Here is what one of our current Guides has to say about her experience of the program.
“The Liminal Guide Certificate Program equipped me with an entirely new set of tools and perspectives in assisting people in their journey through transition. I appreciate the program’s unique insights, the experiential approach, and the collaborative learning process. I came away with practical approaches to a process of discovery, growth, and application. The program enhanced my skill set as a licensed therapist in assisting people to see, and step past, current roadblocks in the pursuit of their desired future.”
— Paul Gebben
“There is not a single area of my life where the Liminal Space Certification Program hasn’t had a profound impact. Whether in my role as a pastor walking individuals and congregations through life transitions, my role as a consultant and coach working with individuals, teams, and organizations through transitions and culture change, or even as a parent coming alongside my children as they navigate their own liminal spaces, the tools I received from the program have fostered deep transformation in me and in those with whom I work. No matter what job you are in, or what your field of expertise is, if you work with people, this certification will revolutionize your relationships and ability to empower people as they handle both the expected and unexpected transitions in their lives. The best part is, it will help you do the same for yourself!”
