Shera Lyn Parpia became interested in interpersonal communication when she was at University, volunteering with an association that supported fellow students who felt lonely or depressed. When she became a mother she discovered the importance of peer support and listening.

Since then, as a student, mother, professional, and concerned citizen, she has continued to read, study, use and share ideas about how we can tell others what is in our hearts without blaming or judging ourselves or others. Shera Lyn organizes learning groups, virtually and in person in Rome, Italy where she lives.
