• "Working with Kura has been a masterclass in expanding horizons and growth. She holds safe space for the both/and-ness of this life-altering work and is passionate about supporting others on their respective journeys. Kura listens deeply, shares her wisdom and knowledge generously, and supports graciously. I appreciate her ability to have tough conversations. I admire her intuition and the way she listens intently. However, what I most appreciate about working with Kura is that she consciously shows up to meet each moment (however difficult) with curiosity wrapped in love.

  • "Being in the field of education, it’s important that students feel included and represented in what they study and how they can engage in the classroom. Through her compassion and non-judgemental approaches, Kura has helped me become more aware of the importance of inclusion, representation, and equity inside the classroom. Kura offers strategies in how to cultivate a more equitable environment, as well as how to uncover personal biases. She has connected the dots and revealed how racism and othering throughout society, its systems and institutions, impacts the learning environment. As a result of this learning, I feel more empowered to speak up for those without a voice through materials I use. I am also more mindful of using language and thought processes that are more inclusive for all individuals."

  • "Kura is a joy to work with. Their compassion along with their analytical and discernment skills successfully guide organizations through the long transformation to becoming equitable. Kura supports clients through the change management process by being a guide, a coach, and a mentor all in one. They are able to help clients connect the dots between the status quo and white supremacy culture, and then skillfully help clients navigate the ups and downs of dismantling systems. Their intuitive approach grounded in the latest research gives clients multiple perspectives through the change process. I highly recommend Kura to facilitate your equity work."

  • "Prior to my time with Kura, I was a textbook example of “White fragility.” Like many White folx, my mind and heart were changed in early 2020. I sought out help from Kura. One of the biggest things they helped me with was to know what I didn’t know. I realized I walked through the world with so many privileged assumptions that only upheld systems of inequity. Kura manages to bring compassionate accountability to my journey that both challenges and holds me. They have been patient enough to explain and re-explain concepts as my defensiveness gives way to an evolving understanding of systemic racism. Thanks to our on-going work together, I can now recognize harmful patterns in myself and others AND am finding successful ways to interrupt these cycles. Kura is a trusted touchstone for me to be completely vulnerable, honest, and inquisitive – for that I am incredibly grateful."
