"After years of therapy and self-help books, I was amazed to find I was capable of experiencing a real transformation in such a short period of time. Andrea and Laina helped me uncover things about myself and my self-defeating patterns that I had not discovered in traditional therapy. I was able to reconnect with myself on a deeper emotional level and face feelings I've been hiding from most of my life. There was no where else for me to hide. I finally found a safe place to express what I had been trying to escape. Now, I have the opportunity to live a life of self-acceptance and authenticity...and with that comes the peace I have been longing for. Thank you for helping me find my true self!"

"Andrea, thank you so much for such a wonderful weekend! You are the most amazing woman I've ever met! I hope that you DO write a book because it would be such a wonderful thing if your gift could touch all those lost souls out there. My inner child is so very happy I found her. I found her because of you!"

"The Self Awareness Weekend [SAW] is an incredibly enlightening, healing, life enhancing experience. I entered with skepticism and trepidation, I left a changed person.
For my entire life I had been ineffectively attempting to manage a recurring, life disrupting issue, failure after failure had assured me that my situation was hopeless and that I would just have to live with it. During the first hour of the program I had a major breakthrough; I realized I was participating in something very special; there was, in fact light at the end of this relentless tunnel.
Thanks to the skilled guidance of Laina and Andrea, our two highly effective, caring facilitators I learned the root causes of my problem and was provided information, guidance and phenomenal tools that continue to prove totally effective.
There's nothing hypothetical or theoretical about the SAW program, it's practical and actionable, and I highly recommend it to anyone who is serious about looking in the mirror and taking personal responsibility for significantly improving their lives. "

"I was at the end of my rope emotionally when I came to the Self Awareness Weekend. I felt that my wounds were so deep that a Group Setting would "dilute" letting out my anger and tears. Not only did the group setting facilitate letting go and expressing my emotions, it created the first safe place for me to do so. This was with guidance and support of Andrea and Laina. They coached me to find out what I wanted to replace the fear and anger with, which was honesty and personal power. I loved the Weekend and it has already positively impacted my marriage, my relationship with my children and extended family. I loved the Weekend and the safe environment to let go of my secrets and be vulnerable."

"My last year consisted of losing my marriage, getting my first bad performance review at work, and learning my job is getting downsized. Quite literally attending SAW and the Part II made it possible for me to not only survive these obstacles, but to charge headlong into these issues with my lifes torch on blaze. After Attending SAW I had co-workers ask me if I started medication, neighbors and friends that would have never even told me if my shoes were untied before tell me they loved the new changes in me. The greatest gift from all of the weekend was getting back to being a gentle soul with my children. Being their friend again and being able to interact with them with love, and patience is worth every penny. The hard road to get to the end of a Self Awareness Weekend returns your life to a state of enjoyment no matter how far down the rabbit hole you have gone. It's like Fat Camp for your soul :)"

"Andrea and Laina communicate in such a way that puts people in their own drivers seat to fully explore and clear away their deepest wounds of the past so that their lives are unblocked and success can be fully realized. It happened for every single person in our group including myself. I've done a lot of personal growth workshops for many years. This is the most free and empowered I have felt in my whole life. And it all happened because I did the work that Andrea and Laina so eloquently laid out before me. With Andrea and Laina's coaching, I have become the winner of my life!"

"I was very skeptical and almost cynical in attending SAW, but the experience was worth the risk. I enjoyed the care and concern of Andrea and Laina. They seem to be two people who are dedicated to helping people, for motives beyond money. Society is crying for people who care."

"I expected healing and a breakthrough—I got it. I felt both leaders did a great job in getting to the bottom of the problems and dealing with them. The miracles I saw happen in the people that participated was fantastic."
