“Her working class femme money genius has been an invaluable tool to help me.” - Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, writer, educator

"I deeply appreciate the depth of presence and lived experience you bring to this work." -- L., coach

“Taking this “money management” class is one of the best things I have ever done for myself. Do yrself a favor and sign up!!!!” -- M., Live ACK Class, Jan 2016

"I paid off my biggest credit card last week. I still can't believe it. Your class kicked it into high gear for me. The shift was totally in the idea of taking myself more seriously and believing that there will be a future me. Huge shift." -- K., freelance designer

“I learned more than I knew I needed to know about money in Damien’s class and I don’t regret it!” -- RYAN B., bike mechanic

“Just wanted to express gratitude for all your money teachings and tips! My sweetie and I are using it together and it’s helped us talk about money and planning with less shame and guilt.” -- ANONYMOUS, online

“I never wanted to take a course on financial planning because I had always assumed it would be over my head or speak to values that didn’t resonate with me. But this class was designed for people like me! Damien shares my values of social justice, and helped me to figure out fair, ethical ways to relate to money.” -- DARA B, education consultant, dareconsulting.com

“As a chronically ill femme of color artist living the freelance life, money is often a source of fear and uncertainty for me. I took Damien’s class and was blown away by her clarity and sensitivity. How amazing to learn about money with someone who is so anchored in social justice! She created a warm, inclusive environment; was on-point about intersectionality, and shared incredibly useful tools and tips. I never thought that discussing money could be so fun, and I left the class feeling a new sense of hope and possibility.” -- ANONYMOUS, Freelance artist

“I feel more calm about money after this. I’m shocked. I realized that I don’t have to use the same symbols and judgements that everyone else seems to use when they talk about this stuff. That’s really powerful.” - BEVIN B., blogger & lawyer queerfatfemme.com
