This program is great when organizational or individual change occurs and ranges in length from a keynote to a two-day retreat. It covers the dynamics of change, how to separate feelings from facts, why we are so addicted to failure, and how to switch self-discipline from self-abusive behavior to discipling the self.

Being Trauma-Informed is just that: knowing about trauma and how it impacts people. All too often, it doesn't translate to Trauma-Responsive Living, where people put into everyday action what we know about how traumatic experiences affect people (and their descendants!). That's the stuff we really need to know! While this program (keynote to two-day retreat) equips people to say they are "trauma-informed," it also goes the next step with practical everyday tools for self, family, friends, pets, and clients. Interactive, actually fun, and deeply impacting. Evidence-informed program combines Emotional Intelligence and trauma psychology.

I've seen videos that tell us that "you can do anything if you call it self-care," and I am here to tell you it ain't so--but there is a solution! Learning how to use a simple, 7-point scale to see which area your self-care addresses jacks up the value of your self-care dramatically. The addition of the meaning-making process cements every act of self-care in a different way, helping to decrease stress, and increase resilience in simple yet powerful ways. Evidence-informed, combining proven models with common sense.
