How long has it been since you felt at peace in your life....in your family...in your relationships...in yourself? We chose an olive leaf as our logo because and olive leaf symbolizes peace, and we believe that peace comes by nurturing healthy relationship connections. Maybe you have a difficult child, teen, spouse or extended family member. You want peace in that relationship, and you wake up every morning hoping things will be better....but the same unhealthy patterns happen again and again. You are exhausted from searching for ways to stop the behavior, which only causes more tension in the relationship.
