“When I took Susan Vernicek’s Identity 5 Workshop, I knew it would be a fun, inspiring night out. But, it was SO much more than that! I answered questions about myself that I hadn’t stopped to think about in a long while. To be honest, it was difficult to focus solely on me – I’m a wife, a mother, a daughter, a friend, a sister – and usually when I think about what I appreciate or love, it is the joy that comes from being any one of those things! But, to be forced to look inward, I hadn’t verbalized in quite some time some of the quirks I’ve grown to accept, or the traits that I appreciate! And, being surrounded and supported by other women in the Identity 5 Workshop made it even more powerful! It felt good to share openly and hear other women’s stories! I think every woman deserves to take time to rediscover herself, and joining the workshop is beyond an indulgence, it is absolutely necessary! I had a refreshed perspective on my ‘identity’.” – Jennifer Tuma Young
“I have struggled in recent months with difficulties, and find that I can easily focus on my problems. At the Identity 5 workshop, your questions revealed that at heart, I AM a positive person. You changed the focus to my strengths” – ES
