February 12: Orientation
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
We’ll kick off with a lively overview of the weeks ahead and friendly introductions – followed by small group breakouts so you can get to know the amazing women you’ll be rising with in STEPPING UP STRONG.
You’ll also learn about weekly office hours, opt-in cohorts, and other optional offerings included in your enrollment.
As with every session, Orientation will be recorded and shared in our online Resource Portal.
Your first on-demand learning module, WHO WE ARE, will drop on this day. Expect ongoing modules twice each month.
February 19: Guided Interaction, “Who We Are”
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
Get ready for an eye-opening look at who women, the females of our species, have been since the dawn of time. This unique overview will show you the equality and power women have held across human history – and reveal the disruption that led the world astray only 3,500 years ago.
Above all, learn why our true story matters – and how to put it to use as you move forward.
February 20 & 21: Office Hours
via Zoom; 11am-12pm PST and 6-7pm PST
Here’s your chance to drop by and explore any questions or ideas you’re already having about our work together: to get answers, share recommendations, or simply interact with Ellen and your STEPPING UP STRONG community members.
February 26: Women Today
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
Learn the facts about our leadership value, importance in decision-making and politics, economic impact, and essential contributions to the world today. There’s plenty of good news, yet there’s a dark side we all need to know: how our clout gets diluted by the financial, medical, political, and social status quo.
Fun stuff? No. Yet knowledge is power, and knowing how we get lost in the system can help point the way to a better path forward. Those next steps are what we’ll explore in this session.
Your second on-demand module, POWER LEAKS (AND HOW TO CLOSE THEM) will launch on this day.
March 5: Guided Interaction, “Power Leaks”
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
Too many of us leak our power, diluting both our positive impact and our sense of satisfaction. Learn how and why this happens – and how you can close the leaks and step up to more authentic, meaningful ways of showing up in the world.
We’ll explore five all-to-common ways that power leaks away, and learn in-the-moment practices that shift us back to more strength, authenticity, and confidences across a range of real-world circumstances. You’ll receive follow-up practices and “how tos” you can print out and pin to your vision board or anywhere else to prime your mind to remember.
March 12: Banishing the Imposter
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
Face the truth about Imposter Syndrome; why it rises, how it affects women, and what works – really works – to head it off at the pass.
You’ll practice proven methods for shutting the Imposter down, learning to recognize it early so you can steer clear of the stress and diminishment it all too often delivers.
On-demand Module Three, THE FEMALE BRAIN will be available today.
Week of March 17 (date TBD): SPECIAL GUEST
via Zoom, time TBD
Get ready for inspiration with a groundbreaking guest speaker: a woman of impact creating a positive ripple effect in the world and for women like you. You’ll have the chance to meet, learn from, and interact with her, gaining both inspiration and actionable mindsets and tips. And you’ll love how the “THE FEMALE BRAIN” module prepared you for this dialog.
This recording will be available, along with all other session recordings, in our Resource Portal so you can view it on demand.
March 19: Guided Interaction, “The Female Brain”
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
Dive deeper into the unique capabilities of the female brain – in ways that help you lean in to its powers and also give insights into male brains, and why our ways are as different as they often are.
Expect to leave this discussion with useful practices for getting out of your habitual mind and into the innately female ways of thinking the world needs now. NOTE: content may change depending on Guest confirmation and availability.
March 26: Office Hours
via Zoom; 11am-12pm PST and 6-7pm PST
We’ll have plenty to explore together by this time. Drop in to either session – or both! – for informal conversation and Q&A.
Your fourth on-demand module, “SETTING YOUR VISION,” will launch today – along with the workbook you’ll use to structure your future plan as we continue through this course.
Week of March 31 (date TBD): SPECIAL GUEST
via Zoom, time TBD
More inspiration! Our guest will explore the mindful use of language and the deep power rising from intentional use of our thoughts and words. You’ll learn reliable ways to speak with more intent and impact – and practice a meditation to guide your next steps in speaking from your mind, spirit, and heart.
This recording will be available, along with all other session recordings, in our Resource Portal so you can view it on demand. NOTE: content may change depending on Guest confirmation and availability.
April 2: Guided Interaction, “Setting Your Vision”
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
Plan on gaining new clarity for your vision in a supportive, interactive session. Working together, we’ll take first steps toward our initial Vision Plans, encouraging each other to step up – maybe more than ever before – and elevate the talents and impact we know we’re here to offer.
Your fifth on-demand learning module, YOU AND YOUR WORDS, will be available today.
April 9: Guided Interaction, “You and Your Words”
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
Self Talk, the language of limitation, the words that set you back: words are messengers that deliver much more than meaning. Often, they deliver unconscious beliefs along with the literal messages they convey. Using words to gain insight to those beliefs is a powerful tool for change. In this session we’ll practice easy, actionable “language hacks” that shift your unconscious mind from limitation to abundance, simply by upgrading your words.
A short learning module, “THE STORY OF YOU,” ships today, guiding an inspiring exercise to prepare for our April 16 session.
April 16: Guided Interaction, “The Story of You”
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
Today’s session will be so much fun you may not realize how powerful it is. You’ll spend time in small groups, introducing and activating your “future self” in a way that invites a surprising benefit: an inspiring guide you can access as you walk the path ahead.
This exercise is rooted in both neuroscience and psychology, along with a few other frameworks – yet it’s playful, connecting, and deeply enjoyable. You’ll feel the shift once you’ve completed it, and you’ll leave with ways to keep the inspiration alive.
You’ll receive your final on-demand module, BUILDING THE VISION, today.
April 23: Guided Interaction, “Building Your Vision”
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
Dynamic, idea-activating exchanges will guide your Vision Plan to the next level, giving you everything you need to complete your final steps in crafting a vision you’ll be invited to share in our interactive Vision Gallery during our final week. You’ll also be invited to drop in for one of several office hours sessions I’ll be offering this week – great ways to gain clarity on your final steps as this course draws to a close, or to discuss anything else that’s arisen during the transformational journey we’ve shared.
April 24, 25, & 28; times TBD : Office Hours
via Zoom; times TBD
Drop-in Office Hours: join for Q&A, feedback and recommendations, or idea-sharing about your Vision Plan or any other thoughts stemming from this course.
April 30: Stepping Up Strong
via Zoom; 11am-12:15pm PST
Here’s where we step up to our next level – going forth with new clarity, confidence, and the authentic empowerment you knew all along was waiting. This is a beginning as much as an ending, and we’ll explore ways of continuing the connections we’ve established and building on the progress already made.
Plan on a sense of celebration and a memorable ritual to share as we acknowledge all we’ve accomplished – and how it will serve us (and beyond!) as we move ahead.
