***

"My goal was to cleanse myself of my negative, self-defeating thoughts and regroup. The writing was very healing - and I'm not one to write!"

***

"Leah, your gentle persistence brought all of us out of ourselves, and some of us out of shells. As you assembled our writings and patiently worked with us, it became apparent that we were creating something special."

***

"Leah, thank you for your creative, innovative nature, and your patience. I feel pride about what we created, and I thank you for that gift."

***

"You've created a safe environment for me to bring the fear, hurt, and anger from the depths of my soul out into the light, where I could take a look from a different perspective. You accepted me as I am. I constantly felt your unconditional love - how rare, and how wonderful! Thank you."

***

"I was able to see my own anger, fear, and self-pity mirrored back to me from the pages of my writing, and I've let go of so much. Working with you has been a healing experience that boggles my mind when I think about it - the process has been so quick. We've unwrapped layers and layers of stifling emotional bandages, and now I feel so free."

***

"Leah, I came to you afraid to show myself, content to hide behind the written pages I create. Now I know how to stand up straight, and how to look a person in the eye without glancing away. I can put my arms around someone - squeeze a houlder, pat a hand - without clenching up inside. And I believe that the words I speak out loud are just as compelling as those I put down on paper."

"Somehow Leah's inspirational idea of creating a workshop for breast cancer survivors has been more than just a workshop. It's been an incredible journey through the unknown, exploring a personal experience I never wanted to know. Leah's gentle manner has allowed me to feel at ease and comfortable in an area that terrifies me: acting with real words. I've always wantedc to try it, but never had the encouragement, until now. Thank you. Those two simple words seem so small, but are filled with joy, laughter, tears, hestitation, friendship, and so much more."

***

"I have been able to move on even more with my life.  I understand that I'm not the only one that has been through cancer and it was nice to hear other people's aspect of the disease. "

***

"Until this workshop I was always jealous of people who said that getting cancer helped them to appreciate things more or made a big change on them for the better. If it hadn't been for the cancer I would not have been eligible to take the workshop and I would have missed out on one of the most outstanding experiences of my life."

***

"People who knew me before tell me that I was definitely changed by the experience. I am more open and feel more confident."

***

"If someone who has an opportunity to do this workshop thinks that it's not for them because it's too much of a reach, please do it. You will not be sorry. You should not think that you need the skills in advance because you learn them as you go along. You find strength within yourself and also from the others in the group who have all of the same fears and weaknesses as you."

***

***

"This was a fantastic workshop, and a truly memorable life experience. I will treasure it in my heart forever, and the lessons I've learned—about sharing, about speaking, about telling the truth—will carry me ever upward."

***

"Leah taught us to give ourselves permission to tackle something we were unsure of having the ability to do. We realized it is important to be heard and we all have stories to tell."

***

"Leah is wonderful - we need more like her!"
