“I was struggling with my daughter (16 at the time) and our constant fighting. You said something to me that changed my life!

That courage and dedication you so generously share with the world, has inspired me to push myself a little harder, persevere at each task a little longer, dig a little bit deeper to where the answers just “feel” right to both my humanity AND my spirit.
