Summary

Polly P presents a condensed version of a workshop she usually does over a weekend with her husband Dave. This was held at the West Portland Group in December of 2006. She and Dave have spoken all over the US on this topic and still do. There is some Q&A at the end, I removed the dead air where you can not hear the questions, they become clear based on the answers. This also feels like it ends abruptly but it was over.
