What People Are Saying About the Experiential Workshops
Thank you, Erin, for the amazing felting session you led us in! Our time together was not only a lot of fun; it was also reflective and therapeutic.
Your calm, gentle and supportive presence added to the inspiring and uplifting experience. And at the end of the session, we each had our own adorable critter to take home – reminding us of the importance to pause, rest and recharge. Thank you for leading us in this very fulfilling exercise and project.
