Without the skills you teach I would still be stumbling along going from silence to violence. I’m also inspired by the ideas in Influencer and Change Anything. Your team is certainly changing the world for the better.

I am thankful for the support of my family through the travels of my life and recent medical journey. They have been my rock. I am thankful for the many nurses I meet daily in my travels as I teach and reach out to them and share with them the true nature of caring and tending to the sick and injured. Most of all I am thankful to our country and military for making this a safe and wonderful country to be free to express ourselves and provide more opportunities for women to grow to their full potential. I am so thankful to have been born in this country as compared to the life I would have been able to live as a women in some other countries.

I read my Vital smarts religiously to see what I can learn and take home. There are so many times that day to day opportunities exist to take a moment before a reply or action to check your story, see what you really want, check your timing and build the sense of safety that is so important with family. Thanks. So many corporate help groups, though good at what they do, are not heard from again and certainly do not allow themselves to come into our lives like you do. Thanks for that personal touch from each of you. And Kerry, I hope it is ok that I have printed and bound your stories for my family. Thanks to all of you and have a great 2012 Holiday season.

All are a part of my life and I strive to be a better person because of them.
