Hear what others are saying on the power of being part of a similar groups!

"The support that I receive from the Author's Circle that I belong to with Teresia lifts me up in my professional, personal and emotional lives. The women in the circle have become my closest friends, as well as my writing partners. Each time we meet, and each time I connect with one of them, I learn from each of them how to live a truthful life that is filled with integrity and meaning. I have learned how to both give and receive support in ways that are heartfelt and compassionate, never saccrine or placating. The women in the group vary wildly in our personalities, approaches to life and living situations. But we hold a common goal to love and acknowledge one another at every step while we each make the courageous attempt to traverse life's perilous learning path. We have said over and over again, to one another and to others in our life, that it is our wish that more people in the world would receive the kind of support that we receive from our group. Everyone deserves to have a place where they can be real, be vulnerable and be accepted without judgment or expectation. I am grateful every day that I belong to the Author's Circle and that it provides me these things, and much more."
