"Thanks so much for your help. You literally were the light I needed. Its been an amazing two and a half months! Life is still hard after 16 months of unemployment, but its lighter, happier, and fun. I've applied what you said in every aspect of my life, both personal and professional. You gave me the perspective I had lost over several years of family tragedy and then the job loss. So I look forward to working with you further!" - M.R.
