Programs For Your Clientele

Full Circle

The Full Circle Model is a model and method for facilitating groups of people through a rapid, deep, and lasting transformational process in 2- 3 hours using traditional indigenous circle concepts that are combined with human, behavioral, and brain science, sacred principles, group techniques, and Power Centered Living and Leadership principles uniquely designed to foster self acceptance, equality, presence, personal ownership, conscious choice, inspired action, self awareness and self efficacy, self behavior management, social emotional intelligence, critical thinking, leadership as self authorship, group soul leadership, and deep social bonds. Circle topics range and can be uniquely crafted for your client’s recovery needs. (Circles are in-person only for deeper transformation and community building).

I Am Powerful

I AM Powerful program is for anyone experiencing trauma, addiction, violence, or fractured family dynamics. This program addresses the 5 key human dynamics including social emotional, relational and family, life and leadership skills, behavior management, and transpersonal development.

Traditional programs are focused on development. We are not. Which simply means that we are more like an un-development program. This is not a becoming, a changing, a learning, a knowing, a having. We are focused on removing all that is covering the awesomeness of who you already are. Think of it as reverse engineering. The I AM Powerful program unveils your natural state of power, and sheds any practice of control that veils that power.

The purpose of the I AM Powerful program is to provide you:

• The ability to differentiate between power and control in practice.

• A lived experience of your power; the daily belief that you ‘already are all you need to be, right where you are.”

• The tools to apply the Four Principles of Power in your practical everyday life.

Our research supports the following common outcomes of our clients:

• Recidivism that’s less than 25% depending on client demographic

• Reduction in Self-Harming, Violence, and Perpetration in over 80% of clients

• Sobriety in over 75% of clients

• Healthy Family Relationships with 99% of clients

• Increase in Self Esteem and Self Efficacy in over 75% of clients

• Increase in and Retention of Jobs, Homes, Graduation and Self Sufficiency in over 85% of clients

Courageous Communication

Courageous Communication allows individuals to express themselves honestly, openly and confidently, while being respectful of others. It involves having the courage to speak up when needed, to share ideas, opinions, and perspectives, even when it may be difficult or uncomfortable. In this program, individuals can develop the skills and strategies needed to communicate with courage and clarity in any situation, overcome communication barriers such as fear, anxiety, and lack of confidence, and build strong, meaningful connections with others. Courageous Communication is critical in building and maintaining healthy relationships, helping individuals to resolve conflicts, express empathy and compassion, and create a safe and supportive environment for all.

Programs For Your Staff

Strengths Based Leadership

A simple method for pulling out the best in any team member, resolving conflict as it arises, and turning challenging behaviors into assets for top performance, engagement, and long-term commitment.

Strengths Based Leadership is a form of
behavior management that turns difficult people,

a team member’s strengths. It shows leaders how to make deposits in relational bank accounts, create clear, safe environments that bring out the best in others, even in the worst of times, and ultimately turn around those that seem to be veering ‘off track’. It helps leaders resolve conflict, and perform quick turn arounds, when things go south with a team member reducing your risk improving performance.

I Am Powerful

Our top leaders need to make high quality decisions, effectively problem-solve,
be innovative and intuitive, navigate complexity amidst diverse interpersonal relationships, all while being confident, and adaptable, in the face of rapid change.

Power Centered Leadership is the ability to strategically lean in, engage, open up, and leverage people and environments, regardless of external factors, in order to create the consistent, high quality, and deeply palpable outcomes and experiences one desires.
It is a progressive style of leadership based on the Four Principles of Power. Power Centered Leaders leverage advanced interpersonal skills, high-level critical thinking, elevated emotional intelligence, strategic problem solving, and conscious decision making, to guide the organization, and all it touches, from brand to customer, team member, and culture.
