It was even more impactful than I hoped for – and more importantly – even more needed for myself than I could have imagined.

I was feeling very lost, burnt out, and discouraged before the training. This reminded me that I need to be there for myself and leave attachment with work behind. It was incredibly relevant to where I’m at.

This was one of those rare occasions I felt safe & secure enough to divulge sensitive feelings to a group.

The training has given me the tools to stay at my job. My sense of purpose is renewed and I’m better able to see my clients as unique. I had lost that and viewed them as a “function of the job”.
