The material was extremely engaging and the one hour allotted flew by. Her presentation was rooted in scientific facts about stress related biology, yet had a personal and personable touch that allowed her to connect with the audience. Also, unlike some lectures, I really appreciated the tangible advice of ways to identify, practice, and cope with the added stresses of these unprecedented times.

As the CEO of a not-for-profit in the disability talent space, we were referred to Dr. White, and she developed sessions for individuals who are Black focused on healing - and a separate session for allies who are seeking to support family, colleagues and friends who are Black.
