Emily is a stunning facilitator. We felt held, witnessed and guided through the whole day. Emily held a beautiful balance of giving and taking space and stepping in when we need a bit of a nudge. She showed flexibility and responsiveness to the energy of the group, including reframing and redesigning on the go as needed, checking the team’s consent along the way. I’m in so much appreciation for Emily’s ability to hold such expansive, philosophical and practical-based conversations, while respecting time – a real masterclass of how to hold spaces of complexity with gentle integrity. It was a joy working with Emily, she’s a gem and we can’t wait to work with her again.

Amalgamated feedback from MAIA team members
Emily's facilitation was refreshingly, gentle, intuitive and respondent to the groups needs and energy which often changed. She was firm and kind, responsive and structured. So artful; she made it look effortless.

Amalgamated feedback from Foregather Hartland 2024 participants
Emily is a wonderful facilitator and brings a lot of useful models and concepts with her. She is a beautiful collaborator, well-versed in centring and modelling all that is care-based, thoughtful, equitable, inclusive, regenerative and relational. She’s an amazing problem solver and brings a lot of pragmatism and care to complex situations. I appreciated how open she was about the learning journey she’s going on with anti-racist and anti-oppressive work (which I think she models naturally). It's been so amazing to work with Emily, I always feel supported collaborating with her. She leans in, talks things through and supports us to make good decisions.

Tayo Medupin, Founder of Hello Brave
This was such an enriching experience, so thoughtfully and carefully designed and curated to enable me to bring the best version of myself. I felt so well cared for, physically and psychologically. I came feeling a sense of urgency to develop one of my ideas but left with more confidence and a deep sense of self-belief. There was beauty, magic, joy, vulnerability, companionship and ease. It really has to be experienced to understand. Thanks to the generous creators and hosts.

Anita, Foregather Hartland 2024 participant
Emily and Tope [Medupin] are both fabulous space holders and facilitators. They created a very safe space for the team to reflect together on what had been difficult. The whole relationship felt so genuine and worked so smoothly, we all remember it as a fabulous experience. The impact was that we were able to clearly articulate what our organisational needs were in terms of operations and ultimately that resulted in DEAL hiring two brilliant Operations Co- Leads! It was just such a fabulous choice to bring them both to help us at a critical time for DEAL.
