Reviews:
"The only MCLE training program that I have authentically enjoyed throughout." Christine H., Esq., San Francisco
​
"I just wanted to thank you so much for your MCLE training on Implicit Bias. I am a licensed attorney in my 50s who was born with Turner Syndrome, the exact “average” height for a woman with Turner Syndrome. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your bringing this area of implicit bias (“heightism”) to the forefront. I, too, have personally experienced not being taken as seriously and regarded as being younger than I am/looked upon “as a child” simply because of my shorter stature. I continue to have to focus daily on not allowing other’s response to my height to have an adverse effect on my own self-view of my worth, work and accomplishments. Developing a thick skin is great, but I think you put it best….the more time people spend around me and actually get to know me, the more any inaccurate views or prejudices concerning my height and my abilities are dispelled. I hope this knowledge then transfers to how they regard other shorter persons and that they take some time to think before jumping to any conclusions. Again, I thank you for your presentation. I hope you do many more!"​​
