what do you get in this training?

1. 100s of hours of time

that I’ve spent developing, editing, troubleshooting, improving, planning and teaching workshops; creating my brand as a sex educator; and organizing the systems I use to keep myself prepared, professional, and desirable as an independent contractor…all consolidated for you to take into your own work & projects.

2. Money!! (Maybe)…

As an independent sex educator, I’ve made anywhere from zero (pro-bono work is important!) to thousands of dollars for a workshop or speaking engagement, depending on the institution hiring me, their budget, their need, and their audience.

This training is offered on a sliding scale and has the capability of paying for itself in the enhancements it can bring to your freelance sex education work and in the consultation & resources it can provide you around getting started. Of course, I can’t and won’t guarantee you’ll get paid, but I can teach you how to create, advertise, and facilitate a great workshop!

3. A 75-minute webinar

during which I’ll walk you through the essential components of becoming an independent sex educator, all of which I learned and discovered through self-taught methods over the last decade. Learn from my mistakes! Customize my successes and make them your own! Bring pleasure-positive, consent-based sex education into your communities! 

4. Resources, resources, resources! 

Leave this webinar with valuable digital resources including: 

  • a To-Do list to give your freelance business a strong start
  • my personal order of operations from designing a workshop to booking it to teaching it to getting paid to getting hired to teach it again
  • a list of continued education resources in the field
  • a list of great sex educators to follow & learn from
  • and a packet of customizable templates from my personal sex educator stash that will include one of my sample workshop agendas, a sample invoice & pricing sheet, templates for reaching out to and following up with hosts, financial tracking sheets, and advertising sheets.

5. An {optional} live, personalized Skype Consultation with me 

Add on a Skype session to your Sex Educator Starter Kit during which I can help you brainstorm the creation of a workshop, your next steps, or whatever other professional conundrum you want to tackle in 45 minutes.
