“All people want to be seen, heard, and valued. It’s that simple. We as humans, whether we are three years old or eighty years old, just want to feel that when we speak, we are being listened to, and that what we say matters, even if only for a moment.”

“For me, Coworking = Community. Being a member of this coworking space has given me so many opportunities to meet new people, learn new things, and grow both personally and professionally.

“As cliche as it sounds, my son is my inspiration. I never thought I would be able to do such an intense program after having a child. My husband and my family have all sacrificed a lot to help get me through this program. This whole process is to get a better quality of life! I have 614 days left… but who’s counting? “
