The Boundaries + Consent Workbook is a good companion to any class.
Hi, I’m Mia. I’m an author, multi-media artist, and an intimacy coordinator for TV, film, and theater. It’s my mission to make consent education as digestible and widely available as possible so you can identify your desires, needs, and boundalries and authentically express them to others in your own unique voice. Relationships are my life’s work.

Decolonizing Non-violent Communication
with Meenadchi
VIRTUAL: Monday Oct 6, 5–7pm PT / 8–10pm ET. Recording included with registration in advance. The recording will not be for sale after the fact.
Using a trauma-informed and decolonial lens, this workshop will explore definitions of Non-Violent Communication within the context of interpersonal conflict and connection. This introductory workshop will provide a framework for exploring and navigating conflict within your own life in addition to practical tools to deepen skills for empathy towards self and other.
Meenadchi is a somatic healing practitioner, TEDx speaker, and communications expert whose work centers social change and embodied transformation. Using a blend of Family Constellation Therapy and Non-Violent Communication, Meenadchi supports individuals and changemakers in reconnecting with the intuitive wisdom of our bodies so that we can co-create intergenerational healing by changing the way we speak to ourselves, each other, and the universe. Meenadchi holds a clinical license in occupational therapy and has historically served communities impacted by gender-based violence, complex trauma, and serious mental illness. She is the author of Decolonizing Non-Violent Communication (2019).

Unblocked: Cultivate secure attachment with your creativity
with Mia

This program is for artists, musicians, creatives, writers. It’s for people looking to deepen or return to their creative practice and for those looking to embark on one for the first time, especially if you:
struggle with people-pleasing tendencies in your work
have a codependent relationship with your art (“People need this from me so I will give and give and give”)
feel guilt or shame about making money with your art
struggle to find motivation to create
don’t know where to start or when to stop
want to make more money from your art
want to find a sacred relationship with play
want to find a more easeful relationship with your authenticity and creative self-expression
grapple with your ego as an artist and want to believe what you have is worth sharing with the world without feeling like an arrogant shithead
This is a trauma-informed, neurodiversity-aware course that takes into account the reality of the Capitalist system we live and create within

October 4-week
Spicy Writing: Uncovering Your Desires
with Mia
VIRTUAL: Tuesdays Oct 21–Nov 11, 5–7pm PT / 8–10pm ET **except October 28th we will meet from 4-6pm PT / 7-9pm ET. Recordings are included with registration in advance; they will not be for sale after the fact. Please note that this class involves a lot of breakout-room exercises, so attending live sessions is highly recommended!
As I see it, there are three main components to getting what you want:
Knowing what you want.
Believing you deserve it.
Asking for it.
But why is it so flipping hard to know what you want in the first place? Well…there’s a lot of answers to that question. For one, our (Western) culture is totally pleasure-phobic and squeamish. We’re also told through media how to act, what to want, how to talk, etc. so it’s pretty hard to parse out our authentic desires from the other ones instilled in us so that other people and companies can make money off of our insecurities when they promise to fill the very (not sexy) holes they poke in our self-esteem.
When it comes to sex, it’s even more complicated. Many of us never really learned how to talk about sex, or even if we have, it’s not an easy subject. Maybe it makes you nervous, maybe it feels clunky and awkward, maybe you don’t really know much about it or what your options even are.
This class will help.

October 24 + 27
Authenticity in Social Media
with Afomia + Mia
VIRTUAL: Friday Oct 24 + Monday Oct 27, 5–7pm PT / 8–10pm ET.
This class will help you work through fears and anxieties around putting yourself out there and being seen. You’ll begin to find your voice in social media and view it as a form of self-expression. You’ll start to see it as a free marketing tool and a living, breathing website that people can stumble upon, unlike a regular website. And you’ll get practical tools, skills, and tips to increase engagement and avoid burnout.
If you’re a creative, entrepreneur, comedian, artist, freelancer, practitioner, writer, starting a business, in the middle of one…this class will help you find your voice online within your boundaries of vulnerability and exposure.

DECember 2-week
Guilty pleasure
with mia + dean spade
VIRTUAL: Wednesdays and Sundays, December 3-14, 11am-1pm PT / 2–4pm ET. Recordings are included with registration in advance; they will not be for sale after the fact.
What do romcoms teach us about romance, friendship, boundaries, and consent? In this class we’ll study four 90’s romcoms as a way into examining how the romance myth shapes our expectations and behaviors in relationships of all kinds. We’ll look at cultural norms about how we make requests and say yes and no to each other alongside feminist, liberatory models for practicing consent.
This class will help you find out where you are avoiding asking for what you want, or telling people what you don’t want, and offer ways to break out of patterns of avoidance, indirectness, pushiness, and appeasing. All of us have these habits, from living in a culture of coercion and extraction. In these difficult and dangerous times, building relationships skills that help us practice authentic connection and collaboration with each other is essential. We need to stick together and care for each other so we can fight back.

2026 January 5-week
Boundaries + Consent for People Pleasers
with Mia
VIRTUAL: Tuesdays Jan 20–Feb 17, 5–7pm PT / 8–10pm ET. Recordings are included with registration in advance; they will not be for sale after the fact.
Are you giving past your capacity and then resenting other people for it? Are you struggling to feel your boundaries? Do you freeze when it’s time to say “no”? You may be people pleasing — stuck in the “fawning” or “appeasement” response, putting others’ needs before yours, and doing what you think people want in order to avoid conflict.
This course will give you practice tools to access your confidence, ask for what you want, say no, take rejection with gratitude, advocate for yourself, harness stress so you can propel yourself to act, and apply these skills outward through examples from TV and film.

2026 FEBRUARY 5-WEEK
WHAT IS THIS FEELING? A POLYAMORY WORKSHOP SERIES
with Mia
VIRTUAL: Wednesdays, February 4 - March 4, 10am-noon PT / 1-3pm ET. Recordings are included with registration in advance; they will not be for sale after the fact. Please note that this class involves a lot of breakout-room exercises, so attending live sessions is highly recommended!
For me, polyamory is a commitment to honesty, both to myself and others. It’s a commitment to self-growth through relationships, to understanding myself, my needs, my desires, my boundaries, and learning to express them in increasingly authentic and clear ways.
I don’t know anyone who’s polyamorous for the sex, contrary to popular belief. It’s too complicated! Too much work! For most of the people in my life, myself included, polyamory is about connection, intimacy, and care. It allows us to expand our definitions and ideas of what a relationship is and can be. Polyamory allows us to queer relationships, unlearn unhelpful and even damaging narratives of sex, gender, and love we receive from the media, and get our needs met without falling into codependent traps.
This class uses consent principles to support you in uncovering your own cues of crushing, falling in love, jealousy, pulling away, wanting more, urgency, boundaries coming up or being pushed, so you can express yourself fully and honestly and build sustainable, long-lasting relationships of all kinds.
