    I found Silvia and Della to both be brilliant facilitators. The space they created felt warm, safe and inspiring. I really appreciated how, in the initial welcome during the first session they spent time welcoming everyone, all backgrounds, cultures, genders, priviledges and also included wherever we were emotionally and psychologically.
