“It feels like a part of me that I’ve been trying to express for so long finally has an outlet. All of the things inside me that wanted to be created — they now have a way out. Anya made the art and science of facilitation come alive for me in a way that was surprising and delightful, and has set the stage for deep learning. The variety of exercises and tools she introduced to us opened my mind to the possibilities and showed me how I can apply my own creativity to this process. The learning and connection I’ve experienced here has been much deeper than in other groups I’ve been a part of. Words really fail to describe how transformational this has been for me.” – Adrianna Locke, Healer, Acupuncturist, Facilitator of Connection

“I love the experience of having this whole group of people who are going though the same creative process that I am, but each exploring their own completely different subject matters. That in and of itself is so valuable. This cohort is a place where we all go to each other for inspiration and encouragement, growth and accountability. Your support and teachings helped me to facilitate a very meaningful and personal experience, and I felt all of the learning that I had done, the guidance that I had received helping me to stand with confidence, to take on the leadership role that had been asked of me. I had an emotional strength and trust that I have enough of what it takes to step forward. I hadn’t had that before.” – Pam Hardy, Environmental Lawyer, Yoga Teacher, Facilitator of Communication
