Client Testimonials
I have asked Kyle to come to my school multiple times to work with my 10th grade and senior class. Through active and engaging activities she has shown students that practicing consent communication is important, a life skill, and can also be fun.
I’m always impressed with her ability to handle a large group and guide them towards a better understanding of the importance of consent.

âKyleâs ability to mix her teaching background as well as absolute desire to educate our student-athletes about safe dating is evident by her unique ability to understand her audience and demand participation. She allowed the players to speak freely about what cultivates healthy relationships in high school⌠how alcohol and drugs could play a role in relationships as well as whose responsibility it is to know when something may run afoul. She encouraged student-athletes to elaborate on realistic examples of situations and discussed how best to react should they arise again.
Her enthusiasm and passion about the topic was evident and far superior to anyone Iâve seen discuss this topic.â
