Life Changing Courses

build & lead sought after programs that create glowing fans

A 13-week experience to build a transformational world-class group course, workshop or retreat that will WOW your participants, generate referrals & repeat business, and make you proud. 

Click Here to Listen to the Preview Masterclass:

If you are a seasoned leader, but not taking your groups as deep or transformative as you'd like...

...this training will teach you exactly how to yield bigger breakthroughs and deeper transformation that your clients and audiences rave about.

If you are a new course creator who is scared because you don't know how to create curriculum or lead groups...

...this training will teach you exactly how to create & lead stellar group programs with the mastery of an expert; your confidence will soar and your participants will be in gratitude for the work you do together.

If you haven't yet been able to figure out how to lead programs that have participants buying from you over & over...

...this training will teach you exactly how to create experiences for groups that keep them engaged, always moving towards results, and wanting to buy from you again & again.

Too many not-so-great courses have given the Transformational Industry a bad reputation. Those courses fail to deliver on their marketing promises and often leave participants feeling regretful that they signed up in the first place.

You don't want to create a course that doesn't actually help participants move towards their goals. And you don't want to lead a course that leaves participants feeling uninspired or upset.

With not-so-great courses, even if your participants feel excited during class time or watching trainings, they're not likely to fully follow through with your content for true long lasting results (& many may simply give up on the course or ask for a refund before it ends!).

With not-so-great courses, your content sounds & feels like everyone else’s. 
You could be mistaken for any one of the thousands of coaches or teachers in the industry.

With not-so-great courses, the energy of the group is overwhelming, the facilitator doesn't know how to handle resistance, and there is a feeling of confusion in the group.

  • You are done with feeling that your content sounds like everyone else's.
  • ​​You are done with knowing your courses don’t go nearly as deep or transformational as they could.
  • ​You are done with wishing your group participants could experience the magic & depth your 1:1 private clients receive.
  • You are done with always having to enroll new clients because old clients don’t continue with you.
  • You are done with not having the confidence that you can handle the energy of a large group
  • ​You are done with worrying you won't be able to safely go deep with a group
  • You are done with worrying you won't know how to navigate resistance and other big emotions that can come up for participants
  • You are done with feeling exhausted and drained when you lead groups
  • You are done with struggling to organize all of your ideas, not knowing how to create cohesiveness from it all.

Or maybe you’re done with simply dreaming that one day you’ll teach a course,
but keep... not creating or completing the content... 


Because it feels so daunting, overwhelming and confusing.

When you learn exactly how to create outstanding curriculum & lead your groups to profound transformation, you are poised to change more lives...while also generating more referrals and repeat business!

The Life Changing Courses training is a comprehensive journey for coaches, therapists, trainers and mentors who want to grow their business by going deep in safe & sacred ways, and being WAY more effective in your group work.

  • So that you feel more satisfied in your work.
  • So that you know you are doing your best work & making greater impact.
  • So that you don't waste so much time & energy correcting what didn't go well in your groups.
  • ​So that even with all the zoom fatigue out there, YOUR program is the program that participants show up for
  • So that you know you are being an ethical leader
  • ​So that you create more repeat clients and referrals because folks are in love with the work you did together.

Life-Changing Courses is about creating Glowing Fans through your extraordinary workshops, retreats, events and programs. A Glowing Fan is a client who has been so deeply impacted by your programming that their life is forever changed. They are in awe of the work you’ve done together or the course you’ve delivered, and they tell everyone they know about it.

Life-Changing Courses is about becoming the thought leader and dynamic teacher that you are ready to become. To co-create massive transformation with those you serve. To facilitate and lead safely, sacredly and with integrity. To stand among the best of the best. To be unforgettable.

Life Changing Courses can help you to:

  •  Develop your authentic body of work and articulate your unique thought leadership (what you're really meant to teach!)
  • Teach in ways that the learning & growth actually stick permanently instead of falling away as soon as your participants leave the room or session
  • Feel confident in your ideas, your facilitation, and in standing up in front of any room (virtual or in person!) to coach, teach and lead
  • Immediately stand out from the crowd. Your differentiation? Mastery, excellence and exquisite transformational skills
  • ​​Lead in ways that energize you
  • Demystify curriculum & content creation, stop running in circles, and cut your prep time
  • ​Make your programming way more interactive, experiential, and dynamic
  • ​Craft somatic exercises that deeply impact the hearts and souls of your participants
  • ​Go deep while also being trauma-informed
  • ​Know how to help your audiences feel connected, safe and vulnerable instead of disconnected, triggered or disengaged
  • ​Feel confident that you can navigate any resistance, block or emotion that comes up in the group
  • ​Lead a roomful of participants who are gushing with love & empowerment from the experience
  • ​​Master the art of creating the kinds of shifts that have people cry...in all good ways
  • ​Enjoy a business that is so much easier to market because of Glowing Fans… More referrals. More repeat customers…your outstanding reputation will precede you

A Life Changing Course has the power to motivate your audience to transformation & results that leave them amazed and so grateful...

