What They're Saying
I searched high and low to find a facilitator that really could understand the uniqueness of our community and lead a soulful AND outcomes-driven process in a single day, and she knocked it out of the park. We're on our way to developing a shared culture of responsibility among our board that would have taken months if not years to do without her expertise... At every stage, Tracie made it clear that she got us. She is the rare combo of a facilitator who is a deep listener, understands the soul of our institutions, and gets the job done.
- Rabbi Lauren Henderson, Congregation Or Hadash
Tracie quickly became an integral part of the team, guiding us through a beautiful, thoughtful, intense and focused retreat. We achieved more in one day than I thought possible. She is a gifted facilitator, and a joy to work with. One of the things I loved about her facilitation was how she made the retreat actionable with a take-home plan, which is rare.
