Interactive, informative presentation

Elizabeth came to the ELC as a referral. We initially had her speak to 60 of our contracted childcare providers on business success and she did such a great job engaging the crowd; we invited her back to provide training to our employees! They loved her interactive, informative presentation on using the Myers-Briggs to enhance communication. We look forward to working with her again in the future.

She helped me identify and

The vision you saw in the journey has just come true

Elizabeth, I wanted to tell you that the vision you saw in the journey has just come true. I am at the beach with a circle of like minded women healers. I steped into the circle to receive the healing and claim my power, just like you saw me doing. We meditated on the beach last night with a ceremony. It was amazing! Keep doing this work.
