LAUNCH GARNER CLASS OF 2022
GRADUATE SPOTLIGHT
Launch Garner was a fantastic experience for me ! I was finally motivated to put the dreams and ideas in my head onto paper in a way that communicated the value of my business . The classes taught me so much about thinking through that vision and plan , and the mentoring and networking gave me the confidence I needed to make it all a reality . I couldn ’ t have asked for a more positive and uplifting way of bringing our homeschool center to fruition .
