Vicky shared so many valuable reasons for her mission and purpose, something that is worth highlighting “our professionals prepare every day, to work with a family on their worst day”. Wow.

Such a fantastic opportunity to build your toolbox to sever clients to the absolute best of one’s ability. Growth, national chapters now growing into Canada, France and currently building up a French Chapter that will be able to help serve French speaking families, couples, children and professional partners.
