Favorite Quotes:

“It’s so much fun. And it’s been such an honor to be able to be part of the community. And that place and safety that Cate created so that as we’re doing this work and learning the habits and moving into coaching, we get to grow and practice in the safety of a community and with our peers. And everybody is leading and supporting each other.” --- Tania Milliken
“In Cate’s community, in 17 months, I just had so many breakthroughs in my health, my emotions, communication skills . . . really finding what I really love to do in the world.” --- Tania Milliken
“When I came to work with Cate, it was in the Living Ayurveda course as a family healer. And after I’d worked with her and done the Body Thrive program, I HAD to become a health coach because there are so many people who need the services that Cate’s offering.” --- Tania Milliken
“I didn’t want Cate’s program [Living Ayurveda] for me, but I could see some of the health and wellness benefits for my kids . . . and so I joined her family healing program. And in doing so, of course, figured out that there were other things that I also needed to be doing, that there was a level of self care I thought I was doing that I wasn’t. And inadvertently, I’d become part of the problem.” --- Tania Milliken
