It doesn’t matter. I’m there!”

—Eva Happy, U.S.A.

“The tools really work! I listen more. I delight and savor more. I’m better at identifying my priorities. I put myself in the way of beauty more often. I feel my feelings. I’m less critical.

The [Joyful Communication] class gave me actionable, pragmatic information and strategies to incorporate into my life, made me aware of how much I benefit from intentional community (in terms of support and accountability), and showed me how important it is to establish habits (vs. just ideals) that support joy and compassion.

I have been able to share several insights and tips with family, co-workers, and friends, which means the ripples continue….

"This is the only group I've ever been in that I've not felt my energy drained and sucked up by the end. It's a real community.
