TESTIMONIAL

Staff Supervisor Becomes Coach for Moms B y B arbara M arcelo Staff Supervisor, CPLC, Mom Coach

Ms. Bonita and Thread of Hope Records (TOHR) have positively impacted my life in several ways. When I first met Ms. Bonita, she exuded with love. A real, genuine love and energy that you could feel whenever you are in a room with her. She runs Thread of Hope Records the same way. This allows anyone who is involved with the program - rather it be clients, staff, or colleagues to immediately establish a level of trust. Trust is imperative in any type of relationship. Secondly, Ms. Bonita has been a phenomenal role model. She not only talks the talk, but she walks the walk. Sometimes, just seeing someone do great things is empowerment in itself. Through watching Ms. Bonita, I have learned that there is no limit to what I can accomplish. Ms. Bonita and TOHR has impacted me. It was through her trust and confidence in me that positioned me very strategically, and gave me the freedom to use my skills and talents. This impacted me in that I felt more confident to go above and beyond in my position, and break glass ceilings. The program nurtured my ability to be innovative. That is priceless. She has pushed me to be great, and challenged every doubt I’ve had about my ability to succeed. Another way I have been impacted is by the connection to people and resources I have received from working for the TOHR program. That has played a crucial role in me branching out, and empowering others in so many different ways. I could go on and on about the impact and influence Thread of Hope has had on my life, but it would take all day to read. I am so grateful for Ms. Bonita, Thread of Hope Records, and just her spirit. I undoubtedly owe much of my success to her.
