Attention goes up, engagement goes up, interactivity rises. When we see this level of attention, engagement and relating through well facilitated discussions, we have the ideal environment for learning and transformation.”

Client Testimonials

"I'm 66 years old and your film DAY 94 made me finally see and accept that l have had a problem with alcohol for decades."

"I've been dating a guy for 6 months now, and I really like him so l've been hiding my recovery from him in case it scares him away. Watching FIRST DATE made me realize that this isn't helping me, him, or us, and I have nothing to be ashamed of."

"I never truly realized how much I was burning down the lives of those I loved. PARTNERS not only allows me to see it but helps me see ways to communicate and relate our mutual shame."
