Over the last 6 weeks I have gone through some of the most intense emotions I’ve ever experienced (great anger, sadness, and helplessness). I can say it has been the most challenging time of my life. All of the things you teach in this class have given me so much strength in my ability to communicate under the most difficult of circumstances. I feel happy and confident.
