I love how Marcus can see exactly how to organize or simplify something that I have been banging my head against—sometimes for literally years. It is so clear to him what to do next & such a relief for us all when he does it.

Dismantling harmful practices can only come when you co-create nurturing spaces where people can name their experiences & feel supported.
