GENERAL PUBLIC TESTIMONIALS Executive Producer/Co-host 'Mars/Venus with Dr. John Gray & Sherrie Nattrass' ~ Debbie Forrest; widowed mother of six and "The Course of Action has inspired me in many ways. “I'm not disabled.” That was a breakthrough. Although I collect SSI from the state because they labeled me disabled years ago, I can only buy into their tears if I say so. No longer do I say so. I have a whole perspective on life and being disabled has no part of it. Another thing this program has taught me is that the past is the past and bringing it up or dwelling on hurtful memories is not constructive or productive. This program works and I am fortunate to have been part of it." ~Kathy Hoist "In my desire to find a way to contribute to others, I have attended workshops and seminars. I've read many books and listened to literally thousands of tapes in personal development. Through The Course of Action, I've discovered what I want to do to make a difference in people's lives. This course is not 'just one more thing to be learned'; it is about taking action. I highly recommend The Course of Action." ~ Maria Choi "Today I had another breakthrough! Since taking The Course of Action, I've learned so very much. Other people have seen changes in me. I realize that my entire outlook on life has shifted. The things I use to see as burdens and trials, I now see as stepping-stones to my best self. Every “obstacle” is now simply an opportunity to grow, to expand who I am being, to evolve and develop into the person I am truly capable of becoming. I now feel overwhelmingly grateful for my biggest challenges, because I see them as my super highway to my best self. Without them, I would be complacent and stagnant. I would remain as I have been, seeing the results I have always seen. Now I feel totally saturated in gratitude for the tough stuff that helps me be more than I was. I use each challenging moment to better myself. Whining is becoming non-existent in my life. I've also learned a very important thing…that I am helping to create the people I live with. When I choose to see only the good in them, I am creating a space for them to live into. Now, when one of my kids is acting out, instead of getting frustrated or feeling like I need to correct their behavior, I think about what I can do to contribute to them. The results have been incredible for me and for my children! I love this so much. I love being involved with such clean and clear people who are working diligently to be their best! I can totally see why the course creator Mark Fourniér quit everything else to do this. Nothing else compares. I am the best I've ever been...and getting better all the time…thanks to his willingness to create this course" ~ Jeanna Jolley "I have finally started my own business thanks to you! And I'm now rollerblading for an hour every day and have sparked the interest of others. It's a good sign of accomplishment when others see you enjoying life and want to be a part of it. I'm amazed at how people want to do these things but just need someone to get them past their fear. Your program has certainly done that for me. Now I do the things I've always wanted to because I've learned how to challenge myself. I love being a good influence on people. This course is the true fountain of youth. People don't realize your age when you're feeling this good. There are many wonderful things happening in my life due to the Principles I learned in your program…Thanks for giving me the key to 'change'." ~ David Duggan, Peacemaker Audio "Thank you for sharing your work with me. The Course of Action has made me look inside, pull everything out into the light and look at the good (as well as what needs improvement). I love your formula for being my personal best by living in the present, while expressing appreciation for my life through contribution, continuous improvement and taking risks to share my vision of the world." ~ Kelli Berube "Thanks again for the insights. This week has been GREAT! I have been quite up and excited about the newfound freedoms I am creating in my mind. I think everyone at the salon thinks I am on some type of happy pills. In fact, the girl that sits next to me that has worked with me for 7 years asked what I was on. I smiled and said that I was just happy. THANKS for EVERYTHING!" ~ Mack Fenn " The Course of Action has blessed my life more than I can tell you. It has taught me how to believe in myself and go forward with my dreams. It has helped me to face my fears and conquer them. I have learned to contribute to others without being attached to the outcome. In the 10 short weeks that I have been taking the class, I can honestly say I wake up each morning with excitement to face the day. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who desires a more meaningful and empowered life. I love this program, and feel that it has helped me to become a more whole person. The parts of the program that I felt were best for me were recognizing my need and embracing challenges. Facing my fears and making bold requests were also very beneficial for me, and I appreciated learning not to be attached to outcome and being my word, things I've had problems with before."