“I have been very empowered with this Pathways to Happiness session of yours and I would have to say it is one (if not the most) meaningful experiences in my 46 years of life. It is not an understatement to say I have progressed leaps and bounds. I have made profound changes in my life knowing and using what my true strengths are. (They are so different than what I thought they would be or should be.)”

“I have more tools in my toolbox, more confidence in myself. I did some healing, gained more self awareness. I am amazed at the deep connection with a group community of love and support that was created. You/the course totally delivered on the purpose. “

“I loved the way you co-taught and co-facilitated this course. I have seen it done really well and really poorly. You really modeled a very caring, cooperative, forgiving and growing style. I loved the beginning meditations. I really appreciated your integrity, thoughtfulness and hard work that went into preparing all of the classes. I loved how you took what you learned from the Authentic Happiness course and integrated all of your own valuable life experiences and expertise into a new course.”

“WOW! This course has meant so much to me. You and Nancy have done such a great job, I just can’t say enough.  Thank-you. It was one of the best emotional/spiritual growth  experiences I've ever had.”

“This course helped me to appreciate other people more. I was aware of my own appreciation of beauty and excellence, for example, and critical of others who did not share this. Now I see that they bring other strengths to the table that contribute equally to my quality of life.”

“I got exactly what I needed from this course. I experience more joy and gratitude, and that was my hope. I feel more succinct about my purpose and strengths, and use them more to guide my decisions and actions. At the same time, I also more deeply accept my melancholy and realize it drives me to grow and fulfill my purpose of hearing and following truth.”

“You took good material (Seligman et al.) and made it yours, then conveyed it personally and effectively.”

(Two years after taking the classes) “ I really think the class and the follow-ups have been helpful to me to dealing with situations that come up in life in ways that leave me happier and that my general happiness has increased quite a bit in the past 2 years since I took the class.”

“This course has been enlightening, practical, do-able, and effective.  You
have a winning combination of presenting material that is essentail to
learning the "how-to's" to happiness and joy, without the student being
overwelmed.  Instead, it has been a steady climb with much enthusiam, humor,
great surprise (this stuff really works!), and satisfaction.  On the worst
of days, I dug in and did it when I sure was feeling "other".  Inspiration
calls were downright reverent.  THANK YOU FOR DOING YOUR HOMEWORK.”

“I am fascinated by the way this development of a purpose statement works as a group activity. In a way, my own purpose is like the flavor of water to a fish. I would not appreciate the special resonance of my own purpose to me if I weren't reading other peoples' statements. About each of them I can say "Oh that's wonderful. It's inspiring" etc., etc.  But they don't have the special resonance of my own. Only MINE is theringing of my chimes.”

”When I think how apologetic I felt about my self-introductory statement, I have to observe that
this course has really increased my own appreciation of my special place in the universe.”

“WOW! This course has meant so much to me. You and Nancy have done such a great job, I just can’t say enough.  Thank-you.”

“I feel better about whom I am – just the way I am.”

“I can’t think of a time when you disappointed me. I was surprised at how much support you gave us between master and pod calls – always willing to respond to a request or just someone thinking out loud. I found myself wondering if you might be doing too much for us for the price of the course. That you would burn out. “

“My goals are clearer and closer at hand, and I know how I contribute best and where to go from here.”

Helped me make the changes I’ve been trying to make for the past few years.
