Testimonials about Cathy's virtual retreat experience...
I was surprised how effective a virtual retreat could be.
It was almost more powerful than going away because
you were trying to live the retreat in "real life" as opposed
to going away and coming back to reality. I didn't tell
anyone about it and I felt like the days were special.
I held a special secret in my heart. ~ Laura Anderson
Cathy's virtual retreat was a comprehensive program
that presents great ideas in very approachable ways,
enabling everyone to find ways that work for them to
make wonderful use of the information and support.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I
did! ~Sheryl Stoller of Stoller Parent Coaching
Through this retreat, I learned a new perspective
on parenting that is bring me relief and joy. I
valued the opportunity to gain more wisdom and
effective tools from Cathy and Todd, while having
fun in the process. ~ Kelly Scharver
I could enjoy this daily present every day of this month!
Thank you for a wonderful gift. ~Rita Hyland
I joined the retreat because I knew it would be a great way for me to
slow down and focus on what is really important. I loved
the "virtual" aspect, being able to participate when it was convenient,
which is great for a working mom. I am so thankful I was
participating because I focused on caring for myself. ~Kelly Quinn
The retreat format was wonderful because sometimes the world looks too chaotic,
but I knew there was a small group of people entering the world each
day all trying to achieve the same kind of inner peace and outer peace.
It kept me hopeful. ~Lisa Gami
I like to picture what you gave us as a series of gifts,
presents that I can open up over and over. ~Amy Hearst
The retreat was wonderful. I will come back to the emails time and
time again throughout the year. It was a true gift to myself.
Thank you for providing a format that was caring and nonjudgmental. ~Jane Forbes
Your retreat slowed my mind, opened my heart, and brought a
new gift to our home each day. ~Caroline Rogers
I mean this with all honesty: I loved EVERYTHING about this retreat. ~ Dita de Leeuw
I enjoyed each day of the retreat. Your words are wise
and inspiring and I definitely felt more calm. ~Kim Weber
