Testimonials

  • In tough times, you sometimes don’t even know where to start (especially as a fully youth-led organisation). Marissa brought an external perspective aligned with our feminist values, helping us see the right questions to ask and a possible way forward. Her tools and templates gave us a solid base for our plan, and we are grateful for her time and expertise.

    -Executive Director, youth led-organisation

  • As a first-time CEO, I was feeling isolated in making tough decisions. Having an advisory call with Marissa was like having a wise, values-driven sounding board. She helped me see both the strategic and human dimensions of my role, and I left our session feeling clearer, steadier, and less alone.

    -CEO of a women’s rights organisation

  • We were daunted by the changes we knew we had to make, but Marissa’s calm and structured guidance helped us see a way through. She equipped us with the frameworks and questions we needed to manage challenges with confidence and compassion.

    -Trustee of a small community charity

  • Our board was struggling to balance operational needs with financial reality. Marissa guided us through the right conversations, helping us to clarify priorities, difficult conversations about redundancy, and good governance. Her external perspective was invaluable, and she gave us a framework and strategic approach we can keep returning to.

    -Chair of Trustees, feminist organisation

  • Facing potential downsizing was daunting for our small organisation. Marissa created the space for honest, values-based conversations that kept staff dignity at the centre. She didn’t tell us what to do, but gave us the frameworks and questions we needed to make our own decisions fairly.

    -Chair of Trustees, feminist organisation

  • We don’t have the budget for consultants, but the challenges we face are no less complex. Marissa’s pro bono advisory calls were a lifeline. She gave us structure and reassurance: different ways to think through our options and the reminder that we were not alone in facing them. It was practical, generous, and wonderfully human support.

    -CEO, grassroots community organisation
