Working with LBA has been deeply transformational for my organization and for me personally and professionally. The way that Annie is able to nurture while challenging is truly a gift. I am so grateful to the ways she has impacted my growth and development as a leader, but also just as a human being committed to equity, justice and self-actualization. She is also a flexible, organized, professional and innovative systems thinker. No matter what issue your organization is facing she will humanize it and find a systemic way to get results. 10/10 recommend!

Love before All provided professional development and personal growth experiences for our team of early childhood educators and we could not have been more pleased! Annie designed a dynamic and engaging plan that aligned beautifully with the needs and requests we shared in advance. We plan to have them back and highly recommend Love Before All to others looking for meaningful growth and learning experiences!

Our team was vocal about their impactful experience in a Compassionate Community workshop delivered by Love Before ALL. They praised the content, the energy, and the flow - appreciating Annie Paraison's warmth and expertise as facilitator. They have directly asked to bring this training back for more staff members next year.
