What past participant say about the program:
The Thrive workshop and Nancy’s coaching has helped me grow my business. All the information, stories, examples, and group members were very beneficial and insightful. The time at the sessions and the workbook materials helped renew my excitement for why I started my own business and helped me see with fresh eyes what I offer clients. I recommend THRIVE to anyone thinking of starting a business or who owns a business. The skills & tools I learned have helped me to promote my business AND I’ve been able to apply some tools to my aid my clients.
