Presenter Coaching Client

Hi Doc, Thank you again for taking the time to "meet" with me this evening. I am not a person who has always embraced "homework" it conjures some level of anxiety that I had throughout high school because pressure to do better that well always came from 2 scary places, my teachers and my parents. But when talking to you, I can't help but think, in great anticipation, "what homework does she have in mind this time?" I honestly get excited about our next meeting before the current one is over. When you hear me say (or post on FB) that "I am blessed beyond measure", you are among those counted blessings.

Thank you,
