Testimonials
L4L gave me the inspiration to believe that I myself could turn an idea into reality from start to finish. It was the catalyst to a transformation within me to understand that a leader doesn't always have to have every step planned out beforehand, but rather constantly adapts one’s plan to fit the current situation- with the end goal always in mind. Prior to experiencing L4L and all that followed, I despised oral presentations, I stuck to what I knew, and I left the "big decisions" to the adults. Leaders for Life International changed all of that: it gave me confidence. It gave me the confidence to find my voice, to adore debate and model UN, to co-found a club devoted to leadership, and to pursue a college degree at Dartmouth College in a league of colleges I previously could only ever have dreamed of. L4L made me realize that my voice was important, and that with confidence, I could use my voice to lead the world.

Leaders for life has impacted me to strive for the best in every situation. Not only that , but it has taught me to be diverse and network. It has put me in positions that has made me matriculated into different business fields such as radio and communications and has helped me establish my personal brand as a college student.

It seems like ages ago that I stepped off the plane in Colorado to attend what was to be an incredible week with L4L. Although I only attended for one summer, L4L left a lasting impact on me as a curious, ambitious, yet not completely confident teenager. Throughout the week I learned an incredible amount about myself, my beliefs and about those around me. After being pushed to present my ideas for starting a socially minded business to a large group, I realized not only how much I enjoyed public speaking, but also found that people actually like to listen. It may sound like a small detail, but this realization stuck with me throughout college and continues to serve me as I begin my post grad life. After L4L my simple idea became a reality and lives on as a club focused on social impact in a few colleges and high schools around New York State.

Teresa creates an environment where women can share, grow, dream and be inspired. We gathered as a group of women who come to seek and explore and left the weekends as friends.

“High Intention-Low Attachment” was the insight I received from this workshop. Each individual experience was different and special. Taking the time to witness and be witnessed was incredibly cathartic. I feel less alone on the journey and have a renewed strength to face the days ahead of me.

The value Teresa provides is opening up minds and hearts to the possibilities that life has to offer. She provides opportunities to explore the strengths within us and the dreams we haven't given voice to. So many of us simply don't have the knowledge or skills to delve into ourselves; As a facilitator, she led us down a path to self-discovery - a path easier to follow in the future, now that I have been shown the way!

5 Star Review! Powerful visualization support for advanced cancer patients. Shortly after I was diagnosed with advanced cancer in 2012, I started virtual visualization sessions with Teresa over the phone. Visualization work is a technique endorsed by Bernie Siegel, a doctor and author that writes about exceptional cancer patients that beat the odds. Teresa would lead the session, take copious notes, and then would share insights with me in a follow-up call. I always felt relaxed following the session and our follow-up conversation brought up images that were thought-provoking and spiritually important. I'm thriving now and strongly believe Teresa's work led to emotional and physical healing! I continue to talk to her regularly and would strongly recommend her services to others, near or far!

Teresa creates women’s renewal programs where we’re encouraged to slow the chatter in our mind, connect with women and consider what’s really important in our lives, in the beauty of nature and feminine fellowship.

L4L Teen Week - My 15 year old son hesitantly attended the week. No academics, no competition, no athletic pressure-just teens connecting with teens and sharing an appreciation for one another with self discovery along the way.
