We are now offering private classes of Taming the Bear for groups of friends, co-workers, families, etc. who want to do this work within comfort of their own community. We recognize that this is vulnerable work and that some people prefer to engage in the work in a group of people they know and trust, while others find comfort in the anonymity of a group of strangers. Well now you can choose what works best for you. If you want to read more about the curriculum of the class, go here. Otherwise, read on to hear more about how the class works as a private class.

 

 

How it Works:

  • You put together a group of 6-10 friends, family members, co-workers, teammates, fellow wombat enthusiasts, whatever group of people you want.
  • Your group will have access to:
    • All the normal course materials
    • Private group coaching calls
    • A private community forum so you can all support each other through the class

Why it Works:

  • Increased Accountability: When you know all your classmates there is an added layer of accountability to show up to the work for yourself and as a part of the group.
  • Deeper Work: When you already know each other and share your stories with each other, it is easier to access the required vulnerability during the class.
  • Long Term Support: You will be building a shared vocabulary for personal growth with your community, which means that you will be able to support each other in your practice of the Seven Tools long after the class has ended. The Tools will become a part of how you communicate as a community
  • Healing Community: You will be healing in your community but also healing your community. One student of a private class noted that because her friend group has all taken the class now, she notices how much healthier they have become as a community; how much better they are able to support each other and how much deeper and more fulfilling the relationships are now.
  • Healthier Workplace: The same holds true when co-workers take the class together. They build the skills to work through their differences. They feel closer to each other emotionally, which helps create buy in at work. The better we are at navigating our emotional lives, the more of our time can be dedicated to productivity at work.

We now have a common language...to be able to support each other

"Participating in Taming the Bear in a private class with a group 8 amazing (girl)friends so clearly deepened our connections. While all 8 of us knew we shared a similar desire to grow personally, it was awesome to spend 12 sessions together in a guided, supportive environment.

We now have a common language, and learned so much about supporting each other more deeply. I feel like I can pick up the phone or text anyone from our private group and our conversation starts at a whole new level. It was really meaningful to see how we all struggle in similar ways in this busy world, and to be able to support each other both during the course and outside of it. I learned so much watching my friends work through their own topics.

The course comes up in conversation between us all the time, and we have been done for over 6 months. I am so impressed with the lasting impact of the content of the 7 Tools."

I didn't know what I didn't know.

Before Taming the Bear (aka TTB), I can honestly say I didn't know what I didn't know.  I joined a private course at my friend's suggestion, and my only expectation was that I would walk away with a few stress-handling tools. I didn't realize how the course would transform my life.  I also don't think I realized my life was in need of a transformation.

Curiosity is my favorite TTB word. (Sorry Compassion, you're a close second!)  The whole course was a master class in being curious about whatever it is that causes stress and anxiety (or any other trigger emotion), and then following that curiosity deeper and deeper.  It's a beautiful, messy, spiraling, magnificent scavenger hunt into you own unique headspace. I REALLY fell in love with this part of the process.

Grace is the magical guide that allows all of this work to flow in an organic and authentic way. She's beyond intuitive and amazing to watch and learn from. She created a space for all of us to grow, at our own pace, and within our own boundaries.

Throughout the course, I found myself more open.  Open to laughter, open to mistakes, open to living a big juicy messy life.  I can breathe easier.  I can see the world around me a little clearer. I feel more connected - to myself - to my family - to my job - to what I want my life to be.

I am eternally grateful - for all of it. Thanks Grace!
