what people have to say about us

"We were eager to start the conversation among and about White women at our organization, and Sara and Misasha could not have been better partners. We hosted an internal discussion with them on topics that are challenging to bring into the workplace, including cancel culture, where we draw the line between politics and human rights, and getting away from a self-centered conception of allyship. Misasha and Sara are able to deftly navigate these topics in a way that's accessible to a broad range of people, calling them in to reflect and consider their place in systems of oppression without causing them to disengage. Their book provided the perfect foundation for this conversation on accompliceship and the power White women hold, and served as an ideal resource to point people to after the conversation to continue their learning." - Isis Fabian, Senior DEI Manager, Carta

“Big fan of how Sara and Misasha set guidelines, purpose, and intentions at the outset // I love the encouragement for cameras on and that there was no deck or screen sharing.  I feel that really fostered a conversation vs. a presentation // I loved the interaction in the chat from the Ibotta team, and how Sara and Misasha interacted with it as well.” - Gathered by Ryan Arpin, Senior Manager, Learning & Development, iBotta

“Huge thank you to both Sara and Misasha for sharing their time, experiences, and perspectives with our team at Forward Financing. Sara & Misasha created an open environment for our employees to feel safe in asking difficult and personal questions, and to learn how to actionize anti-racism work at home, in the workplace, and with our children. Sara & Misasha brought a personal touch to the session by sharing their lived experiences, which really resonated with our employees and helped them apply these perspectives to their own lives as well. We've received great feedback from employees on the session, many commenting that they really appreciated the honest conversation and how to have these conversations with their children. We highly recommend Sara & Misasha for your next Fireside Chat or event!”

“Your enthusiasm and commitment to race and gender awareness came across loud and clear. From my perspective you masterfully eased into the topic and helped to make people feel comfortable to listen to your ideas and give them some thought. I loved that one of our attorneys shared something pretty sensitive and insightful about her work experience, and hopefully there was some more of that after I signed off.” - Cheryl Prell Esq., Partner, Allen Matkins Leck Gamble Mallory & Natsis LLP

“Thanks to both of you for a great presentation and discussion.  You could see the hunger in our community to learn more and navigate these tough waters.  I am sure your work and your talk only inspired our attendees to do more.  You certainly had that effect on me.” - Neil A. Tuch, Head of School, Charles Armstrong School 

“Thank you so much for an amazing event today. Yay for 225 participants!  You broke our last record of 120+ people. Some of my students talked about Dear White Women during lecture today and how important it was, which was so great to hear. You two and your work left an indelible mark on their mind.” - Jane Le Skaife, Ph.D. Department of Sociology, Sierra College
