A Fresh Start in Full Bloom

This time of year often symbolizes growth and renewal, but for Yuliana, it brought both. When she joined Focus 360 in early May, she was still carrying the weight of a recently failed catering business and uncertainty about what came next.

But something shifted on the very first day. The facilitators’ positivity and the presentation on the “10 Keys to Success” opened her eyes to new possibilities. Encouraged by their energy and insight, Yuliana felt inspired, ready to not only find a job but also to rebuild and reignite her dream.

By Day Two, Yuliana returned with an uplifted spirit. She admitted she had always felt intimidated by online job applications, but the facilitator’s step-by-step guidance made it feel manageable. The clear instructions and patience she received gave her the support she’d been missing.
