Every audience is different, but the goal is always the same: to create an experience that people carry with them long after the event ends. Here's what attendees and partners have shared about working with Ralph.
Adult workshop Attendee
“Ralph gave us a very good understanding of how precious life is, and how simple it is to say thank you, to say sorry, and to hear, help, and hang out with friends. Today’s message really helped me realize this. It was very impactful.”
University of Arizona Student
“I will apply the lessons from this experience by being more intentional in my conversations with others. Understanding that everyone has different challenges will guide me in being more empathetic and considerate.”
High School Student
“I really enjoyed Tele-Hope’s session with Ralph. I was so inspired by the work he’s doing. He encouraged me to make sure I’m being genuine in my interactions with others. And a new goal of mine is to remember everyone’s name!”
University of Arizona professor
"When Ian and Ralph came to my classroom, they quickly got my students over the initial hump of awkwardness and were able to connect with my students. I saw some students who hadn't yet looked me in the eye all semester with their phones down, laptops away, and fully engaged in what we were discussing. I saw students who'd never talked to each other before sharing their stories with each other."
Adult Workshop Attendee
“I want to apply a couple of aspects from Tele-Hope’s workshop to my life and career. It is as simple as learning someone’s name. Asking others about themselves and genuinely meaning it is something I also want to implement.”
University of Wyoming Student
“It is as simple as learning someone's name; this strengthens the relationship and adds value. Asking others about themselves and genuinely meaning it is so critical and something I also want to implement. Overall, Ralph and Ian gave us a very good understanding of how precious life is, and how simple it is to say thank you, to say sorry, and to hear, help, and hang out with friends.”