...and also has them remember you and your leadership for years to come.

What you will learn in Life-Changing Courses is absolutely necessary to be ETHICAL and effective on every level of learning and processing: mind, body, heart and soul.

It helps you stand out as a magic maker from the sea of teachers that are selling courses.

And it highlights you as being on the cutting edge, and your work as unique and noteworthy.  

So that you are seen as experienced, as wise, as knowledgeable and as someone who has the ability to create transformational experiences for those you serve.

 This is an invitation to leap into your next evolution as a leader & beloved teacher who activates deep transformation with clients.

For you, for your business growth, and for those you serve.   

You are ready...

For your soul-connected work to impact more people. 

To leverage your time by offering group programs that change people's lives.

To really know that your  courses, programs and retreats are the BEST in your industry.

To create Glowing Fans who rave about you & the work you do together.

"Life Changing Courses (LCC) provided me with an opportunity to activate what was inside me waiting to come out! The course supported me every step of the way to create my Signature Course curriculum. I had everything I needed including wisdom from Joanna's experience, group support, exquisite guidance to clear shadows that were in my way, written templates, replays of classes and wonderful bonuses that honestly provided everything I needed to be successful. My course is launching soon and before I've even opened it up, I have clients waiting to sign up! LCC is a win/win/win all around! Thank you Joanna!"

"I loved this course in so many ways. It brought together a wonderful group of folks committed to bringing their work to the world, guided by Joanna, a highly skilled and experienced leader in personal transformation and course creation. With Joanna's guidance and the container of support that she created I was able to create a 3 month group course and coaching curriculum that will allow my thought leadership to shine. I also wrote my sales page copy with Joanna's guidance and now I'm ready to put my course out there! Thanks so much Joanna!!"

The thing that allows you to create all this?

Curriculum & Facilitation
that gets results.

Not just any curriculum that you haphazardly put together or hope will be effective. 

And not just any group facilitation that  simply gets you through your curriculum.

I’m talking about using your curriculum to express the culmination of your all of your experience, wisdom, teaching and creative expression that has brought you to this moment.

And I'm talking about Group Facilitation that is so masterful that each and every participant feels deeply held by you and the container.

Curriculum & Leadership with true substance.

Knowing how to craft your content so it doesn’t fall flat or leave people confused or stuck…  
Knowing how to NOT stay surface level, but go really deep with your participants…  
Knowing how to craft an outline that takes your clients on a sacred journey to real and lasting transformation…
Developing somatic exercises that truly CHANGE your participants on a cellular level... 

And holding deep and safe and sacred space for your participants that is penetrating & healing.

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.

Marketing becomes easier. Sales become easier. And delivering outstanding results for your clients happens over & over & over again. 

Referrals to you become more routine and clients are more likely re-sign over and over again. Having excellent curriculum is the core foundational element of claiming your space as a thought leader, and of building your reputation as a teacher who provides the highest quality service.

And Life Changing Courses is going to support you to do just that.

This is not your run-of-the-mill "Create Your Course" course.

This is not about one-size-fits all templates, or cookie cutter formats, or  creating your program in a day (yes, excellent curriculum does take more time than that!).

More of the same is not what's required, especially when it comes to transformational content and curriculum.

This is about creating your work as if it were ART. This is an exercise in creativity to give a unique voice and experience to your work, so that it leaves a mark on every soul it touches.  

That’s how we roll around here. We go deep. Or we don’t go.

"’ve worked with MANY of the “top coaches” in the industry and none have compared to Joanna...When you work with Joanna you get access to ALL of her and her magic—a magic that is unlike any other and that you simply have to experience in order to comprehend its capacity."

— Lexi D'Angelo
"I am forever grateful for Joanna's wisdom and her coaching mastery. She's definitely the best of the best!"

— Christine Dyan, www.ChristineDyan.com
"Joanna's Life Changing Courses is by far the BEST transformational group program I've ever participated in - and I've enrolled in dozens over the past 6 years! My facilitation skills and my confidence in how I show up as a leader have improved beyond what I ever thought possible. It was the best investment of time and money I've ever made in my professional career."

