Testimonials
“I so greatly appreciate Brenda Reiss. Working with Brenda the past 3 months and attending the Magic of Forgiveness workshop has brought me freedom that will last my life time.”
“I feel honored and blessed to have been part of Brenda’s Class. Brenda is a natural when it comes to being a great speaker! She is organized, loving, intuitive and pays attention to detail as well as how people are feeling. The group connected so well and we all benefited from each other’s insights and experiences. This study is a life changer and for the better. I highly recommend it and with Brenda’s extensive background of training and personal skills she is by far a teacher of excellence! Thank you Brenda so much!”
“What I admire the most is that Brenda walks her talk – she radiates that joy and peace of mind which she says is possible with forgiveness. And from her story I learned that this wasn’t how she used to live – this brave woman has to heal and recreate, rediscover herself. Thank you for hope and inspiration.”
“Brenda will teach you to transform what hurts you into what heals you. Powerful medicine that all of us need.
You will immediately use the forgiveness steps as easily as you use a fork and knife. You’ll be astounded at how often this comes in handy. Once Brenda places the power of forgiveness into your hands, you’ll carry it always.
I highly recommend her as a coach and workshop guide.”
“As a coach/teacher Brenda is filled with so much caring and information and had our groups and individual sessions so thoroughly planned out. This was such an amazing process for me, not only being able to diffuse the misinformation and twisted truth that I had carried around to believe as my story, but to reframe the story and then be able to move on with a clearer and much lighter story. After years of much work in many areas, this form of spiritual clearing and unblocking is so much better for me and helps me grow in so many areas.”
“The forgiveness work Brenda does is powerful and life changing. I was able to experience forgiveness at a deeper and more freeing level. Her courage to share her story and how she walked thru radical forgiveness is evidence of how transformational it is. Going through the worksheets she provides and doing the work she teaches impacted my life and I know it will impact yours.”
“Those qualities are especially important to me when I am in need of support from a coach. I personally feel better understood if I email my dilemma ahead of time as a journaling exercise instead of being confused as to what I want from our one-on-one sessions. Sometimes just being heard was all I needed, but if not she offered me the support I needed through her personal radical approach to helping me sort out whatever it was that bothered me. Brenda is a talented coach, and she is committed to her client’s growth and wellbeing. Thanks, Brenda.” – Dean
