Mindy is an artist, school psychologist, and minister of metaphysics. She is hoping that this class will allow each learner to feel more confident and clear regarding one's value, place in the world, and unique gifts. She believes everyone is born creative and that our task is to remember and release it. Creativity can be expressed in an infinite number of ways, whether as an artist, a parent, an accountant, a nurse, a delivery driver, or through any other role we may have in life. Like spirituality, creativity is an expression of who we are. So it is perfect.

Reach out to her if you would like to learn more about this new class.
