Universal Career Institute
Really enjoying this so far. As a trained counsellor and a natural health consultant, I can understand how important these core experiences will be. Funny, I have been thinking recently about how to create a program that was not just information, but fun and engaging. If it is not fun, I don't want to do it (or for very long).
I am in group #2. I have a huge desire to create an online program and thought it was going to be about sharing how to get well from cancer the natural way. (as I had cancer as a child and then again in my late 40's), but more and more as I look back on who I truly am, I am an encourager especially for people to recognize that life's lemon can be turned into lemonade.
I love the words from a song "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger". So I think it is much bigger than just cancer recovery, of embracing that they have survived other things in life, so to not let cancer stop them now. I love the concept of constant wins.
I know that my biggest challenge will be to not overload, so the small chunks spoke to me. Sure glad that even though I have felt antsy of not having "Launched", or even created the program as yet…
I am now glad that I don't have to start over, so that I can do it in a manner that is fun, engaging, and inspirational. (which is the way I have always strived to create and facilitate my live workshops.) I see now that my favorite workshops that I facilitate have those components in them, and the ones I get bored with easily, do not!
My vision for myself is to have both online and live programs, where the partipants come away with a sense of "I can do this". My husband and I will live the Spring - Fall on some secluded, tranquil acreage in a log cabin, steps away from a lake that he can kayak in and I can swim in. The atmosphere will be conducive for both of us to write. The winter months will be spent facilitating live events in a warm climate, and to offer 1 or 2 times a year, the online program.
