• Personal Development Program May 16, 2023
  “The plan is to really use this as a personal development program for our caregivers. We love to hire from within. Health care is complicated.

• Financial Institution May 16, 2023
  “The Pacific Institute has helped us unleash our potential. We are a different bank than the one they first started working with. Then, we were stable horses. Now we’re a herd of thoroughbreds.

• Controlling the Effectors January 13, 2022
  Our thoughts have a huge effect on how we cope with the world around us, on a daily basis. In fact, our thoughts are the primary “effectors” in our lives.