— Margalit Grunberger, margalitmethod.com

Over the course of our 13 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...and then ACTUALLY CREATE YOUR CURRICULUM 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

When your curriculum lacks intention and flow, your students can’t connect to the work. They end up feeling overwhelmed and dissatisfied. They may have a ‘nice’ experience. But we want to create a transformative experience.  

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

Clients are done with content that doesn’t go deep. They’re sick of the “Step-by-Step” methods to ANYTHING. They’ve figured out that “Step-by-Step” doesn’t really yield results if it’s not paired with real inner work.  

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. It lacks lasting power. It fleetingly speaks to the mind without fully creating new patterns in the entire participant….and new patterns are what create the results your clients desperately long for.  

One-dimensional curriculum is good. Multi-dimensional curriculum is masterful and memorable. And in this unit you’ll create exercises to make your program stand out and create client results in Technicolor. We will cover how to create masterful group exercises that gives power back to your participants, leaving them to discover their own insights, breakthroughs and self-awareness.  

You will learn to:  

  • 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. 

We’ll build into your Life Changing Course the facilitation and container skills that keep your students happy, engaged and connected to the work to completion.

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

Learn how to Mitigate and Navigate Client Resistance in Groups 

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)

If you are leading a workshop, ritual, or any other transformational experience that includes a group of people, creating a strong sense of community and belonging is critical. Using your container to correct misaligned family dynamics is also key. Instead of having a “flat” workshop, you’ll create one that is engaging and transformational – where clients participate, open up, learn from you and learn from each other. 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.

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

Claiming Your Place as a Transformational Leader & Facilitator 


Being a truly transformative leader & facilitator isn’t just about having the best facilitation skills. You can have the best skills in the world, but if you haven’t fully stepped into the Archetype of the Transformational Leader, you won’t be as effective or feel at peace.


You will learn:  

  • ​ ​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

I would be honored to teach you, step-by-step, all I've learned on how to create the most transformational & effective courses in the industry.

I’ve been coaching, facilitating workshops and retreats, and teaching others to do so for the better part of 20 years. I’ve gathered women into circle in the woods, and I’ve stood at the front of the conference room for corporate retreats. 

I am a masterful facilitator and a creator of rituals that allow for deep transformation.

I teach course creation and experience creation in a way that no one else teaches it. And to results that are extraordinary for the industry.

And much of the success that I’ve enjoyed myself and witnessed in those who I am blessed to serve is because here…

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. 

“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....

I was thrilled to have been able to partake in the Curriculum Lab. It was exactly what I needed. 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. I absolutely love the way she approaches things, and look forward to working with her again in the future. 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."

— Lindsay Davis , Health & Clarity Coach, onewholesoul.com

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. 

We start November 6, 2023!

"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, annelisepesa.com

"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. "

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 some calls live, you will be receive all the content you need to create a curriculum that is deep, powerful, and unique to you. We will also be providing transcripts of the calls. And...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 on November 6th, 2023.

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). Our Bonus Online Marketing Retreat is December 19-21, and our 3-day Going Deeper Online Retreat is January 12-14.

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 am so excited that I get to review your curriculum and give you focused feedback and places to tweak. This is one of my favorite features of the program, and the value is through the rood. At any points throughout our 13 weeks together, you can share your work with me and the group (via Facebook or email if you don't use FB). I will read through your work and give you overarching notes on what to shift, what to tighten up, and where to go deeper. This is an extraordinary opportunity to receive direct suggestions from me on your curriculum.

Meet Your Mentor & Guide

Joanna Lindenbaum

I’m Joanna Lindenbaum and I’ve facilitated hundreds of Rituals, Group Programs and Transformational Experiences for individuals and groups for over 20 years. I’ve discovered that there are certain skills and techniques Transformational Practitioners must master to successfully create REAL shifts, healing and openings for participants.  

Without these tools, things can go very, very wrong. Your workshops, programs rituals & 1:1 work can fall flat, or you will complete it feeling exhausted and spent.  However, when you know how to mine your thought leadership, and how to create exercises that impact deeply, everything can change: your programs delight your clients and they end up doing the best marketing for you - singing your praises wherever they go.

That’s why I’ve created the Life Changing Courses and the Sacred Depths Transformational Practitioner Training. Both programs help you create amazing experiences and deep transformations for your attendees - in trauma-informed and high integrity ways - leaving them raving about the power of your work.
