FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The workshops are being offered free for a limited time and space is limited to 12 families. A family is defined as one or more teens with one or more parents/guardians/mentors.

Each of the three workshops is two hours. There will be "practice time" and check-in calls in between each workshop.

The workshops are delivered online via Zoom.

Given the limited size of the workshops and the nature of the conversation (ie what’s important to you), you can expect a high level of personal attention. Specifically, you can expect to have your concerns, and what you are dealing with, addressed during the workshop discussions. You are welcome to discuss anything specific with anyone on our team, who will point you to the right person to address your situation.

In this Workshop Series, teens AND parents work TOGETHER to make discoveries. This happens through inquiries and interactions that allow them to see each other’s world in a new way. This produces results that can have a significant impact in their daily communication.

The impact lasts as long as you are willing to engage in examining the foundations discovered in the workshop. Once you have uncovered what is really important to you, you have a natural access to creating and maintaining new conversations and new relationships...forever. It is important to practice creating and using these new openings.

No. The workshop design requires interaction between both teens and parents to fulfill on the intended outcome.

The workshops are not designed to directly intervene in the behavior of participants. However, the new perspectives discovered in the sessions will likely produce new outcomes, including the realization that certain behaviors are no longer fitting or desirable in the new world you are creating.

The three workshops are designed to build upon each other, complementing and working together. In order for the series to be fully effective and deliver on your intended outcome, we recommend you attend all three workshops, in the order presented. See the Workshop Description on the home page for additional information.

The intended outcome of the workshop series is your discovery and your creation. If you find contradictions, this can be good news because it is new and worth the intellectual effort to resolve for oneself. We recommend you have a conversation with the Workshop Facilitator if this situation comes up – it will be a welcome contribution to the discussion.
