I would love the idea of living in a world where people could dare to talk and admit feelings of shame and fear. I honestly believe it would change the way we think, experience life and also affect many other aspects in our lives such as the way we see ourselves. The few times I have dared to be honest and answer with the truth when a colleague has asked me "How am I doing?", I have been met with love, understanding and encouragement. Sometimes we have to be brave and stop thinking that we always have to be perfect, stand alone and fend for ourselves. I was really inspired by her honesty and vulnerability.

No matter where you are in your journey through life this course and the community built around it WILL take you to the next level. Whether you're looking for strategies to enhance your communication skills, better understand your own needs and how to ensure they are met, or maybe you are looking to expand the tools in your emotional toolbox. Over the years I've engaged in many continuing education/personal development courses and programs but this has been hands down the most beneficial program I've been part of and the community involvement and support is without equal. Thanks Grisha!

Wonderful course, it went very deep for me, how to listen to my own needs and knowing it's not egoistic but essential. Reminding me to meditate and showing me other oportunities to do that. And showing me how to listen deeply to others. For me, who's triggers are humans, this is a big lesson.

I really enjoy the course, specially after losing my dog Aby on last April. This course is just what I need while I am still grieving. Thank you, Grisha xo

I totally enjoyed this incredible comprehensive course full of wonderful information for body and soul. I would recommend it to everyone! It is my go to again and again if Im feeling a little bit wobbly it just puts me right back on track

Demanding, very good

I have been going through some rough changes post-Covid (three times... WITH LONG COVID each time) and my whole life has been turned upside down. My dog training business was negatively impacted, a relationship with a significant other ended, I had several close family members and friends who passed away in less than a year, my personal life is non-existent, and I lost a home and another property I dearly loved. I have been in simple survival mode for about a year. Re-taking this course helped me get things back on track, to see where I was not even aware of needs that were not being met, and I am making small adjustments daily to help myself start thriving instead of simply surviving.

This course helps to know me better and give me tools to challenge life to be happy and calm in comunity

I have been struggling with being "the people pleaser" and have been gaining SO MUCH knowledge for sometime now thank you Grisha and community! Finding my inner peace and setting positive boundaries not only personally but career-wise as well. Absolutely love that you added these fundamentals into your education formats as being an adult can sometime feel like the hardest part on having to people. The hardest part of human interaction is how we perceive our own selves to be which can be a lot! Setting boundaries for both yourself and others and creating that safety we all desire and NEED is a key point to living. Thank you! I have learned you cant set your students up for success if we aren't willing to do our own personal work and let ourselves enjoy our great successes and achievements as well as our failures.

I loved the resources throughout the course, but especially the personal insights from Grisha who wholeheartedly shares her own experiences, grief and practices. This is a wonderful reminder (with practical advice) to connect with yourself and show up more meaningfully for our dogs, clients, family and friends.

This course was exactly what I needed. So grateful for all the tools and resources shared. I appreciated Grisha's vulnerability and perspective on all the topics. I was grateful to find that even though I came hear to learn more about how to help dogs I found this resource to help me live more mindfully and fully.
