When you’ve created a Life Changing Course that you love… You literally become a different person.
You gain confidence. You can stand powerfully in the knowing that your work rocks.
It has gravitas. And it’s changing people’s lives on a deep level.
This is the mark of a true transformational teacher.
Over the course of our 10+ Get-It-Done-As You-Learn weeks together...
You will learn how to create the most transformational exercises possible and craft a full curriculum based on your unique leadership...as well as learn to facilitate with true gravitas...with tons of support & feedback from me all along the way!
Here's what you’ll receive:
Unit one
Get Clear on Your Unique Thought Leadership & Craft a Highly Effective Curriculum
We’ll unpack the core elements of your thought leadership and create the framework that allows your work to stand out as UNIQUE & SPECIAL, and your students to experience learning through arcs, pacing, crescendos and culmination. This will create the core teachings and content flow of your curriculum.
You will:
- Uncover your unique Thought Leadership so that your work stands out (& so that you don’t fall into the trap of teaching content that is “in the ballpark” but not totally aligned)
- Understand how to take your complex content and simplify it in a way that retains its depth but doesn’t confuse
- Learn how to create teaching topics that go beyond sounding nice on paper but truly change your clients’ lives
- Weave the entire experience of your curriculum into a cohesive whole that packs breakthrough after breakthrough after breakthrough for your participants
-
Learn the difference between a linear Hero's journey and a cyclical Hero's journey and how to incorporate both into your curriculum
Unit TWO
Create Experiential & Somatic Exercises that Go Deeper for Massive Transformations
Most of the content out there reaches people only on the conscious intellectual plane, where it is easily discarded by the more powerful forces at play… the heart, the body, the subconscious, and the emotions.
When your curriculum is set up to reach ONLY one level of processing and learning, it doesn’t do the job of transforming your clients on ALL levels of processing and learning.
You will learn to:
When your curriculum is set up to reach ONLY one level of processing and learning, it doesn’t do the job of transforming your clients on ALL levels of processing and learning.
- Craft cognitive, somatic & experiential exercises that are simple, yet massively transformative
-
Set up your somatic & experiential exercises for true effectiveness (there are specific elements you MUST include in the set up and ending of ANY deep exercises so that participants get what they need).
-
Replicate the power of your intimate 1:1 work into your group and coursework (without having to "coach" each person in the room!)
- Catalyze breakthroughs via your content and your content delivery
-
Activate all 4 Levels of Learning and Processing - the Mental Level, the Emotional Level, the Spirit Level and the Body Level (these make all the difference for breakthroughs and life long learning)
- Infuse your curriculum with exercises and practices to reach students with different learning styles
Unit THREE
Become a Master Group Facilitator:
Transformational, Trauma-Informed & Ethical Group Containers
Having masterful facilitation skills is KEY to creating any kind of group & transformational experience that is effective, empowering and safe. How you set up & hold the space will determine if your participants will get bored or won’t go as deep as they could, or get upset at you or others in the group.
It’s important that the way you lead engages and captivates your students from beginning to end, and that you do so in a trauma-informed way.
You will:
-
Create exercises & rituals to re-activate and captivate your audiences from the get-go
- Learn how to get participants excited and engaged with every class
-
Master creating depth & safety in person or online
- Learn to create a safe and sacred container, even before people step into the room, so that your group feels like a tight community that is ready to be open and do deep work.
- Understand The Master Formula for Kicking Off Courses, Retreats & Workshops – why the first 45 minutes of ANY program are the MOST important for engagement, safety and vulnerability
-
Learn trauma-informed facilitation skills so that your group work is productive and ethical
Unit four
Something most course creators & leaders don’t know when they start: Your participants will at some point naturally go into Resistance, not only to their goals…but to YOU.
Unfortunately, I’ve seen this happen to facilitators over and over again. You’ve created a beautiful ritual or retreat, your clients are engaged and learning, and then all of a sudden one participant takes the group hostage. This participant has no boundaries or awareness of other people’s boundaries so she speaks for way too long, or demands more and more of your attention. She may have an inappropriate outburst or say something very offensive to someone else in the group. When this happens, it’s extremely difficult to recover without getting frustrated and entering a power struggle. We want to make sure you know how to handle this.
You will learn:
-
How to do deep work without activating un-moveable resistance.
-
How to get buy in from your participants and bypass eye rolling or resistance or confusion (even when you're doing spiritual or "woo" work!)
- How to handle participants who talk-endlessly or over-share, and do it in ways that feel empowering for them and the entire group.
-
Develop exercises to transform resistance to your content and teaching so that your students are fully open and ready to receive (if you are truly teaching your Thought Leadership, it is cutting edge, and there will be resistance to work through)
-
What to do when a participant can't stop crying or gets physically overwhelmed by a breakthrough.
