I just completed the PSM course with Jacob Creech, and it was excellent. I didn't know what it would be like via ZOOM, but Jacob created a lovely vibe, and we all bonded and had a great experience while learning lots. I also appreciate all the resources Jacob provided after the course. A wonderful experience!
