The placenta encapsulation training I received from Deb was thorough and engaging! Deb has such a warm, embracing heart, and brings such authenticity to her work, she becomes a true friend in the process. The two days were filled with invaluable information and hands on experience. After training, I had so many questions when I was ready to process my first placenta, and she was so helpful and encouraging, always available for any questions. Her high standards have made me feel very confident in the process.
