What Our Students Are Saying

Lisa and Allen – you two are AMAZING people! I can’t even describe how much you’ve inspired me with your artistic talent and journaling classes! Thank you for giving us permission to color outside the lines, connect with ourselves more deeply through journaling, and honor our need to care for ourselves through creativity and play. And thank you for the journal where I could record my notes and collage my memories of the day. ❤ Erica Mito, Student

What Our Clients Are Saying

Allen and Lisa gave a very well thought out, fun, and interactive presentation on journaling for our group of first responders and mental health professionals. Many in our group were new to journaling, so having a presentation in our own environment was convenient and very much appreciated. Allen and Lisa had our space all set up for the group class, and I am so happy with the feedback that I received from my team. We are looking forward to setting up another group journaling session in the future.

"I only came to your presentation because of my friend. Journaling, using images, and incorporating essential oils are all new to me. Now I'm excited to start a journal so I can include copies of my grandmother's handwriting plus one to preserve memories of special times with my granddaughter."

I was caught in a "change of life" cycle.

I've forgotten my identity beyond my job. I enjoyed the concept of creating in nature and have been working on the suggestions for experimenting with my journal. I'm starting to remember what my interests are and what I enjoy doing.
