participant testimonials

“Worth every penny! I’ve been practicing non-monogamy for the past five years and I still learned new skills to help myself communicate & grow!”.

“An engaging, inclusive and mindful presentation about navigating emotions in relationships, with a non-monogamy focus”.

“I’m very grateful for being able to attend Yana’s webinar, for her insights and talents for articulating, summarizing, and explaining complicated and intimate matters are on top. 10/10 would do it again. Also, the fact that we could share this intimacy with other participants I couldn’t meet in real life was *great*”.
