“Thank you for your presentation and your love of what you do! It is obvious to anyone that you care deeply about creativity and about passing on that flame to those who are ready to listen. Thanks for a breath of fresh air and an inspiring time!” - Mary Efthymiou “Ginger was very positive, thorough and flexible. She was always incredibly encouraging and helped to instill confidence in me. She could not have been more helpful.” - Karissa Strickland “We participated in your workshop. It was fantastic!” - Julie Windegaard, Norway “Ginger Carlson skillfully demonstrates that the things we need to inspire are within ourselves and our homes. Her love of wonder is infectious, and her prescription for nurturing children is both creative and practical." - Josh Golin, program manager, Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood “…full of encouragement and inspiration, quick tips and ideas, and detailed instructions for those who think they are creatively challenged." - Lawrence J. Cohen, PhD, author, Playful Parenting “Ginger Carlson offers a multi-facetted, thought-provoking approach.” - Arun Toké, Editor Skipping Stones Magazine “I arrived in Baghdad and have a few hours of waiting at the US military airport base before taking the nighttime helicopter flight to the embassy. Our helicopters only fly at night, and with no lights. I found myself swept away by your poetry, by its gentleness, its messages of hope and rejuvenation, and the manner in which it exalts the transformational power that is always at our fingertips. And yet you touch on these themes in different and original ways that make each poem a pleasure to read. If I am reading them right, your poems appear to emerge from deep introspection, and from there you fashion your revelations and craft them in a manner that is profound, revealing, and easily understood. You urge your readers to wake up to new realities, to see new things, to imagine, to believe. There is a tranquility in your poems that allows the reader to sense the gentle silence of reflective moments, and touch what is fashioned out of the meditation. And you call on them to put away petty concerns and follow in the journey.” - A Reader “Ginger was AWESOME! I think anyone would be lucky to have her as a mentor.” - Katie Bryant “Ginger provided both support and feedback in a professional, but very sensitive manner: she dealt with my challenges very well and was willing to spend additional time with me when needed.” - Debra Lydum “Ginger always had new and different ways of looking at things and a wonderful perspective. She was the most helpful coach I’ve ever had.” - Andrea Reynolds “Ginger is a clear-sighted, realistic visionary.” - Melissa Hart, author “A joyous antidote… those who explore [Ginger’s] wealth of ideas will benefit themselves, their children, and the future potential of our society.” - Jane M. Healy, Ph.D., Educational psychologist and author of Your Child’s Growing Mind: Brain Development and Learning from Birth to Adolescence
