Fakira has been very open and listens fully to my concerns. She's able to ask questions to have me to come to a conclusion that best works for me. She challenges me mentally and emotionally and lets me know it is okay to open up and release past hurt and trauma. She does not allow me to make excuses for myself which allows me to stay stagnant in my growth. I am super happy with her, and I appreciate her so much.
