Student Testimonials
This course isn’t just for those in the creative field. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to explore the intersection between work & spirituality. The tools and reflections Peter shared really breathe new life into the concept of work & how work, approached the right way, can grow us spiritually and professionally.
The best thing about this course is the coming together of content and a community of people that are looking to improve not only from an entrepreneurial perspective but also from a spiritual perspective.
The class was fabulous! It was very refreshing and comforting to discuss design and entrepreneurship in a spiritual context! It is what my heart had been craving for a long time. Thank you!
I’ve found it very beneficial because it helped me centre my thoughts, and also having Peter as a guide was really the most important part of this journey.
