Reviews
“Peer support has been the most valuable connection I’ve had during this time of my life.”
“After our phone call, I felt more centered and left with some notes for my next steps. I was feeling overwhelmed with not doing “enough”. I also wanted to be aware of any programs or resources that I wasn’t already tapping into. It was very informative and helpful.”
“Excellent. I don’t know where else I would have gone.”
“It’s certainly amazing to have a confidant who gets it, who is compassionate, straight forward, and smart..she’s SO smart and helpful. I now feel more capable and confident than I gave myself credit for, and having that reassurance helps me to keep pushing forward, and also helps me to give myself permission to take time for self care … THANK YOU FOR THIS GIFT!!”
