courage, connection and a sabbatical

Courage

I'm thrilled to be partnering again with global activist Jen Lemen, CEO of Hopeful World Publishing, to offer the Ordinary Courage eCourse: Lessons in Love, Shame and Worthiness. 

We had such a powerful experience in our spring class that we're offering a summer course. Join us as we explore how shame operates in our lives and how we cultivate shame resilience so that we can fully engage with the world from a place of worthiness; a place where we know that we are enough and that we are worthy of love and belonging.

The course starts on Monday, 7/11/11, and ends on 8/19/11. There will be weekly reading assignments from I Thought It Was Just Me (but it isn't)  and "watching" assignments from The Hustle for Worthiness DVD.  There will also be weekly audio conversations, creativity activities, and journal exercises. You are welcome to stay on the 6-week schedule or make your way through the material at your own pace. There are no "real time" activities. 

For more information and to register, check out the Hopeful World website. See you in class! 

Connection

You've asked and we're answering! We're offering a 3-day training for professionals who want to facilitate the Connections Curriculum with clients. 

The Connections Curriculum (Hazelden) draws on empirically based strategies to help clients recognize shame as a universal experience and embrace authenticity, worthiness, and courage as foundations for shame resilience and Wholehearted Living. 

For more information on registration and CEUs/CCEUs for LPCs, LCSWs, LMSWs, LCDCs, LMFTs and Coaching Professionals, click here.  Seating is limited.

 

Sabbatical

I'm taking a blogging sabbatical for the month of July. I'm going to spend the month writing, playing, teaching, and redesigning the blog! I'll be back online the first week of August - right in time for Blogher 2011 in San Diego! It's my first Blogher conference and I can't wait. I'm sitting on a panel with Shauna James Ahern, Mr. Lady, and Gretchen Rubin. Hope to see you there! 

Have a wonderful July!
