This 3-Day, 15-hour interactive retreat is on March 19-21.

It is an immersive, paradigm-shifting experience where you will learn dozens of tips & tricks to create group programs that are extraordinary. 

If any of these sound familiar,
I'm so glad you found this page...

"I don't want my courses to just be 'good'. I want them to be extraordinary and make me beyond proud."

“I want to create a group course, but I’m worried I won’t be able to handle resistance or difficult situations."

“It’s a crowded field.
How do I stand out in the sea of leaders?”

“I can't figure out how to weave my ideas into a an effective curriculum."

“I wish more of my clients renewed with me and sent me referrals."

“I love my 1:1 coaching work, but I’m exhausted!"

Developing group courses, workshops, and retreats that co-create powerful results bring in more referrals and income (and free up your calendar). You can absolutely learn to lead in ways that energize instead drain you.

“Help! My last online group course fell flat—people dropped like flies a few weeks in and asked for refunds."

“I have soooo many great ideas…but I don’t know which to put into my course or workshop."

There is a way to gracefully, masterfully & ethically lead group programs that support clients to make real change.

And there is also a way to craft your curriculum with much more ease & confidence!

In our 3 intensive days together, we will dive into each of these 5 Pillars so that you can take the next steps towards world-class transformational group programs. 

"I am coaching much more masterfully. I also feel so much more confident reflecting the truth & calling out resistances and fears. This results in more powerful results & being able to go much deeper with clients in a shorter amount of time." 

—Tanya Dantus

“I have a graduate degree in counseling and never encountered the depth, wisdom and sheer practical instruction that is woven into each training session with Joanna.”  

— Moira Shaughnessy

Frequently Asked Questions

I’m a seasoned and accomplished course leader. Is this retreat for me?

In short, YES! As a seasoned transformational leader, I’m sure you know the importance of constantly holding yourself to a higher standard & being on a journey of continuous learning. I share and model ADVANCED skills at Secrets to Transformational Group Programs - you will be delighted with what you learn!

This is my first time creating & leading a group course. Is this training for me?

Secrets to Transformational Group Programs is 100% suitable for new practitioners who are very smart and learn quickly, who enjoy going deep with others and are committed to doing exceptional and transformation work. 
 
If this is you, then YES!

I’m not a coach. I am a [massage therapist, yoga instructor, real estate broker, fill in the blank here]. 
Is this training for me?

YES, YES, YES!!!! If you are in the business of creating client transformations or supporting clients (or team members) to create a result, then this information and practice will serve you. 

Do I need to attend all 3 days? And is the retreat recorded?

While I HIGHLY recommend saving the time in your calendar to attend the full event (& you will WANT to; what we cover is sooo good!), I understand that life happens and you may need to miss some of the event. That's OK. Each session is filled to the brim with content and you will still receive a LOT if you can't come to each session. There will not be recordings available.

Will I walk away with my curriculum completed?

Ahhh...if only! Here's something I stand for: it takes TIME to craft a stellar curriculum. To let it marinate. To allow the various threads to weave together in brilliant ways. Anyone that tells you that you can develop an effective, layered, and deep curriculum in a few days has probably never really created or experienced the type of depth & gravitas that I teach my students to create. You will absolutely make some beautiful headway on your curriculum during our 3-days (AND be inspired to keep on going, AND learn so much about facilitation), and if you are looking to complete a curriculum, I'll be sharing about my 10-week Life Changing Programs Training.

"Joanna is a next level coach. She’s done (and continues to do) the inner work necessary to be able to hold masterful space for her clients.

I was surprised that I was able to get to my core issues so quickly and (relatively) painlessly in a short session with her.

In the three day workshop I just attended, she offered key pieces to help us get unstuck and move forward with our heart’s calling as well as demonstrating how you can use these skills with clients so that our sessions can also be next level. The whole webinar was lit up with ‘aha’ moments for me and pretty much every attendee.

I’ve seen a lot of coaches and coach trainers, and Joanna is clearly the top person I’d recommend if you want to learn coaching skills."

— Aiyana McKenzie
