ADVOCACY IN ACTION HALF-DAY WORKSHOP

Deepen Your LGBTQIA+ Inclusivity
As A Wellness Practitioner

FEBRUARY 27TH 2025 | 10:00 AM - 13:00 PM GMT

Are you ready to take the next step in making your wellness practice truly inclusive?

Our new half-day training workshop is designed to help you create meaningful, lasting change—not just for your clients, but for the entire wellness industry.

This isn’t just another training. It’s your chance to take a stand for equity, grow your skills, and become someone LGBTQIA+ clients can truly trust and rely on.

Imagine a world where every LGBTQIA+ person who walks into your wellness business feels welcome, valued, and included from the get-go. That’s what this training workshop is all about. We’re here to give you the tools, knowledge, and confidence to create that environment—not just for today but for the long haul.

A Tailored Learning Experience

With a small group of just 8-10 participants, we’ll dive into your unique challenges and opportunities, offering personalised advice and real-world solutions tailored to your business and the communities you serve.

And we’re not just training specialists, all of our trainers are wellness business owners and identify as LGBTQIA+ too.

That makes us a pretty unique and special bunch of humans, even if we do say so ourselves!

Elevate Your Practice: Build a reputation as the go-to wellness professional who truly understands and supports LGBTQIA+ clients.

Deepen Client Relationships: When your clients feel genuinely seen and supported, they’re more likely to trust you, come back, and recommend you to others.

Attract a Broader Audience: Inclusivity isn’t just about doing the right thing—it’s good for business. When your practice is welcoming to all, you’ll naturally appeal to a wider range of clients.

Feel Confident in Any Situation: Gain practical tools to navigate sensitive conversations with compassion and care.

Be Part of Something Bigger: Lead the charge in creating a wellness industry that prioritises equity and inclusivity.

What’s In It for You?

What’s in It for Your
LGBTQIA+ Clients?

For LGBTQIA+ clients, finding a truly inclusive wellness professional can feel like finding a needle in a haystack. By completing this training, you’ll be able to:

Create Safer Spaces: Where clients can be their full, authentic selves without fear of judgment or exclusion.

Offer Personalized, Affirming Care: That meets their unique needs and respects their identities.

Be a Trusted Resource: Clients will know they’re in good hands, with someone who genuinely “gets it” and cares about their wellbeing.

SMALL GROUP : BIG IMPACT

This isn’t your average training session. With only 8-10 participants, you’ll have the chance to share your specific challenges. You’ll also receive personalised, real-time advice and collaborate with like-minded professionals in a safe and supportive space.

  • Auditing your practice for inclusivity—from intake forms to marketing materials.

  • Communicating confidently, handling mistakes, building trust and affirming clients’ identities.

  • Identifying and addressing unconscious bias.

Don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what past participants have to say.

    Assamiya, Life Coach & Founder Heart Song Collective

  • “I really value the way you deliver the training, it's never with judgement, and always helping people see what they may not have been able to without your insightful and supportive guidance and reflection.”

    Natasha, Holistic Leadership & Wellness Expert

  • "I gained such valuable insights into how I can better support and create safer inclusive spaces for LGBTQIA+ individuals. I'm already applying what I've learned to foster a more welcoming and understanding environment in my wellness practices."

Frequently Asked Questions

“I’ve already attended inclusivity training. Why do I need this?”
That’s amazing—your commitment to inclusivity is clear! This workshop goes beyond awareness into actionable strategies and advanced skills to create real, sustainable change in your practice. It’s the next step to making a deeper impact.

“I’m afraid I’ll make mistakes when working with LGBTQIA+ clients.”
Mistakes happen, and that’s okay! This training provides a safe and supportive space to learn, practice, and grow your confidence in navigating sensitive conversations and situations with grace and authenticity.

“I don’t think I have LGBTQIA+ clients.”
You might not see them now, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t there—or that they won’t be in the future. Creating an inclusive practice signals to potential clients that they’re safe and welcome, opening the door for a broader audience.

“Will this be relevant to my type of wellness practice?”
Yes! Whether you’re a coach, therapist, yoga teacher, or another wellness professional, the tools and strategies we teach are designed to adapt to any practice. We’ll even explore your specific business needs in our small group setting.

“What if I don’t feel comfortable sharing in a group setting?”
We keep the group small—just 8-10 participants—to foster a supportive, non-judgmental environment. You’ll never be pressured to share more than you’re comfortable with, and there’s always space for private follow-up if needed.
