Wow Laura!! What an amazing program!! I am getting such great feedback from our Chamber Members! I love the interaction in your program, I think it really made people truly evaluate the way they communicate! Thank you for challenging and empowering our members.
My time with Laura was a little over an hour but the results were amazing. Her coaching skills walked me through this process step-by-step. After sharing some of my personal experiences, she coached me on how to best formulate my thoughts and provide a detailed narrative of what happened. After practicing this a few times and Laura offering some constructive feedback, I am confident that I can use this experience to enhance my storytelling skills in a variety of settings.