~ Judy Kjar “Through this course, I learned that I have the power and ability to choose the kind of life I want to live. I have learned that I have areas of genius that I have been using naturally, but now I'm more aware of them and can accomplish more than I ever believed I could. I have everything I need to live a wonderful life right now!” ~ Norma Ward “I've learned a better understanding of myself and what I want to be. I have experienced greater confidence in my genius and my hero. I know this program has helped me expand upon my strengths and at the same time I feel more focused. Actually there is a lot more I can share but in many ways I can't find words that express what I know I have gained from this 12-week program. ~ Marilynn Igleski “Through your course, I learned that the power of one is infinite if we will make bold requests to enlist others in your cause you gain velocity & become unstoppable. I am being whom I wish to see in others & the world. I love this program; it is truly a wonderful gift. ~ Margo Worthen “I've experienced a major shift. I realized I am able to reinvent my life just by saying so and choosing honorable challenges that will help me to accomplish things beyond my wildest dreams. I learned phrases and key words that empower not only myself, but also those around me. ~ Stephanie Abney “I've learned that as human beings we limit ourselves. We are capable of so much more. Anything is possible; it's just a matter of how and when! I learned to truly be happy we must live in the now and stay in a continual state of appreciation, that selflessly serving others will improve their lives and our lives. I am response-able for my life, my actions and my own happiness. We learn and grow from our challenges and good can be pulled from any situation. I want to and can make a difference! ~ Tiffany Dastrup “I've experienced the opportunity to grow and challenge myself. I had the chance to examine my desires, goals and dreams and then in turn decide on the amount of commitment I have to them. New dreams were born, old dreams recreated and some unnecessary dreams and desires died. I found whom I was and what I want to do. ~ David Bahr “I got it!!! The ability to see why things don't happen because one or more of the commitments are missing and I am responsible.” ~ Gary Lang “I found I have become responsible to make things happen. If you want something do it. If you are bothered by something fix it. And that is great! ~ David Doretti “Through this course I have learned that I will grow and learn every day. My eyes are open to every possibility – all I have to do is meet the challenge. I learned how to find out what my genius is and to be a hero – not only for myself, but also to others. I've learned to make passionate commitments and adhere to them everyday. I want to set an example for my loved ones and everyone I meet. I will find a way and I know everything will be all right because I say so.” ~ Laura Dudzinski “Through your program, I learned to step out of the shadows and ensnaring muck of the Past and live a new life in the Present. I no longer make the excuse that my environment not only shaped me but also detrimentally damaged me beyond repair. I choose to create my own destiny, one that will not only bring satisfaction, but also serves others in a unique and fulfilling manner, for I know that it is only in helping others that we help ourselves. My future will be a bright beacon and inspiration for others. I will not live a life of quiet desperation but a life of riotous fun, scholastic achievements, and inspiring acts. I called up one of my hometown's papers and interviewed with the editor today. He'll show his producer my writing portfolio and resume tomorrow and call me. I could become a reporter! I'm taking risks and am courageously committed and challenged to and by them. When you had me declare that I was not disabled, it opened up many doors of possibilities for me. Thank you.” ~ Kathleen Hoist
CORPORATE/EMPLOYEE TESTIMONIALS: "We've tried them all! "This program redefines leadership! I never knew what true leadership was until I took this course. And now, it not only helps me in my employee-client relations, but it is proving to be invaluable in my personal relationships, including those I have with my six sons!" ~ Jeanean McDowell; Owner, Secrets of the Heart "As a public speaker in the personal growth arena, I have led over 150,000 people, but until now, I could never say that I was an Empowered Leader. The thousands of dollars and years of effort I had previously invested in learning 'Leadership' resulted in a tiny fraction of what I discovered during this one course! It has done what the others could not. I am now, for the first time ever, not only an Empowered Leader, but as a direct result of The Empowerment Experience, I am also being my absolute best in every area of my life!" “In my opinion, this PROGRAM and its CONTENT is perfect!!!! " The Course of Action has made me look at myself through a totally different set of eyes. It has truly shown me how to take control of my destiny. Now that I have the proper tools, I know that 'everything is possible, it's just a matter of how and when'." Gwendolyn F. Davis; Boeing " The Course of Action is a powerful 12-Week course. It ingrains simple techniques on how to be happy, fulfilled and in control of your life. The Course of Action ' definitely exceeded my expectations!" ~ John Petrilli; Business & Planning Analyst; Boeing "You can tell that the people involved in this program are not in it as a business; they are in it as a passion! They are in it because they love to help others. I strongly recommend this course to any organization, on any level. Because we all get rusty and complacent which causes us to go off track, a course like this helps us realign, reunite and get the rust off!" ~Joseph Tidwell Engineering & Technical Education Coordinator (Training Director); Boeing “I acquired insight into myself and my 'genius'. I was given the opportunity to dream and set goals beyond my wildest imagination! I have new tools to use that will help me be my best and live my best. Most of all, I gained confidence in myself and I am now unstoppable!” ~ Buzz Keegan; Boeing "I was already giving life my best effort. I already had long and short term goals in place and I was heading toward them; yet, I was procrastinating. This course has helped me move forward with more vigor! I advanced my goal to loose weight and I lost 20 pounds in the first eight weeks of this course! I especially recommend this course for anyone who would like to learn how to become more vibrant and enjoy life!” ~Richard McKeever; Boeing “A strong message!” You will get from it what you put into it.” ~John Schibler Engineering Manager, Mfg.

