Through the "Struggle to Strength" course, moms embark on a journey of self-discovery, growth, and empowerment. The program aims to provide a safe and supportive space where moms can openly explore the complexities of their relationships with their adult children and gain valuable insights into their own emotions, reactions, and coping mechanisms.

The "Struggle to Strength" course is specifically designed for moms who are facing the challenges of estrangement or strained relationships with their adult sons or daughters.

The "Struggle to Strength" course spans over a duration of 6 weeks, and during each week, you will be presented with 3 assignments to complete. This format allows for a structured and progressive learning experience, guiding you through various aspects of the course content and providing ample opportunities for personal growth and reflection as you navigate the challenges and themes addressed in the program. There are actionable steps and self reflective questions for you to process through

No specific prerequisites or prior qualifications are required for enrolling in the "Struggle to Strength" course. The primary requirement is simply a willingness to work on yourself and a genuine desire to navigate the challenges of estrangement or strained relationships with your adult children.

The "Struggle to Strength" course offers two options for participants to choose from:

• Self-Paced Option: With the self-paced option, you have the flexibility to work on the course at your own pace and convenience. There are no specific timelines or deadlines to adhere to. While you won't have support calls with this option, you can access all the course materials and resources to learn and grow at your preferred speed.

• Live Course Option: The live course option includes 4 group Zoom sessions where you can interact directly with Sally and other participants. These sessions are designed to answer any questions you may have related to the course assignments and content. It offers a more interactive and engaging experience with the opportunity to receive live support and connect with a community of moms on a similar journey.

Both options provide valuable insights and support to help you navigate through the challenges of estrangement or difficult relationships with your adult children, allowing you to choose the learning style that best suits your preferences and schedule.

For the "Struggle to Strength" course, it is recommended to dedicate approximately 3 hours per week to complete the three assignments. This time commitment allows you to engage with the course content, reflect on the topics covered, and work through the assignments at a comfortable pace.

However, it's important to note that the course is designed to be flexible, and the self-paced nature of the program allows you to adjust your schedule as needed. The lifetime access to course materials ensures that you can revisit the content, review the lessons, and work on the assignments at your own convenience, even beyond the 6-week duration of the course.

The aim is to create a supportive learning environment where you can take the time you need to absorb the material, process your emotions, and implement the strategies effectively. So, while there is a suggested time commitment of 3 hours per week, the emphasis is on providing a stress-free and empowering learning experience that accommodates your unique circumstances and allows for meaningful personal growth.
