Jan Phallen-Fike participated in three rounds of The 7-Minute
Diet™ and enjoyed the process so much she decided to become
a part of the Clear Presence™ development team. Jan combines facilitation skills with spiritual development studies. She
has been following the beat of Taiko drums the last 4 years, not only
as a student, but also as a teacher of Taiko. Jan finds that Taiko drumming
is her exercise of choice. Jan is an experienced trainer, teacher, group leader and her talents are greatly appreciated on the Clear Presence™ team. |

A note of gratitude to Lee Glickstein and Speaking Circles®
The Clear Presence™ founders, Doreen Blumenfeld and Phil Groves, are deeply grateful to
Lee Glickstein, founder of Speaking Circles International®, a program that transforms public speaking from a fearful and/or performance-based endeavor into effortless, deeply expressive and richly authentic connection.
Doreen and Phil are certified facilitators in Speaking Circles®. The have both
had extensive training with Lee at his headquarters in San Anselmo, California. We regard his work as ranking among the most powerful and transformative teachings we have ever experienced.
The Clear Presence™ programs would not exist today if we had not learned the exquisite and finely nuanced practice of deep, authentic listening from Lee. He terms this special communication "Relational Presence" and regards it as the gateway to profound communication of all kinds. We agree.
We highly recommend Speaking Circles® training for anyone who wishes to be a more genuine and effective communicator. Learn more about Speaking Circles® and Lee's work at www.speakingcircles.com. |
