June Sex-Positive Parenting Workshop

Workshop: Talking about Gender and Sexuality with Children

Wednesday June 1, 2016 from 7:30-9pm. This workshop is designed for parents and caregivers who want to be empowered when discussing gender and sexuality with children. In this workshop, I will teach you how to use age-appropriate messages about sexuality that are inclusive to gender diversity.

Being a sex-positive parent means we prioritize our child’s sexual health, just as we prioritize their mental and emotional health. In this workshop, you can learn how to maintain a non-punitive stance toward sexuality, demonstrate that you are knowledgeable about the gender spectrum, and be confident in modeling boundaries and consent. We will role play, practice and share experiences of having those little conversations that add up to a solid foundation of sexuality education.

This workshop will be centered in deep compassion for all parents and caregivers who are trying to figure this out as they go. We all need supportive care as we care for and support the young people in our lives. We will foster empathy for each other’s parenting challenges. Spending time with other parents and caregivers who are looking for resources is a resource in itself!

I’m so looking forward to spending an evening with other parents who are doing this work to support their families in a whole new way.

Individual sessions allow you to get customized parenting advice.

Let’s talk!

I am available for individual coaching sessions in person, over the phone or via Skype.

It’s not easy to make it out to a class or workshop, I understand how difficult coordinating a household schedule can be. If you need some support, I am happy to make myself available for you.

Before we meet for a session, I’ll ask you to provide some contextual information. What are the unique variables to your family that I need to take into consideration? What are you challenged by right now? What area of sexual health are you feeling confused, concerned or overwhelmed by? Who are the people involved in your situation? Once I have this background knowledge I am then prepared to be your coach.

I structure coaching sessions so that when we end, you have a specific strategy in place.

I may refer you to more resources, but the ultimate goal is for you to new tools in hand, feeling confident that you can move forward.

What are readers saying?

“I first read one of Airial Clark’s articles a couple of years ago, and it really stuck with me. I’d never had anyone breakdown “sex-positive parenting” in our day and age in such an easily graspable way before. It was a revelation: We’re not alone. We can impart our sex-positive attitudes to our offspring—and that will change the world. Airial is the person to bring about that change.” – Jenna Leng, California

“The brilliant Airial Clark offers enlightenment, community,and  support. All parents should be talking to their children about sex/sexuality/gender.” – Barbara Henry, California

“The sex-positive parent is a fresh look at the diverse family, it sheds light, or rather enlightenment on subjects for the not-as-conventional family while providing a forum for questions and topics.” – Kelly Mankin, Hawaii
