What does Paula Poundstone have to say about Rachel?

Maybe instead of quotes from actual participants in Rachel's past trainings like Stacey and Brandon, you'd like to hear what someone famous has to say. No judgment--when someone with a positive public image speaks well of something, it reassures you that you aren't alone in liking it. We all need validation. And Paula Poundstone is just fun to listen to.

I would recommend this workshop/training to anyone interested in learning about the effects of trauma and positive relationships within the community.”
– Aurelia, Exchange Family Center

 “Great job!! Virtual presenting is not easy and you were very engaging and changed up the format to keep the topic interesting. Appreciate you listening to how we best learn and making small groups work with those we were comfortable with.” – Erica, ECU

“Rachel is a positive person who had a difficult job to lead us in an all-day training on a Friday right before the holidays! I love how interactive she made the training. Typically I have a hard time sitting all day, but she rocked it. Great job and wonderful training!” 
– Renae, Child Care Resources

“This was excellent. The trainer was really helpful in eliciting ideas to apply concepts and to help us practice, which took a lot of energy on her part [during] this session because our energy had flagged. I found it helpful to be pushed to try my best to apply, and I also really benefited from time with my work team to begin incorporating this into our specific work.” 
– Stacey, Public School Forum of NC

"Rachel is a great presenter and I like her style of presenting material and interactive activities. I really enjoyed this training, after all. I was not looking forward to another drawn out Zoom session. Rachel, you've got an admirer.” – Abigail, Child Care Resources
