TESTIMONIALS

I love the simplicity of the program. As I did the work, it came into focus. Brilliant! Thank you so much for JLI. It really is life-changing and stress-relieving and joy-restoring.— Principal

Until I attended The Joyful Leadership Institute I had no idea how much I needed it! I wish I had these tools earlier in my career! It would have made a tremendous impact in every aspect of my life - personally and professionally. Every educator will benefit from this experience." — Principal

I've made so many positive changes in my work and personal life because of Lisa & her Success Path and Action Planning Process. My whole family uses her practices now ~ even my pre-school aged son! I highly recommend this experience! — Teacher

Small changes are often more powerful in the long term than large ones. I feel that JEL has empowered me to make some subtle yet powerful changes in my approach to my work, and my home life. I can often lose direction which leads to a feeling of having spun my wheels. At the end of the day I feel satisfied because I did the things I believe in doing. — Principal
