PART 3 · LESSON 29 OF 30 · 30 MINUTES

A partnership that can continue

The partners liked it and disagree on the frequency, and Ana learns to define what the team can sustain and set a review of the agreement after a period of time. Say families want this every week, every week is a lot of coffee, what we can sustain is every other week with the same team, and if the volunteers grow, then we grow with them let's review the arrangement after three months, three months of every other week, six sessions enough to know, and then, and then we sit here again with numbers instead of wishes, with coffee.