- How to Adress the Major Archetypes of Resistance & Disruption: The Judge, The Know-It-All, The Sarcastic One, The Confused One, The Angry One, The Jester, The Victim, The Flake.
Unit Five
Create Communities that Foster Safety, Vulnerability, and a feeling of Belonging for your participants (that they’ll never want to leave)
Any group experience isn’t just about the leader or guide who is facilitating. It’s about everyone in the room. You need to have a solid step-by-step process for creating a sense of community that will help everyone feel welcomed, seen, and connected.When you do, you’ll create one that is engaging and transformational – where clients participate, open up, learn from you and learn from each other.
You will learn:
- How to bring a circle or community together immediately, create love, respect, and connection in the room (even when everyone just met for the first time 5 minutes before).
- People always tell me I attract the most amazing people in the world (which I do), but I also facilitate to bring out the best in every person present. I’ll teach you how to do this too.
- How to create more engagement, more sharing, and more vulnerability.
- How to craft a community that is so tight, that part of the value of your offering is the power of the community (& they want to keep on coming back to be with each other!)
- How to facilitate shares, check-ins and Q/As so that no one person dominates the group, speak for too long, or has the group feeling like what is being shared is irrelevant
-
Best practices for using the "chat" as a learning and community tool
-
How to shape and organize breakout rooms and partner exercises so that deep connection and learning take place
Unit six
-
How to find your unique facilitation Style and Voice (this is not about you "leading" like me or anyone else out there...this is about you tapping into your own special sauce and leading like YOU!).
-
How to activate your deeper leadership skills (so that you know you are being effective, ethical, and trauma-informed every step of the way!)
-
How to develop your confidence so that you're not held back by "I'm a fraud" or "I'm not good enough" or "I can't handle the energy of the group" and more.
- How to overcome fears or reservations around your leadership or facilitation skills so that you are FREE to take risks, be experimental, lead big and small groups effortlessly and don’t stress so much about it.
- How to respond to tough & doozy questions from group members (because this will definitely come up!)
-
How to stay in your leadership when problems arise and you need to think & act quick
Unit seven
Logistical Systems, Pricing, Course Components & Special Frills that Take Your Program from Amazing to Over-The-Top
This Unit contains all of the connective tissue skills, components, materials and systems that help your Life Changing Program run smoothly and powerfully. These are also the pieces that allow you to conserve your energy, even if you are leading 100s of people at a time.
You will learn:
- Learn the philosophical differences between workshops, masterminds, retreats, group coaching, memberships and home study courses...and how to leverage the power & format of each for potent client results
-
Understand the many different educational & transformational formats and components (including Q/A calls, mastermind calls, Get It Done calls, Cohort calls, etc) you can incorporate into your programming, how to determin which ones to use, and how to use each with ultimate effectiveness
- How to price your program in a way that is alignment with who you are and where you would like your business to go
- How to create and leverage Bonuses in your program...so that your course becomes even more valuable and sells more easily
- The most effective tracking and accountability structures you can incorporate into your courses and programming and what you need to do to create programs that truly help participants yield results
- The best and most effective ways to craft and use worksheets and resource sheets...so that you stop wasting time on busy work and really focus on the materials that will move your participants forward
- Exactly, step by step, what to do at the end of a program so participants decide to re-enroll with you

“Unlike other programs and courses I had taken previously, Joanna's method allowed for total creative freedom within a structure that helped me reach my end goal of creating something I was passionate to share....
And, the community itself was I N C R E D I B L E ! I really don’t say that lightly. It was absolutely amazing! The amount of support we all had from each other was worth the price of admission alone. Such an amazing group of people eager to grow, share, support and soar together!
I LOVED LOVED LOVED it, from start to finish. It absolutely blew me away and definitely left me wanting more of Joanna and the incredible communities she creates."

Frequently Asked Questions
I am a seasoned facilitator, and have already existing programs & curriculum. Will this training help me?
Yes! If you are already clear on your thought leadership and have created programs that work well, Life Changing Courses will help you move those programs & your facilitation skills into world-class territory. You will learn how to refine your content, exercises & facilitation skills so that they are even more razor sharp and create more meaningful breakthroughs & results with clients.
I have never led a group program before. Is this training for me?
Also, yes! Life Changing Courses is suited for seasoned leaders and new leaders. If you've never created curriculum before, you will learn step by step how to mine and organize your ideas and then craft them into a powerful program that has your participants singing your praises.
Will the LIVE training calls be recorded?
Yes. All live calls will be recorded and ready for you in your member center within 24 hours. So even if you can't make calls live, you will receive what you need to create a curriculum that is deep, powerful, and unique to you. You can also ask me questions in our Facebook group at any time!
I sometimes get lost in online courses. What do you have in place to help with this?
