‘For over 30 years Catherine and I have walked, run, laughed and cried our way through the gamut of life’s transitions. It has been my great pleasure to witness her metamorphosis into the empathic and compassionate life guide that she has become. I’ve always admired her calmness under pressure, her ability to listen and to offer whatever solace or advice the situation requires in a kind and nonjudgemental way. Connect with her and she will always have your back’.
