In her personal life, Faythe survived childhood with a family immersed in poverty, and a father with PTSD from military service.  She has experienced a ten-year marriage to a ‘functional’ alcoholic.  Faythe knows time challenges from 17 years as a single parent of three, working full time as sole provider.  She also knows change, having  moved 36 times and spent 8 years living in another country (Scotland). Despite her stint as a psychotherapist, conversation with Faythe is not therapy.  She knows how to listen and share.  As a Speaker, trainer with15 years as a CAPS member,  Faythe has perspective on the life of a speaker.