I hear you. It's too easy to get lost in online courses when you're not supported. We have a number of opportunities in place so that you can get ALL of your needs met and stay on track and inspired through the course. This includes: ample opportunity to ask me questions directly either during our live calls or in our Facebook group, Get-It-Done sessions where you have a fun & motivating container to work on your curriculum in real time, Templates that guide & inspire you step by step so you don't spin your wheels, and lots of examples from me along the way to feed your creativity. All of my programs are high-touch and very personalized and me and my team are committed to supporting you every step of the way!
When does the program meet? Do I have to attend live?
The program begins April 2025.
Our training calls are on generally Mondays at 2p eastern (with a couple of exceptions) and our Get It Done calls are on Fridays at 12pm eastern (with a couple of exceptions).
Of course we recommend you try to make as many of the trainings as you can live. But that being said, you will be provided a recording of each training session, and some people will choose to watch them in their own time. We will have a Facebook group where you can ask ANY questions you want, and I will always respond within a day or two!
How much time will I need to devote each week?
In addition to training class time each week (usually 90 to 120 minutes), I recommend you put aside an additional 60-90 minutes each week in order to take all you're learning in Life Changing Courses to craft your unique curriculum & transformational curriculum exercises.
If you know that having a container for brainstorming & accountability will help you stay on track, you can spend 60-90 minutes with us nearly each week of the training at a Get It Done session!
It's amazing that this program includes personalized feedback. How does that work?
“I'm walking away having my freshly designed curriculum that takes my students on a powerful journey of healing and transformation, and an entire sales page page that I feel really good about...During Life Changing Courses, I also facilitated an online retreat and used many of the tools and teachings from LCC, and it was one of my best ever.
I don't have enough words to speak to how powerful Life Changing Courses was.
Not only this, but after years of facilitating groups, I feel I have a new, powerful and embodied way of approaching facilitation, based on the deep (always deep with Joanna) work we did in the course.
— Kelly Lubeck
Facilitation matters. Integrity matters. Curriculum matters.
And our clients’ results… Matter the most.
I can say (because it’s true) that my events and programs always deliver.
And I can also say that my clients buy from me over and over and over again. And refer everyone they know. Because my programs are the best of the best.
Because my content is unique and doesn't copy-cat anyone else’s.
Because the transformation I provide is trauma-informed & life-altering for those who choose the journey.
If I can do this, so can you. And so, this is my invitation for you.
Our work here together is about a commitment to greatness, confidence, integrity and effectiveness.
Our work is about you making a massive impact on your audiences as you claim your rightful role as a Thought Leader.
At the end of our time together, you will have a Life Changing Course that over-delivers and meets your clients’ needs like never before...
Curriculum & Embodied Group Facilitation Skills that will serve for years to come.
That will provide a framework for everything that you do from this point forward. You will know and understand exactly how to ease-fully and effectively create new curricula over and over and over again, and how to masterfully facilitate any group you lead.
No more inventing of the wheel.
No more worrying that your content isn’t powerful enough.
No more waiting till the last minute to create your curriculum because it feels so daunting.
No more being mistaken as a beginner or as your own coach’s copycat.
No more knowing in your heart that you’re not delivering the best results possible.

"I feel so much more confident now to design my curriculum and have clear strategies and a structured system to facilitate.
I cannot believe how much was packed in in the LCC and how much we learned about marketing, curriculum writing, hero journey, effective exercises and so much more. I feel so much more confident now to design my curriculum and have clear strategies and a structured system to facilitate. I have already seen a shift in the well-being program I teach and facilitate for a law firm - it just flows better and I feel my facilitation is so much more impactful. Since I started taking courses with Joanna, LCC being the most recent one, I have become not only a better facilitator and coach but a better human. Do the course, thank me later!"
— Annelise Pesa
"I have been relieved of the frustration, self-doubt, and self-sabotage that often plagued my process.
I needed to produce a curriculum that would prepare and usher participants into deep sacred and spiritual spaces for ritual and ceremony. Up until curriculum lab what was needed had evaded me. However, because Joanna is so knowledgeable and skilled, she could hear and feel what was in my way. Joanna supported the necessary leap for my confidence to grow and for me to walk into the power of my creativity.
Everything in the curriculum lab worked for me. I was able to bring my visions into sharp focus. I was able to finally find the right flow for my curriculum. I was inspired to reach for my ideas that were outside of the box and claim them. I was able to validate my unique ideas and incorporate them with confidence, confirming that this is what was needed for the community I serve. But most importantly I was able to discover and embody the "way that I work" and leverage this information. I have been relieved of the frustration, self-doubt, and self-sabotage that often plagued my process. As well as the fear and fatigue I felt when attempting to develop and bring forward my ideas. Curriculum lab is of exceptional value as once I was able to complete my first curriculum in the lab, everything about creating process and curriculum has become exciting, inspired, and deeply satisfying. What used to feel like a burden has become a deep honouring of what is gestating and waiting to be born. "
— Eldra Crow
