What do graduates of Rebuilding seminars worldwide have to say?
"I was hardly functioning at work and feared losing my job. After work wasn't any better because I went home to my empty apartment and tried to drown my sorrows by overdosing on junk food. Then I forced myself to go to Rebuilding. I learned that I wasn't going crazy and that I wasn't alone anymore. I felt the support of others going through the same thing and eventually felt inspired and optimistic about my life. Rebuilding made all the difference in the life I enjoy today." - Betty A.
"My experience in Rebuilding may have saved my life. It helped me through the ending of my 26 year marriage. This was the most painful experience of my life. I shared my journey with others going through similar experiences and we encouraged and supported each other while becoming friends. Not only did this seminar help me to survive, it gave me the ecouragement and the tools to thrive. Yes, there is life after divorce, and I am living proof!" - John S.
"After my divorce, my life was in turmoil, and I feared for myself and my children because I wasn't coping very well. All this changed when I attended the Rebuilding course. I felt like there was a process and support to get my life back. Now my life is loving, peaceful, and fulfilling." - Jennifer P.
