Kind Words from Past Students

“I feel much more on track and focused and Ana has provided me with such great tools that I feel incredibly confident moving forward. I’m excited to see my plans come to fruition and I’m incredibly thankful that this cohort was scheduled at just the right time to get me over a few unexpected humps. I took so much away from our meetings that I not only feel organized and motivated; Ana really helped me look at TBLP for the first time and get down to the nitty gritty of my WHY.”

Royce Timoshevik, Think Big Little People

“I felt like she is a loving guidance counselor who has been there, and can help you do some of the hard but essential work in the school of life and business. It was awesome and validating to be in a group of folks that understand the need and drive for wanting to create new ideas, products, businesses, and really a space to dream of a new reality.”

Yuki Cloud, Disco Cloud Designs

“The Hot Seat was really fantastic because it just zeroed in down to a laser, pinpoint moment for me about what I'm good at, what I like to do, and how this works best given the program that I'm designing.”
