I've been a student in the program for a few months. I've appreciated the support of the accountability calls, the course program modules, the emails and the YouTube videos. Many programs have you pay, give you introductory material, maybe regular emails but then they forget about you unless you are persistent with following them.

As a single mom of 4 (3 still at home) that works 40-60 hours a week outside of the home, I needed a push to keep up with the program. The Accountability calls do that for me.

I'm learning to change my thinking (which doesn't happen over night) so having a year long commitment helps to break the habits/cycles. I thought that my children were the cause of the many problems in the home. (Because I adopted them all) I blamed the trauma and neglect they experienced before living with me and the Meth exposure they experienced in the womb. I blamed the PTSD, ADHD & ODD for the behaviors.

Now I'm learning how to be proactive instead of reactive so to set them up for success. I'm learning the part I've played in causing many of the behaviors. Because my habits are so ingrained and come out before I know it, I'm learning to change the root of my thinking to one that sees my children's goals and can help them to make plans to reach their goals in a healthy way.

I've learned that my children and I have been speaking a different language, which is frustrating and exhausting for everyone, but now we're bridging the gap between us. Instead of my smothering them because I want to protect them from every problem in life, I'm learning to empower them to handle problems without me, which is in line with the laws of nature.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the impact you've made in my life and that of my families.
