Here's an opportunity to improve your art!

May 30-June 1, 2014
Announcing a supportive, challenging, helpful, enlightening and fun
INTENSIVE COACHING WEEKEND
for
Storytellers, Writers,
and
those of you who want to increase your effectiveness in your workplace or community through story!
Are you one of these people?
Then, this intensive coaching weekend is for you!

Conducted by two nationally renowned professional storytellers and story coaches,
Beth Horner and Susan O’Halloran

This coaching weekend will be rigorous and supportive with structured feedback sessions that are safe, practical and effective.
You will leave with clear direction, knowing your next steps to reach your goals.

Sometimes, we just need the structure of setting aside a weekend to get done what we’ve been meaning to do – work on our stories!
You know how powerful stories are. Give yourself the gift of laser attention from two premiere story coaches.
 Sue and Beth quickly create a safe environment that fosters freedom to experiment. They are both attentive and skilled listeners...they seem to have listened the story right out of me. They helped me find meaning, the essence and the arc of my family story. And there was lots of laughter!
