THF helped clear away the fog and predisposed uncertainty of transition. Preferences and priorities helped me the most early on, because I realized mine had changed, but I was still stuck in my own past. Phil, Rachel and Shannon, did an amazing job facilitating this course. Also Katie Wiesel, my coach did an outstanding job… Read more »

THF was nothing short of transformational. I am a new man, and that’s not an exaggeration. I know how to dress for success, I know how to structure my resume, linkedin, and interviews because I know what the hiring managers are looking for. That’s another biproduct of the program that no one brings up –… Read more »

As a Special Forces Captain with 10 years of military experience, I thought knew everything prior to starting THF…Joking! Seriously, I started THF very anxious about ‘what’s next?’. Although I don’t have a definitive answer to that question, I am undoubtedly in a better position now than I was three months ago. THF helped me… Read more »
