Confession time: I harbor biases against folks who call themselves coaches. The profession is completely unregulated, and many (most?) coaches lack the education necessary to help clients navigate change. Anne’s conversation with longtime friend and, ahem, executive and team coach Whitney Capps challenged my prejudices as much as it corroborated my rationale for remaining skeptical. GUEST BIO Whitney Capps (she/her) is on a mission for transformation! Learning is best when it's experiential, community-based, personal, and fun. She has been facilitating, training, coaching, hosting development programming for humans for over ten years. Currently, Whitney is sharing her gifts and sharpening her practice with emerging leaders and teams via her own LLC Rootworks and with a number of other coaching/development organizations.

Sex workers are disproportionately excluded or harmed in the context of policing social services, healthcare, emergency services, and mental health support. What would it mean to be a sex work affirming provider? Equitable Care Certification is a nonprofit sex worker led organization trying to create better mental health care for the sex work community. Check out their 36-hour certification course and show up for sex workers in your community this year.
