Here’s what they’re saying:


“Paul’s presentation style is truthful and uplifting. 
I valued learning how to think about my own triggers so that I can focus on the positive.
I also learned how employees have to change from within themselves. I plan to focus on employees positive strengths.”

Sabrina Miller

“Paul was direct and tender to the topics. I valued the idea of seeing an outcome positively rather than dwelling on just the negative. Paul is moving. He cares about you, your train of thought and it’s inspiring.”

Candace Sefo
SSAEYC Regional Tapestry Conference


“Paul is relatable and had very good information because he has “been there” and “done that” for the situations he presents on.  I valued knowing that I am a leader, but I have to believe in myself now.  Paul is OUTSTANDING!”
