Recent testimonials from the June 12th/13th workshop in Vancouver:
Thank you so much for all your support and encouragement this last weekend. I have gone from being extremely unsure and not having any confidence in either my story or abilities to knowing that I can actually do this.Your workshop was superb and really gave me all the basics to tackle this at my own speed and way. I’ve told a handful of people close to me and they are all pumped. So after two years – I’m ready. So thank you so much. You are very gifted and working in your sweet spot. I look forward to working with you in the future. Barb Horton
Don’t know about you, but I’m still pumped, still on a high. My kids politely suggest that I could come down any time, preferably soon. Not a chance!That was such a great weekend – you were a stimulating group to be with. I got so much from
it, in terms of learning, support and laughter.Now I’m going back to my book. Best regardsVal
Thank you so much for everything, Julie! You have changed my life. Thank you so much!! Meeting you is another
of those “right on time miracles” in my life!! Very sincerely, Linda Ghari
