Having attended this course myself, and commissioned it for women in my organisation, I would thoroughly recommend to any woman who wants to take stock and focus on their future goals. Mary creates a wonderful environment and really helps the group gel together. Personally speaking, I don’t think I would be so satisfied with where I am at this point in my life without having attended Stepping Up.
