"The whole experience of NUSHU Group has just been tremendous and I really have appreciated the opportunity to grow with an exceptional group of women this fall. It's such a powerful experience!"
"You created a very safe, welcoming environment for sharing and connecting... your prompts were the right temperature, and your own responses set the tone for going inwards."
"The facilitator had such a soothing voice and approach. She also did a wonderful job of weaving all of our shares together in her remarks which I thought was really a talent. It made us for that hour and a half feel like a group and we ended in a space that felt really comfortable for me personally."
"The NUSHU Group Guidelines were very well established. I love how we each had a role in participating and reading through the commitments to the group. My facilitator was very mindful and gentle and helped set the tone of safety and non-judgment."