Participants immediately receive a proven process to overcome all obstacles in their career/personal life and instantly turn them into opportunities. It has positively changed my life, along with everyone I know who has ever taken this course. Stretching, reaching and courageously adventuring beyond my self-imposed limitations has made my existence much more meaningful, rewarding and fulfilling. I have recreated myself and experienced a revelation during these sessions. I encourage everyone to be their best every moment of every day and discover the miracles they create as a result. I cannot thank the Center for Empowerment enough for the impact this course has made on my life.” ~ Thomas Rudeen, Business Financial & Planning Analyst; Boeing "I have gotten more from The Course of Action than from 44 books and many seminars. I now have a better life because the material did stick and is believed. 'Impossible goals' can now be reached and I am going for them. I have learned to conquer fear; that 'contribution' is a 'must' to be happy; that I must have a clear vivid vision if I want to achieve my goals and I must surround myself with those who support me. I believe I can do anything! I am Enjoying and living in the moment!" ~ Charles Foster; Boeing (lost 50 pounds during first 24 weeks of the program) “This program has helped me and my family more than any other of its kind, in the area of parenting and relationships. Our family life has really blossomed into all I ever imagined. We still have problems, but we each tackle those problems like empowered people rather than victims.” ~ Lisa Ketring; Security officer; Boeing “I now have power to control my life and destiny. I have gained a greater appreciation for the things that I can do…A greater confidence in myself to be a stronger person. I am less of a victim now, and in better control of my life! Nothing is impossible!” ~Melanie Byers, Boeing “Coming into the class, I was familiar with the '7 Habits of Highly Effective People.' This class gave me an even deeper understanding of what makes us happy…the essentials…the empowering principles that have given me a structured way of thinking through what it takes to be happy. It also helped me understand how other people tick. This course is well worth the time and energy investment! It has helped me understand how to be a happier person. and dealing with the daily challenges that life presents.” ~Michael Soete; Boeing I gained a better understanding of how I could achieve my goals, receive and provide support to others, and make conscious choices that will make my life better.” ~ Mike Schachte; Boeing “As a result of this program, I was inspired to make a bold request. I asked my manager for part-time. I was afraid to discuss my true career goals; however, since I was 'passionately committed' to balancing my career and personal life, I decided it was time to live my life the way I envision my future.” ~ Jeannie Hampton; Boeing “I have a better attitude about accepting tasks in addition to my already huge workload. I've stopped the internal whining and now look at the extra tasks as wonderful challenges. I now know that challenges are fun!” ~ Tequila Sepulveda; Boeing “When I began The Course of Action, I had an overwhelming feeling of sadness, deflation and cynicism. I was "burned out" on life, and I was a victim. I immediately felt the positive energy flowing through the room as I entered the first day of the course. This energy instantly lifted me and gave me a feeling of hope that grew over the next nine weeks of the course. My life changed that day and it has never been the same since. I feel that as I incorporate each of the ten commitments, there are no boundaries as to where I can go in my life. I am grateful for the life changing impact it has had!” ~ Sharon Loncar, Quality Specialist/Boeing “This program has opened me up to all kinds of possibilities that I would have never even considered in the past. It has given me a sense of a better self in dealing with work, family, personal, and friends in my life. I would highly recommend this program for everyone!” ~Nan Molina; Boeing "I have watched participants in this program conquer life-long challenges, break crippling addictions, eliminate self-defeating behaviors and trade dis-empowering habits in for empowering ones…all as a direct consequence of this incredible and unique program, not to mention the 'miracles' that it has generated in my own life! The Course of Action has already significantly and permanently altered my life. I now know exactly what it takes to accomplish any worthwhile desire. The once enormous chasm that separated me from my potential has been eliminated! I am now being my potential! I am fully present now. I am really living…not just surviving! Each moment is alive with purpose and possibilities!" ~ Sherrie Nattrass (Exec Producer & Co-Host 'Mars/Venus Relationships' with John Gray) For more information email: Info@CenterForEmpowerment.com
