Success Stories: Workshop Magic

It’s Josephine. Thank you! I am so happy. I loved the classes, because no one judged anyone; we helped one another and communicated in things we’ve experienced. It helped me open up and speak up. I’ve learned to communicate, be social, and make my resume. I just felt the comfort and trust there. Even if you start from the bottom you can get to places if you set your mind to it. It’s never too late to do what you want to do and to reach your goals.

I want to let you know that just because I got hired doesn’t mean I don’t need you anymore. You helped me through more than you will ever know. Your understanding and compassion is what I needed the most. You are the best! Please call, email, or text me if you ever need anything. I will always keep you updated.
