WORKSHOP TESTIMONIALS

…”I desperately wanted to be free from the condemning voices in my head; be free from the fear and shame I carried from my past and live a life where I had true intimacy and connection with God and others.  However, it always seemed just beyond reach no matter how hard I tried and I was exhausted.  

That all changed one weekend in Lawrence, KS.  I realized the solution was not “try harder” and “do better” it was simply to tell the truth, be honest with your feelings and identify what the emotions are that are causing you to do what you do.  On the outside, I appeared to have the perfect life but on the inside, I did not care if I lived or died.  I did not realize it, but I was actually the walking dead all those years prior.  It was not until this weekend, and with continued work in the process, that I became fully alive and now I desire and experience deep and meaningful relationships as I am honest with others and I now get to live abundantly.

With my new perspective and my eyes open, I fell like the boy in Sixth Sense, “I see dead people”.  So many around me are just like I used to be.  Acting alive but on the inside they are emotionally and experientially dead.  I encourage you to come to this workshop and learn how to be fully alive and live as you were intended and created to be”.  -Mike

“I can not emphasize enough, how impactful the two day workshop has been for me. The teachings were foundational life skills explained through experiential stories. Every part of the workshop worked together to connect myself to my heart (a tiny voice of a me that had long ago been shut up and left behind). Fears that held me back for my whole life were shattered. If I had to recommend one class, one book, one group (and I have been a part of many) I would recommend this workshop as the very best thing I have ever done for myself. It has truly freed me towards living more fully!”

“The “Living Fully Workshop” put the puzzle pieces of my life together in a way that made sense and spoke to my true heart. I finally understand why my long-established patterns of relating and communicating were neither working nor fulfilling. The workshop taught me how to recognize my feelings, understand what I need and how to share both with others. It also helped me to understand and embrace how God is an essential, integral part of the entire process. Stephanie and Phil are skilled teachers and amazingly intuitive. Together, they made this a lifechanging experience.”
