Testimonials.
"It gave me what I needed to take bold action in my life and I wouldn’t be where I am without Larry’s guidance and mentorship!"
"You learn a ton of very useful things like gardening, watershed catchment, pattern literacy etc, but my favorite part of the course was learning how to build community. You become empowered right away to take your knowledge and start using it. I didn't have to wait years for a fancy degree I could start making change happen NOW!"

Testimonials.
“A retreat with Gabriela is a TREAT! I attended an intense facilitator’s training and spiritual retreat. That event could have been very difficult not only emotionally but physically as well, but because every detail was thought of and attended I was able to put my thoughts and energies where needed. It was a FIVE STAR week – not only transformative but fun filled. I felt cared for, nurtured and had a blast as well. I was especially grateful to have Gabriela just a phone call away when I missed my flight in Mexico City. Just knowing she was there made a stressful situation much easier. Everything from booking, working out all the logistics, traveling, tours, lodging, food, service and people on my retreat was amazing and YUMMY! Much Love Sister”.
