services. Let's make sure your LGBTQ+ patients and clients have positive experiences from start to finish.

The Therapist Quick Starter Training: LGBTQ+ Fundamentals

Clinicians who want to provide affirming care for LGBTQ+ clients often don't know where to start, and their clients can tell. The Therapist Quick Starter Training: LGBTQ+ Fundamentals gives mental health professionals a grounded introduction to the community, practical tools for making the intake process more inclusive from day one, and a framework for affirming clients throughout care, because the therapeutic relationship starts before the first session, and LGBTQ+ clients are paying attention to every signal you send.

The Full-Day Therapist Training: LGBTQ+ Fundamentals

Everything in the Quick Starter, and then some. The Full-Day Therapist Training: LGBTQ+ Fundamentals expands into the deeper, more specific work, including how to handle a client's LGBTQ+ disclosure, building fluency with gender-neutral language, and up to three additional hours of content tailored to your organization's specific needs and gaps, whether that's your physical space, your marketing, what happens during sessions, or how to advocate and consult on behalf of clients.

Frontline Staff Training: Affirming LGBTQ+ Clients

The clinicians can't do affirming work if the rest of the experience isn't affirming too. Frontline Staff Training: Affirming LGBTQ+ Clients gives the people who answer the phones, handle billing, check clients in, and manage intake the foundational knowledge and practical language to make every touchpoint feel welcoming, because for many LGBTQ+ clients, the front desk is where trust is made or broken before they ever see a provider.
