  In this session you will learn how to deepen the connections in your relationships based on the seven elements of trust. We will explore the relationship of vulnerability and trust.  And learn about what inhibits us from being vulnerable. We will examine all of this through the lenses of our personal and work relationships.

Join Suzanne to dissect our anxiety, grief and forgiveness to reveal an authentic and vulnerable look at stepping into our stories.
