"Sue asked our group thought-provoking questions and helped us formulate practical questions to use in our respective occupations. I am grateful to have participated in this workshop, and I will reflect on and review my notes periodically." — Reverend Michael Moon, Retired Catholic priest of the Diocese of Madison, Wisconsin.
"I love when I can walk away from a training and immediately put my newly learned skills to use! The course was paced well and the content was well organized. I couldn’t believe how fast the time went. I wanted it to slow down! The content of this class was a wonderful compliment to the 40-hour training I did with Michael Rust from the Winnebago County Conflict Resolution Center. Sue clearly knows her trade and so graciously shared her knowledge and expertise with us. I look forward to learning more from her.
Thank you to Sue, Drew and Star for such a wonderful class. I look forward to taking more in the future. I now look forward to not only putting everything into practice but also reflecting on what we learned and going back to read over my notes. " — Mellisa Stafford
