eve earley, empowering change

We encourage participants to explore courses and workshops to gain the peer support it takes to adopt and integrate the tools and habits required to maintain momentum - over the course of a lifetime. And we’re trying to make it affordable. We have made the Storytelling Workshop available at no charge, it is included in our most affordable, Essential Membership level. Why consider membership? The programs we offer in our book-based learning approach are six, eight & twelve-week facilitated groups. Our All Access and Premium memberships offer new and returning clients a pay-as-you-go option. Why pay for a course I can do on my own? The foundation material - the books - are programs you can do yourself. The value we offer is our experience as facilitators of this material and the supportive, continuing presence of your peers. And #DontGoItAlone is more than just a hashtag - subsequent courses or workshops are deeply discounted and you are invited to revisit courses at no additional charge. When we invest in ourselves - we acknowledge that our money marks the energy of our commitment. When you’re ready to commit, we’re here - and we look forward to supporting you on your journey.
