Leanne was an exceptional leader. She was consistently professional, yet warm, supportive, and encouraging of everyone to actively participate. It was very beneficial to hear from Randy, who has been living with PD for some time and his sharing his journey, successes, etc. I’m so thankful for this course and the opportunity to participate.
