“I wanted to email you to let you know how much I enjoyed the Meaning Conference. It was life changing for me. It reaffirmed my decision to go on this journey of self-discovery and personal development. It also made me realize just how much passion I have for this new career/calling and I’m looking forward to becoming a psychotherapist. It feels really good to look forward to something and to know that I am moving in the right direction.”
“Thank you for putting on the 2012 Meaning Conference. I so enjoyed the experience and feel enriched by it…. I had no idea of the full extent of the work you are doing…. There will probably be some ripple effect in that they in turn will ‘pay forward’ some of what you have given to them.”
