Thank you very much for sharing your expertise and insights during the course. You helped me see my career path in a different way, which I believe will help me find work that will be rewarding and meaningful.
— Mike, Piping Designer
I was born an employee. I always knew that being a business woman was not for me, and with that mindset I attended one of Gail’s sessions. It was there that I first heard about portfolio careers and never looked back. It gave me the opportunity to explore my best skills, polish them even more, and use them to shape my dream lifestyle combining a part-time job with entrepreneurial projects. It is a journey of discovery and transformation, just like life itself.

Thank you for all of the incredible advice and inspriation that you shared during the work search session. I have already been able to put a lot of it to use in my business planning.
