Client Reviews
“I felt the biggest takeaway for me was intuitively picking the symbols that represented certain things in my life and to unpack that layer by layer with God. I felt very seen and known by God and the workshop confirmed quite a number of things He has been speaking to me about personally which is a great encouragement, even with the activity of “Message from Someone”. The littlest of things such as the color of the binder of our worksheets resonated with me with what God has been showing me in my season, even though Joanne would not have known this prior to the workshop and the picking of a worded calligraphy randomly among us was absolutely spot on with the words exactly reflecting what I have been doing in my life. I feel the level of detail, care, thought, sensitivity to the Holy Spirit that Joanne put into the workshop is incredible, one that really touches you on a personal manner and she created a very safe space for us to share vulnerably with each other as well. My favorite part was getting to hear about each other’s reasons of picking their symbols which represented different parts of their lives and the message from someone that felt like a prophetic blind box which turned out to be very encouraging for everyone as well!”
— Mingwei“I joined the Symbols Workshop (Christian Edition) with a sense of curiosity and anticipation as to what I'll glean about myself from symbol work. Every activity provided much room for God to speak words of truth, wisdom, encouragement and love into my heart. I recall feeling alive and safe to explore and express myself throughout the session. The small group setting and light-filled space also provided a cosy environment for quiet reflection. I left the workshop with a refreshed spirit. A wonderful way to welcome 2026!”
— ZW“Being in a safe space, sharing with fellow Believers whom are total strangers is so refreshing, healing & encouraging.”
— LV“I signed up for the workshop with a curious and open mind, anticipated that there might be tears and deep sharing amongst us, too. Thankful for Jo and the rest of the participants for holding space. There was no judgment, just empathy and encouragement. And the activities were beyond eye-opening for me - fun but spirit-led. Throughout the session, I was able to hear Abba Father's gentle promptings, received visions and through the work of the Holy Spirit, bless another. An empowering and humbling experience.!”
— IB“The message from someone really spoke to my heart, it was such a sharp word shared. The symbols that each represented now carry such a special meaning to me as a motivational for me to enter 2026. It’s almost like the symbols have now come alive for me in the most intimate and powerful way.”
— GM“It was very comforting to witness everyone step into the space to connect with God, listen for His still small voice, and do so without hesitation or fear. My biggest take-away was hearing how I’ve impacted each person on the team—in both big and small ways, and even through my imperfections. It felt like receiving a glimpse of how God sees me through the eyes of others. The experience was deeply encouraging, affirming, and truly touching, and I believe a deeper bond was formed among us that day.”
— AH, attended workshop with colleagues“As I continue to think about what I’ve received after the workshop, I told myself that “2025 is a good year”, which was surprising for me because it’s rare that I would say so. Often the EOYs are a blur for me, clouded with so many activities that hurried me into the new year which leave me unsatisfied. But through Joanne’s workshop I got to slow down, be attentive to what God wants to tell me and be reminded of the many good things He has done. Thank you Joanne for creating this intentional space!”
— Shelyce“The idea of using symbols/toys to connect with our internal voice and learning to flow with our intuition to pick the symbols was fun and insightful. The activity helped me to open up safely and calmly. The connection I felt to my inner voice was very unexpected. I also really appreciated the exchange of message.”
