Professional Trainings
Approachable, human-centered support skills for the people who hold everyone else.
When you work with humans, you work with grief, stress, overwhelm, and life transitions—whether you’re a therapist or a teacher, a nurse or a hairstylist, a coach or a support staff member. And eventually, you’ll find yourself in that moment:
Someone shares something tender.
You care. You want to help.
…and suddenly you’re not sure what to say (or what not to say).
Realness Rising offers two ways to bring more confidence, clarity, and emotional skill into your work environment: Professional Trainings and Lunch-and-Learns. Both are designed to be accessible, practical, and deeply grounded in real-life conversations.
Professional Training
For helping professionals + service-based teams
These trainings are for anyone who regularly supports others—formally or informally—including:
Therapists, Coaches, Hairdressers, Social Workers, Teachers, Nurses, Doctors, Support Staff, and anyone in a service-based role who hears people’s hard stories, holds space, handles complaints/woes, or supports clients, patients, students, or colleagues through difficult moments.
What these trainings are for
Sometimes “active listening” isn’t enough. Sometimes validating isn’t enough. Sometimes you’re sitting across from someone in heartbreak, loss, or overwhelm and you can feel it: this is bigger than a good pep talk.
This training gives you more tools in your toolbox so you can show up with tenderness and skill.
What you’ll leave with
You’ll gain practical, usable support skills you can apply immediately, including:
A clearer understanding of grief, loss, heartbreak, and overwhelm (and how they show up in everyday life)
Concrete words you can actually say in the moment
Guidance on what to say and what to avoid
Simple exercises and tools to help people feel seen, met, and supported
More confidence, so you can be present without spiraling into “Am I saying this right?”
The goal: you feel steadier in hard conversations, and the person you’re supporting feels genuinely met.
Length: 90–120 minutes
Format: Available for teams and groups (virtual or in-person, depending on location and needs)
Lunch & Learn
For organizations that want to support employees and strengthen culture
Lunch-and-learns are designed for workplaces who want to:
Support employee wellbeing in meaningful, practical ways
Boost morale and resilience
Build stronger connection and trust within company culture
Offer approachable education around grief and life challenges
Create more emotional intelligence across teams (without making it weird)
What is a Lunch-and-Learn with Realness Rising?
These are bite-sized learning + connection experiences that fit into a lunch hour and meet the real emotional needs inside modern workplaces.
Maybe it’s the holiday season. Maybe your team has been through a lot. Maybe the world feels heavy, and you can sense your staff needing more support, more connection, and more tools for being human together.
Realness Rising creates lunchtime sessions that are accessible, engaging, and deeply relevant—the kind of support that improves the felt sense of your culture, not just the bullet points on your values statement.
