Just For Women |
|
Take a step into a better future! Have the courage to devote a whole weekend just for you, and watch your world change as you begin to bloom from the inside out.
These workshops or “Playshops” as I like to think of them, are carefully planned and structured with experiential processes designed to create “aha!” moments of clarity. The atmosphere is of welcome and acceptance with liberal doses of belly-laughing thrown in. And you can expect to make new friends. Deep connections can be forged with other participants due to such significant shared journeys of change and growth. |

Renovating Women A Self-Esteem Development and Self-Discovery playshop series for women.
The modern woman’s guide for re-building self-esteem.
Let’s not call it low self-esteem. Let’s just call it the feeling you have when you wish you were smarter, prettier, better, younger…. The feeling you have when you’re afraid someone will see behind the capable or confident disguise you wear…. That feeling of not being good enough no matter how hard you try.
The Renovating Women series is about helping all kinds of women discover how you learned low self-esteem, and how to free yourself from those dreaded feelings. This series of four workshops alters false and damaging beliefs, inspires emotional healing, creates awareness of destructive patterns keeping you stuck, teaches new skills, and opens up the new you to your creative brilliance.
Because there’s a better way to feel than you do now, and the world deserves to see you shine. |

Designing Women
A workshop for 13-17 year old women-in-the-making, for greater confidence and skills in designing your own life, and the tools for the making of your healthy self-esteem. Break the cycle of low self-esteem and change your life starting today.
Young women are very vulnerable to the development of low self-esteem or a poor self-image. When this goes unchecked, they can develop behaviours to compensate, such as not aiming very high, trying to either stay in the background or be outrageous and defiant, can develop depression or apathy, prone to addictive behaviours, prone to be suckered by anyone aiming to “sell” popularity, settle for second (or tenth) best, and fail to pursue or achieve their real potential in life. The tricky thing about low self-esteem though, is that a young woman can deny and hide it, perhaps appearing as determined, sassy, focussed, smart or strong – until she gets in a relationship, which is where the truth of her self-esteem appears. She gives her power away in a heartbeat.
What a waste! But you can change this destiny. You don’t have to follow the patterns you’ve inherited. If you want to feel Proud instead of ashamed, Strong instead of weak, Admired instead of dismissed, Valuable instead of worthless, Beautiful instead of a freak, Calm instead of chaotic, Positive instead of despairing, Motivated instead of uncaring and apathetic, Individual instead of just another clone, Loved instead of unnoticed, Happy instead of hopeless, And Good enough just the way you are…. And if you want to know how to tame and quiet those insistent messages in your head trying to bring you down... this workshop is for you. |

Dealing With Difficult Men
A women’s weekend playshop that goes far beyond handling the men in your life.
Do you have trouble handling difficult men? Do you get annoyed with yourself for not responding the way you’d like, or fly off the handle making the situation even worse? Do you rage on the inside but do nothing on the outside? Do you end up feeling frustrated, confused, abused, or powerless?
This workshop looks at our conditioning as women, the communication patterns we’ve learned that keep us disempowered, classic difficult behaviours particularly from the males in our lives, and what real assertiveness skills look and feel like.
An hilarious and irreverent weekend complete with great skill-building, for a stronger and more confident You. |

Give up the burdens of old emotional baggage and lighten up with a Women’s Emotional Detox Day

Feeding Your Feelings
Do you tend to eat when you feel bored, lonely, tense or depressed? Do you eat to relax and soothe yourself?
Sometimes it’s hard to recognise just how much we’ve become accustomed to using certain foods and eating habits to compensate for something that’s missing in our lives. We create feelings of nurture, distraction, soothing and companionship out of food, for instant temporary relief to the feelings that bring on the craving.
This is Emotional Eating. It can destroy your good health intentions, leave you feeling useless and undisciplined and lead to a sense of failure and low self-esteem. Anyone can get stuck in the pleasure and pain of using food to manage feelings. Take the step to address another self-esteem issue - Explore your patterns around emotions and food and you can finally become Free from Emotional Eating. This One-day-workshop includes workbook. |

Is He Worth It? - How to Tell a Prince from a Frog!
Have you ever had an experience like this? You start seeing a guy and after a few dates he seems pretty good. Maybe you let yourself fall in love and start to feel like this is going somewhere, and then all of a sudden (it seems), he turns into a thoughtless, selfish, unreliable #### who lets you down.
Often, he’s displaying some of the warning signs already but we choose not to see them because we’re so busy enjoying the feeling of being liked or fancied, and we don’t want to burst that bubble. But at what cost? You CAN learn about the realities of someone’s character flaws, before they come to bite you on the ass!
Spend a day focussing on learning great methods to spot the Users, Posers and Losers, before they spot you, and take another step into empowerment. |
