My values do not need to be validated by anyone else. I've been going through therapy for over two years trying to figure out why people weren't seeing the situation the way I see them. I questioned myself on my values - are they realistic? Today after being in your communication workshop I could start the healing process because I don't need to have my values validated by anyone else. Therefore, I can value my own needs.

Testimonials
Thought you'd like to hear that I let one of my clients borrow the cards. Her husband isn't interested in "learning communication skills" and my client is longing for a deeper connection. They use the GROK cards when she wants to connect with him and she says it works beautifully.
