The Survivor-Centered Expert Designation
This is a vetted directory — and that's the point. To be listed, you complete an application, record a short intro video introducing your expertise in your own voice, provide two letters of support, and share your resume. I personally review every application. When you're approved, you carry the Survivor-Centered Expert designation — an endorsement that tells buyers this person has been recognized by the field, vouched for, and is the real thing. That trust is what makes buyers choose an expert here over a stranger anywhere else.
