This will not be your typical sit in a circle and talk style support group. We will meet on Zoom twice a month for a 1.5 hour group meeting which will consist of a presentation and discussion.
This will be a closed group, meaning no one will join at random and the members within the group remain the same throughout the entire 8 months. It is expected that members will participate in the majority of group meetings online and the two in person. This is a commitment to yourself and the group. Every member brings value to the transformative experience. The group work is what makes it so powerful.
You will be assigned an accountability partner every month to connect with on an ongoing basis for practice of skills, communication, extra support, and check ins. There will be a private platform for communication among all group members and Celeste that is accessible and reachable daily to share thoughts, experiences, receive feedback, or post completed work or how implementation of topics discussed in the group went.
At the 3 and 7 month mark, an in person workshop/retreat will be held over a weekend in a beautiful setting. Once near Phoenix, Arizona and once in a location most central to the majority of group members. Dates and times of all group calls and meetups will be provided in month 1 to support advanced planning and scheduling.
At the beginning, middle, and end of the group various check-ins will be done to assess for individual and group progress according to goals and objectives. This will support the gauging and construction of workshops, materials, pace, and development of individual and group feedback and guidance.
