Letter to Barbara…

“Being in this space with you was unlike any other learning experience I’ve had. Your facilitation feels less like instruction and more like an invitation into presence—into the kind of learning that happens through the body, through relational field, through timing and resonance. You have a way of weaving poetic language, deep listening, and somatic attunement that made the entire experience feel alive. I could feel how you were tracking the group—not just what we said, but how we said it, what was underneath, and where the collective energy wanted to go. You model what it means to lead without control: there was clarity, there was steadiness, but also so much space. I felt both safe and free. These sessions weren’t just about content—they were transmissions. Something settled in me. Something remembered. Thank you for that.”
