Pattie Belle assisted our medical start-up on several occasions, including a half-day in-person group facilitation as well as several online zoom group sessions. Her exercises and counsel provided us with an invaluable resource to focus us on the tasks before us. She did so with good humor and managed a diverse group with many different needs in a way that helped unite us and productively reach for the goals that we sought. I am thankful to Pattie Belle for her wise counsel and skillful approach. RK, CT, USA (Prosocial Vision)

What was the most valuable takeaway from this workshop for you? Embracing ambiguity • Fail fast/Fail often • Making 3D prototypes is thought-provoking • That my org should listen more to consumers • Linking the process to practical steps and methods • Get out of the comfort zone • Not be complacent about challenges • The need for creativity in improving elder care • Allowed us to work together and have results to display! • That we can all do design thinking • Knowing that its ok to express ideas on paper first, especially being in a meeting with all extroverts • Hands-on is always a great way of learning • Kept us engaged and forced us to go outside our comfort zone • It will help me and my team with challenges we are currently dealing with • Excellent workshop! ~ Design Thinking @ LeadingAge Massachusetts Leadership Academy

With eyes, arms, and heart open wide, Pattie Belle entered my shared studio environment and proclaimed it a safe space to be creative for us all. To be vulnerable and intentional. She embraced the class of 25 in its entirety and was able to help us navigate the chaos of ideas that continuously bounce around our heads. Myself, as an artist, I am full of ideas, and with Pattie Belle‘s guidance, I was able to organize them in a way that would then allow me to see them all at one time, easily. She gave me the space to analyze each idea through thinking, visuals, and notetaking. She then gave us tools to execute these ideas with a workflow that was conducive to my style. She has given me a helpful tool that I use continuously. MH, CT, USA (Life Mapping)

I attended a Life Mapping workshop and left feeling organized, motivated, and like I had a much better perspective on my priorities. Pattie Belle is thorough, organized, and intentional in her workshop planning and facilitation. She thoughtfully guided the attendees through the 'territories' of our lives - personal + professional; mind, body, spirit; physical, and emotional. It was SO helpful to think about each of these areas individually and find my priorities and balance. I left the workshop with a new tool to use whenever I am feeling overwhelmed and in need of a pause to organize my life. This workshop absolutely applies to anyone and everyone - I highly recommend it. CM, CT, USA (Life Mapping)

PB did two sessions with our group that is in the planning stages of opening a mental health wellness center. She was extremely professional, accommodating, empathetic, and productive. She asked thoughtful, introspective questions to hone us in on what we needed to address in a thoughtful way, and the material she presented was holistic and relevant. I would highly recommend her!
