“Great thanks to you for organizing, facilitating, and then leading what I consider absolutely the best and most productive time the GSDL Board has ever spent together. The candor, engagement, and contributions of members all continued the following day at our Board meeting. … Thanks for your facilitation and stimulation.” Stephen Barrie, Chairman, GSDL

“Thank you for the excellent program you gave at our church! I enjoyed your presentation and your excellent handouts. I was speaking to someone who attended, and as we were talking, it was obvious she was really impacted by the workshop. More than prosperity, it talked about moving the blocks that stand in the way of what God has for us. We all loved the MOVE THAT BUS analogy!

We are looking forward to having you back to do a Board retreat for us soon. Rev. Beth Head, Unity Church of Melbourne, Florida
