I believe in recovery because I've lived it, and every teacher, coach, and consultant that works with me fulfils the requirement of having that irreplaceable first-hand experience.  Those hard won lessons are what make our trainings and our work so powerful.  

Here is what I mean by each one of these values. 

Dignity - I recognize the inherent dignity of each person and each situation.  Kindness and respect are the hallmarks of this recognition.

Recognition - I have knowledge and skill that people need.  The only way my work can be helpful to others is to display it in full view, without hesitation.

Responsibility - I take responsibility for my personal growth and professional excellence.

Integrity - I do the right thing, at the right time, for the right reason.

Self Determination - I am the navigator of my journey.  I seek guidance from advisors, but the final decisions are mine.
