testimonials

“Programs like this are much needed in the world, especially for BIPOC women leaders. We need people to believe in us, support us, and invest in us.”

- Mona Das, WA State Senator, Award winning film maker

“When my employer told me they would not cover any costs associated with the program I was unmoved. I knew this program was necessary for my growth and I remained committed and decided I was going to find a way to attend. I am grateful for the scholarship funds that enabled me to participate in this program because it has been transformative. Within three months of returning from our week long emersion I was offered a promotion which required me to move to an entirely new city. Because of the confidence I gained, I jumped in, despite the ambiguity and uncertainty.”

- Alisha White, Executive Director of Contracts at The Boeing Company

“This program excited me because there are almost no programs exclusively designed for women’s leadership development, and not many spaces where women can share the challenges they face both at home and at work.”

- Sharon Chiarella, Product & Technology Executive at Netflix

“As someone so used to being “the only” or “one of a few,” I’ve been conditioned to just survive and do whatever it takes to be successful, often playing by someone else’s rules. Mitch, Stacy, Nally, and my cohort are teaching me to reclaim who I am and what I want on my own terms.”

- Victoria Sepand, Product Manager Consultant at Slalom

“Traveling with Mitch was everything I never knew I needed. I knew I needed to renew and reset. I knew I needed to reflect. I just didn’t know how. I needed to reconnect to my sense of joy and passion, not just for my work, but for my life. The experience with Mitch & team in Italy became my how. The retreat gave me the time, space, and structure I needed to move from a feeling that something needed to be different to articulate exactly where I was seeking to go. I felt challenged, pushed, supported, and loved. Yes, all in a single week. I cannot recommend this experience highly enough to anyone needing to reset, renew, and connect back to their own compass.”

- Gayatri Agnew, Sr. Director Belonging & Head of Accessibility Center of Excellence at Walmart

“I still can’t believe how quickly “The 11” bonded and became so close – from the first session where we began to share our stories, until 8 months later, we have all transformed through the connections we have formed, and the things we have learned. That is the power of what Mitch and HUMiN can do.”

- Kathy Leach, Retired VP from Biotech and CGT industries

“Mitch, You are on my personal board of directors. When I think about who is going to tip my sails and make sure I get going on my journey, you are on that list. Anyone who knows me knows your name.”

- Madelyn Cossette, Global Professional Services Leader
