Workshops

I offer these kinds of workshops:

• Public cohorts where I do not customize the content. If you want to bring these workshops inside your organization and customize them, we can chat.
• Private cohort, customizable workshops for inside an organization.
• Self-study workshops. Pre-recorded, no interaction. If you want coaching after these workshops, let's chat.
