Unny, congratulations and best of luck in your important transition, I’m sure you will master everything coming up just as you have in the past.
I have 15 years of experience with Reevaluation Counseling, and it was a cornerstone in figuring out my win-win economic model. Of course, I had to round it out with additional modalities for emotional growth and healing and spirituality and mixed-in my own journeys in business and activism. I would love to grab a Mall walk and/or a meal and have a nice long chat about that, as well as catching up.
I had Covid in the fall, and now I am full of antibodies. I helped AmyLeo move up to Lutsen with help from her friend Pam Longfellow. I visited ALB another time with my doctor friend Bill Manahan. Let me know if you need my contact information for scheduling.
Thanks so much, Joel. I appreciate your wishes and trust. Not a surprise that you have experience with Reevaluation Counseling, too! Great to hear it benefited you. I’ll follow up with you about getting together!
