“Working with Maggie has been such a gift.
Every time I'm in her presence I know I'll walk away with new perspectives, shifts and groundedness. I feel safe in her presence and her listening skills are top notch. As a somatic informed coach, she has this way of taking what I've shared and wrapping it in this nice package and handing it back, giving me new ways to approach challenges with more body centered awareness, hope and strength. Thank you, Maggie!”
— Nicole Saadvandi, Coaching Client
“Maggie and her team are truly amazing in assisting ‘traditional’ organizations with their DEI work.
They brought together employees with different perspectives and experiences and made sure ALL were heard. It was incredible to hear self described "skeptics" speak to how it was a positive experience and nothing like they were expecting. Their work was invaluable and as such, we continue to reach out to them as we try to create a more positive DEI culture."
—Pam Krotz, DEI Chair, South Metro Fire Rescue
“Maggie Red knows what she stands for.
And that is excellent news for any organization looking to transform their culture or enhance their capacity to live into their ideals. I worked on a project with Maggie where I came in after she had already been working with the client for some time. Because of the trust that she and her team were able to build, I was immediately able to jump in and benefit from that trust being immediately transferred to me for my portion of the engagement. You can't transfer trust like that unless your clients know where you stand.”
“Working with Maggie has spanned some of the most diverse and enjoyable work I’ve done.
It’s been invaluable to have a partner who can go the distance from the brainstorming to post implementation on small to large projects and workflows. I would describe the experience as taking small steps together and then looking around to analyze the impact before taking more small steps. To have a coconspirator is to have more than an ally, it is to have someone who advocates and works for you and others like they would advocate and work for themself.”
“Maggie is a true leader in the DEI space.
She embraces that the DEI space is constantly evolving and encourages us to use new research and literature on each project we work on. What sets Maggie apart is her somatic and experiential learning approach, previous university teaching experience, and her ability to tailor how we discuss DEI principles in a way that keeps people in the conversation. What I admire most about Maggie is her ability to ask her partners and clients thoughtful, probing questions. As her partner, it helps me ensure that what we’re designing and delivering is aligned with our client’s goals. For her clients, it applies the right amount of pressure to help them realize new ideas and new ways of being. I highly recommend working with Maggie.”

“We worked with Maggie and Continuous (R)Evolution on a business canvas for a startup project.
Maggie helped us focus in on our target audiences and articulate our differentiators in the market, and what we bring to clients for solutions. She also has such a wealth of organization leadership experience that she saved us enormous time and frustration by working out our workflows in our small, sometimes overwhelmed, outfit. The best part was that Maggie is fun to work with and infused us with energy and optimism every time we met.”
“ I have worked with Maggie on many projects exploring individual, team and organizational dynamics with an aim toward becoming anti-racist.
With her keen insight, compassion, and deep commitment to meeting her clients where they are, Maggie stays with them, helping to move them forward, where other consultants might move onto their next assignment. As groups and organizations experience the world (and themselves) in new and deeply profound ways, the result is real transformation. Behaviors, systems and practices shift in the ways that humans evolve - overtime, with struggle, new practices and optimism that is lasting and joyful. This is the kind of work every organization needs - thoughtful, deliberate and honest experiences, relevant conversations and lasting change.”
— Christine Chopyak, Owner at Arlosoul Consulting
“Maggie came alongside our organization at the crucial juncture.
Diversity is the key to the future performance of the fire industry. But defining DEI for the fire service felt like a daunting, if not impossible task. Maggie helped us determine first steps and put in the hard work. She was thoughtful and strategic in her approach to our niche industry. Skilling up male dominated fields for DEIB work is a science, of which Maggie is the content expert. The diversity reflex and perspective of our teams has an impact in our interactions, team dynamics, and ultimately our performance. Maggie helped set us on a positive trajectory to develop more inclusive behaviors and attitudes without sacrificing comradery.”
