“Played an important role in broadening my mental constructs”

Am happy beyond measure that I embarked on this adventure…without doubt one of the best decisions I have ever made…Have often wondered how I would have made it through the last three months without the understanding and confidence that came to me through CPM…have never before experienced such intense growth or recognized opportunities so clearly when they came disguised as challenges…retreat was without question a peak experience for me… CPM played an important role in broadening my mental constructs to encompass a greater sense of possibility for myself personally and for our collective future… I can´t thank Professor Rao enough for all the ways in which my life has become fuller and richer through being a part of the CPM community
