Testimonials
The conflict management section was most beneficial to me. The topics that were covered and discussions that we had made me think about why I enter into conflicts at all, and then how to mange them better when I do encounter them. This has been a big issue for me in many relationships in my past and I believe I have learned some excellent strategies to handle conflict more effectively. -S.S.
The stress triggers section was very helpful for me. It really made me take a look at what is important to me and how to deal with some of these stressors and set realistic goals. -S.H.
During SYCLE I learned the importance of balancing responsibility and making time for leisure activities. I feel I am better able to handle conflicts and have the capacity to be more assertive. It is important to like myself and consider my own needs, as well as not neglecting myself during the process of helping others. -M.G.
