Pardon our  my dust. 

Early 2020, I was feverishly completing 3 comprehensive onlinecourses — this, Graphic Facilitator Confidential, and The Agerbeck Method — before leaving for a European workshop tour. (Yes, you can see where this is going.) Borders closed, I refunded folks a third of a year's income, and adapted my business to reach people virtually, safely, and happily from my Chicago studio.

Unhappily, I'm a struggling small business owner. (I know I am not alone.) The two graphic facilitation courses got set aside. These courses are 80%+ complete, the abandoned registration pages were just plain sad. 

Currently, I've opened 10 spots in this course and the GF business course open at 30% off to get the "financial oxygen" and focused time to complete these two career-transforming courses complete.
