Welcome and Overview

Congratulations! If you enrolled in a course called “How to Be Happy Even When Life is Crappy,” it means you know that you deserve something more. It also means that you’re ready for it, even if you don’t yet know how to get there.

How this course works and what you’ll need: 

Since everyone learns differently, each module includes multiple learning tools (video, audio, writing, visualization) so you can digest and apply the lessons in the ways that work best for you. Instead of just listening to my voice for hours, I deliberately share recordings of my video- and teleconferences with live audiences. Why? Because you’re not alone. Because I want you to see the faces and hear the voices of some of the hundreds–nay, thousands–of other people who have the very same questions and desires that you do.

Change is possible. You’re not alone. You deserve to shine.

Get Ready:

OK, let’s get started…

 
Module 1:  Taking the Leap to Have the Life You Want and Deserve

 

Life is short, so why settle for less? Many dream or talk about following their passion and living a bigger, better life; far fewer take active steps to do so. This life-changing seminar will inspire you to shake off your fear and live up to your greatness.

 

Lessons you’ll learn include:
  • How to push past your fears and find the courage to take the leap toward your better life
  • Uncovering your “blind spots” that prevent you from being happy and successful
  • Balancing your dreams with your current realities
  • Common pitfalls of why you’re not reaching your goals
  • Being happier on the macro level (what you came here to do and be) and micro-level (being happier in the moment)
  • Effective, specific strategies for following your passion and purpose

Module 2:  Now What? Managing Transition without Falling into a Pit of Despair

 

Whether you can’t go back to where you were, or you don’t want to go back – either way, you’re not yet where you want to be.

While in transition, we are like hermit crabs: having kicked off our shells that are too small, now taking those vulnerable steps toward a new home that is ultimately bigger and better for us. This “Now What?” seminar will inspire you to maintain faith and focus until you fully arrive to your bigger, better life.

 

Lessons you’ll learn include:
  • Accepting and embracing change
  • Recognizing and learning from Sacred Contracts
  • Learning when to keep the faith and carry on, and when to get off a dead horse and change course
  • Knowing which of the “voices in your head” to trust
  • Key strategies and tools to successfully navigate 8 discrete stages of change, from initial shock to your deepest despair to living your better, brighter life
