LifeSkills

Calling all couples! YES ALL COUPLES. Married, dating, committed, just met, carpooling – you’re totally the right fit. No matter how long you’ve been together or your marital status you’re are guaranteed to walk away from this workshop as Relationship Ninjas, capable of fighting off the rough patches when they sneak up on you. Couples spend most of their time in one-on-one discussions putting the skills they’re learning to practice right away.

Hey, what are you doing on Friday? Don’t worry; this is NOT some couples therapy session. Bring your better half along for a DATE NIGHT where you can actually learn more about one another and connect in new ways all while having a total blast! Impossible you say? We double-dog dare you to spend an evening discovering the different ways that each of you views family, relationships, intimacy, and finances. Missing out on this may be the biggest mistake of your life. Yes. Even bigger than the one you just remembered!

Hey, what are you doing on Friday? Don’t worry; this is NOT some couples therapy session. Like the title says, this enchanted evening walks couples through the “5 Love Languages,” helping you to figure what presses your buttons, but more importantly how to score major points with your better half. Relying on tons of interaction and immediate application, couples learn what works (and what doesn’t). Plus, we’ll even get into how to make this work when you’re thousands of miles apart.

Not sure why everyone doesn’t see things your way? Clearly if they did, everything would be much better. Sadly, each of us sees the world from different points of view. This hilarious, interactive workshop identifies which “lens” you use to look at our world. More importantly, you’ll learn how others see the exact same world. No matter what role you fill (leader, follower, husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, parent, or child) you’ll walk away with a whole new perspective on just about everyone around you.

Everyone believed that the Sun revolved around the Earth, and then in 1543 Copernicus blew everyone’s mind! Just like that, most people believe that only after they’re successful will they finally be happy. Based on recent discoveries in the fields of positive psychology and neuroscience, that formula for happiness is dead wrong. In fact, it’s COMPLETELY backwards. It turns out, happiness actually fuels success, not the other way around. When we become more positive, our brain becomes more engaged, creative, motivated, energetic, healthier, resilient, and productive. It can be as easy as 20 seconds, but you’ll have to register to find out how.

Lasting relationships take work. Add the military lifestyle to that and now you’re up against another set of challenges altogether. No matter where you’re at in your current relationship, there’s no better time to make it stronger than ever. We’re talking silverback gorilla strong! While it’s always great to attend couples classes together, sometimes that just can’t happen (so individuals are always welcome, too). Whether the honeymoon hasn’t happened yet, is still ongoing, or was over years ago, the information and activities offer positive and proactive ways to build a healthy, lasting relationship.

Trying to figure out how to balance two households set to collide? Tired of playing the evil step-parent in your very own fairytale movie? Come crack the code on the common challenges facing blended families. Explore new ways in achieving family unity, all while spending some time with others that are in the same boat as you. Who knows, you may be able to steal some of their ideas and end up like the Brady Bunch – minus the bell bottoms.

If motivation is what gets you started, HABITS are what keep you going. Every day military families face hurdles that would force Olympians to throw in the towel. Setting up a solid foundation and some reliable habits will take you from “we can’t” to “we can” and before you know it, you’ll be saying WE DID! Getting there takes teamwork, talent, desire, vision, and focus from the entire family. Of course, a few proven principles wouldn’t hurt either!

Have you ever had a conversation go downhill fast when you heard the words, “What’s that supposed to mean?” Gender, age, experiences, and style can all impact how we communicate with the people around us. Sometimes it isn’t even what you say; it’s how you say it. There are some fundamental mistakes that most of us make without even realizing it, but there’s hope. “Say What?!?” is your chance to take the first step toward improving every personal and professional relationship you have.

Everyone has a best friend. Well, how did they get to be your best friend? You took the time to get to know each other. You found out that you shared common interests and points of view. You built trust and reliability over time. You remained loyal to each other when the going got tough. You probably provided alibis to throw off the cops!

What if you took the time to build the same relationship with the person that KNOCKS YOUR SOCKS OFF?!? It’s impossible to really know someone without investing the time in it, and marrying someone you hardly know is like joining the Marine Corps on an OPEN CONTRACT – who knows where you’ll end up! This workshop allows participants to eliminate the JERK(ETTE) before they have the keys to your heart… and base housing.

Discover how to speak your child’s love language in a way that he or she understands. In this workshop participants will discover their child’s love language, assist children in successful learning, use the love languages to correct and discipline more effectively and build a foundation of unconditional love for the child.

Participants in our various productivity work sessions establish new mindsets about where to spend their time-driven by their most important priorities, as well as skillsets and toolsets that enable them to filter out distractions, achieve their highest priorities with excellence, and feel successful about what they have accomplished. Dramatically increase individuals’ focus on their most important goals, that are often buried by less important urgencies and distractions. Develop consistent processes and important people skills among their “unofficial” project managers. Enhance knowledge-worker abilities to increase productivity and communicate more effectively.

For the first time in history, there are four distinct generations in the workforce: Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Gen Xers, and Millennials…all with their own perspectives, styles, and expectations.

In this workshop, participants will be able to:

• Understand and leverage the differences among generations.
• Resolve the Sticking Points that inevitably occur among generations’ differing perspectives, styles, and expectations.
• Motivate team members to volunteer their greatest contribution by engaging the whole person and giving space for generational differences to exist.

Are you fully prepared for the Zombie Plague? Are you worried about hackers running off with your entire Boy Band MP3 collection? Have you even considered the impact of rogue unicorns? Sure the Mayans were wrong about 2012, but that doesn’t mean you’re off the hook! No matter what the threat, families that take the time to prepare are able to face any separation (long or short) with a greater sense of confidence and security. Whether it’s keeping your home safe, or being smart about what you share on social media sites, this workshop covers it all.

“I’m sorry” – “Lo siento” – “Je suis désolé” – “ごめんなさい” – “Es tut mir leid”

Class dismissed – wait – there’s WAY more to it than that! In fact, this workshop has nothing to do with speaking other languages. The “5 Languages of Apology” delves into the separate aspects of an apology and helps to identify which one will get you out of hot water the fastest when it really counts (and for all the other times that you just drop the ball). More importantly, you may figure out that your better half really did mean it when they said they were sorry before, they just weren’t speaking your language.
