Natalie led a 2 day training called PATH (Positive Action Toward Healing) for a group of our predominantly white church congregation. Along with our members, several friends of color joined to share their prospective. It was a very impactful process, based in scripture and grounded in respect for all people. Our members were enlightened to learn why they react to some things out of historical conditioning. Exercises in listening to others and other tools she provided brought racial reconciliation to the forefront of Christian responsibility. I attended her PATH at another church before asking her to present at our church. Everything I have had the privilege to participate under Natalie's leadership has shown her heart for the diversity of God's people. While she has started with some education, she is intentional to put action into our awareness development. It's been a blessing to be engaged with a group of diverse people supporting her mission.

I met Natalie when we were trained and facilitated Trauma Healing Groups. I recruited her to the Ad Hoc Group Against Crime to provide grief and trauma counseling for families damaged by violence. And more recently Natalie has led faith-based racial reconciliation and unity workshops and ethnic unity worship experiences through local church congregations. Natalie is experienced in coaching and counseling people and and able to establish positive rapport with a diverse range of people. She provides a safe atmosphere and relates to people authentically and in a natural manner. People are naturally drawn to her and enjoy being with her. They feel liked and accepted. She has quality relationships with those who serves and with her colleagues. Her knowledge and experience along with her ability to relate make her effective in assisting others to make constructive changes in their lives. Natalie would prove valuable to any organization with goals to assist others to improve their lives.

For several years, Natalie has provided a very safe space to process my thoughts, emotions and plans for the future. I have also referred friends to Natalie's services, as they experienced life's challenges. I have noticed considerable personal growth - particularly in the area of leadership - as a result of Natalie's coaching. I believe others will find Natalie's coaching extremely beneficial as well.

I founded The New Song Gospel Cafe, a connection point for multiethnic, and multi-generational people to worship together as Revelation 5:9 and 7:9 describe. Various artists from all denominations, ethnic groups and ages bring their worship center stage so participants and guests can be exposed to and appreciate the diversity of God's Kingdom.
