Our Founder/Edβs latest musings:
Why is it that you donβt hear more people say about closets: βIβm coming out as a millionaire.β Or I have a closet full of Tom Ford suits in your size that Iβd love to give you for free.
I look forward to celebrating their hard-earned success and future impact at the ceremony. Please join me in congratulating these incredible graduates in the comments below! π

I had the privilege of supporting these advocates directly by facilitating the BFGP Presents Feeding Our Mental Health workshops. Based on the students' needs, I was also able to add an additional class: Strategic Career Planning, drawn from a chapter in my new book, The Compassionate Path.
The momentum continues this month as they prepare for their November 19th graduation ceremony, where five cycles of the next generation of peer advocates and leaders will receive their certificates.
