Neither sleet nor snow could keep her away... She's back! On November 30th, just after the two-day snow storm that hit the West Coast, Joann arrived at The Haven to lead her first Anger, Boundaries and Safety course since her heart surgery in the summer. Her arrival with her husband Pete was a much anticipated and joyous occasion and although fatigued from the journey, she was happy to get here and to no surprise, immediately organized a meeting with the other leaders. Her dedication to what she does is a triumph to the human spirit. By all reports, her essence shone forth during the course and what was amazing to see was the transformation by the end of the four days. One of our beliefs here at Haven is that through connection we find healing. Joann’s life journey continues to be a testament to this belief. We dearly appreciate you Joann and we are so glad you are back with us.
