“For the last 30 years I have spent so much time getting to know myself, I have taken many programs, workshops, etc and it is a gift how magical MYP is. Anne has created something very special and her style of leadership and the way she guides the group is the perfect balance of impulse/nudge and giving us space, all while feeling very close to us if we need her.

The wisdom from Anne and the collective wisdom from the group, the kindness and judge free zone, the resources, the exercises, my journal, the connection calls, community, the international group.

During the past 3 months I reconnected with JOY in a way I didn't plan/expect. I consider myself pretty joyous but now it is at a new level. So many of the exercises and ideas (tiny experiments) bring me so much joy and make me giggle just thinking about them. 


Most often I want to have an END result, something to show for the work I put into an idea or project. I am giving myself permission to be ok with exploring even if it means leaving things in the exploring stage.”

“I appreciate having MYP and this community through this phase [of life]. Having gone through the exercises, reading the conversations [in the community], and above all the Connection Calls, gave me a lot of what I didn’t even know I needed. Above all I’m leaving here with acceptance. Acceptance of where I am, no longer running my business or looking for a next leadership role, but in a full time caregiving role that was very unexpected.

Letting go of that identity wasn’t easy, questioning what my role is now, and [ultimately] realising the label doesn’t matter. I can’t imagine doing anything else right now. My main intention going forward: to take out time for myself and take care of my health.”

“MYP helped me refocus my priorities and do a deeper dive into what makes me happy compared to other workshops I've done. It also gave me so many new ideas and resources that I can continue to work with on my own. It confirmed my belief that I thrive in creative communities that are different than my usual professional community. “

“Much of my recent life has been extremely challenging over the last two years. The whole thing has brought me back to life.  From meeting wonderful people in the community to meeting myself through the exercises, to your wonderful, kind and fun support and encouragement, I have adored the whole thing.  It has rejuvenated me and made me appreciate all life has to offer me.

And most importantly, I have shifted my mindset.  "What if there was another way?" is now a daily mantra in our house with my kids. Life feels full of possibility for me now.

I live in rural Scotland and loved MYP for meeting new people and being part of an international community was so important to me. Learning from others, hearing their perspectives and just knowing that other people are exploring their lives was invigorating for me. I love having the opportunity to read the MYP collective thoughts — it always brings a new/different perspective and helps things click.

MYP far exceeded my expectations. I expected to explore the direction and focus of my life through a fun creative process. What I hadn't expected was such an impactful process of unlocking how I think about my life and how to approach reframing my thinking.

The three months flew by, but looking back over the exercises and journaling notes, I realise how much I have integrated a new way of thinking. As the weeks have gone on, I have solidified that and trust in my intuition and inner knowing.

The value of MYP was clearly explained from the outset, but it was only by exploring it for myself that I realised how much more it helped me evolve ways of thinking and behaving. I've absolutely loved doing the exercises for my curiosity and creativity to have a way to express myself. 

Your role in all of this is to gently push me out of my comfort zone, connect dots, and to encourage sharing in the community —ultimately leading me to new perspectives. None of what I have done through MYP would be possible to deeply explore, embed and integrate, if I were to use a tech tool. The messiness of the exploration process is where the magic lies for me. That, and the fun, creative process.”

“Having a full time job has been all consuming for me. I recognize the importance of ensuring my identity is not tied to it and I use MYP to help uncover other parts of me but I also use MYP to enhance the work me.

When things get hectic at work, I rely on MYP and the MYP community to get re-energized and to gain perspective. I’m not always able to make the live sessions, but when I watch the replays it feels like a live session. Anne has a remarkable talent for making the replays feel like live sessions. “

“It's funny to say, but Mapping My Path led me back to myself. I saw genuine thoughts and memories come out as if they've been in the back of the closet, under the bed, on a dusty shelf. And reframing has been the most helpful lesson I learned.”

“MYP feels like BREATHING. In the past three months, I shifted to BELIEVING. My biggest insight was THIS TIME AND SPACE MATTERS.

My favorite part of MYP is all the resources and inspiration from humans in real time and in community because they always get me unstuck and help me feel connected.”

“MYP taught me that it's ok (essential, even) to take time for myself, to think, be creative and not just be caught up in the day to day of normal life every single day. I loved the workshops. I couldn't attend them all live, but you've designed them so well that I didn't feel like I was missing out on anything by watching them on replay. 

What I loved most about them was that I had to put aside 1.5 hours for myself, to think and reflect, listen to your wonderful words of wisdom and do the creative exercises. The exercises are carefully planned and all link together so perfectly that I didn't even realise the full effect until I looked back later.

I loved the connection calls and the online community, they were such great sources of wisdom and creativity. I finished MYP with fresh ideas and a renewed excitement for life and what could be possible, I will definitely be back for more in the future.”
