Dr. DeLong’s talk was the best presentation I’ve attended on campus. I genuinely loved it. She is so well spoken and her story is so inspiring. I’m so glad that my college made this happen.
Dr. Peggy DeLong's passion for supporting women who are going through career and life transitions, was evidenced by her recent presentation for our participants at The Women's Center at CCM. Dr. Peggy shared useful tools and resources that attendees could easily put into practice to create more happiness and fulfillment in their lives, even while going through major life transitions. Our ladies were inspired and empowered by Dr. Peggy's message!
Before the Midlife Awakening Sisterhood program, I was struggling with midlife shifts/changes (struggle to maintain health, changing relationships - loss of friendships, child going off to college), and feeling a little lost as to what's next for me professionally and personally. I enjoyed being part of the community of other women going through similar challenges. I loved the "bite sized" video trainings, and the WEALTH of information packed into this program (Dr. Peggy always overdelivers on that with all her programs in my experience). I definitely feel calmer and more self-compassionate after participating in this program. I also find myself having more of a sense of curiosity about the future. I rarely have "down days" ... and when I do feel sadness or grief, I'm more likely to accept it and much to my surprise I process it through my body faster.
I am grateful to have learned from Dr. DeLong. She is warm, connected, and wise. I appreciate her sharing a life story of loss that she has transformed into a beautiful pathway to meaning, providing inspiration and hope for others to do the same with their own struggles. I shared her tips with my two daughters within five minutes. Extremely relatable and useful.
Dr. Peggy DeLong gave a powerful presentation! Her very welcome talk on five daily exercises in gratitude combined her professional expertise, polished speaking style, and a great deal of heart. Students, staff, and faculty took notes, sent tips to loved ones, and walked out of the hall putting those exercises into practice on the spot.
