“If we want peace in the world, this is the place to start. Communicating with skill and respect is an essential complement to activism. Thanks, Cat!”

Marie Marchand, Executive Director

Whatcom Peace & Justice Center

“You created a space where intense and complicated interactions could be explored with full respect. Your feedback offered very valuable perspective into the way I interact with the people around me. I was especially impressed by the depth of your insight. Since the workshop, I have practiced the techniques you shared with us, and I have clearly felt the benefits. My clients seem to feel more heard, my personal boundaries have improved, and I have generally been more calm, and more present with the people around me.”

Sarah Ruth Vergin (aka, Ruthie V.)
