Stories of Transformation
Hear from individuals who have transformed their lives and relationships with the help of Trench Classes United.
How To Love Who You Love exposed so many things in my life that I didn’t understand about myself or how to deal with people. I started in the Trench classes and found myself dealing with things that were broken in my past that I didn’t even know existed the things that I had tucked away.
