Q:Are breaks
refreshments and
lunch provided in the
one and two day
seminars?
A: Yes, for the one
and two day seminars.
Q: I wanted to bring my
two daughters to the
seminar that deals with
mistakes young girls make
with boys. One of my
daughters is only 14. Isn't
that too young for her
to hear you talk about sex?
A: By the age of 18,
50% of all girls in a
recent study had already
had intercourse AND
oral sex, both giving
and receiving oral sex.
The time to educate
young women is from the
beginning, as soon as
they reach adolescence
and the boys they date
have reached adolescence
and are motivated to
have sex with them. The
lessons learned in this
seminar are life lessons
that will serve your
daughter well over all the
relationships she ever
has with men. They are
the lessons that much
older women repeatedly
express they "wish" they
learned when they were
12, 13, 14. It is obviously
up to you, the mom,
to decide what you want
your daughter to learn. It
is important, however,
not to stick your head
in the sand. Your
daughter is likely already
dealing with "boy
pressure" and this pressure
will only intensify. Girls
are faced with complex
sexual pressure long before
they have the psychological
strategies to cope well with
these situations. Don't
count on your daughter to
"tell you the truth" about
her sexual activity or
concerns. Most adolescent
girls will not be comfortable
discussing their sexual
experience with their mother
or father. Better by far to
simply make sure your
daughter(s) is educated
in a frank and specific way
by a certified sex educator
/sex therapist without you
attempting to pry
information from her. This
way, she will know how to
protect herself both
emotionally and physically.
Any daughter is much
better served by knowing
exactly how to handle boys
(and, later, men) than by
being left on her own to
fumble, flounder and err.
This mother daughter
seminar, by the way,
focuses on much more
than "sex." The emphasis
is on self-esteem, discipline,
dignity, assertiveness, and self-protection. This is an empowerment seminar and
not a sex education seminar,
per se.
Q: With your The 150
Mistakes Single Women
Make With Men™
seminar, are there really
that many mistakes and,
second, can widows attend?
A: There are many more
than 150 mistakes women
make with men! These are
the 150 worst mistakes
women make with men.
Widows have already
attended this seminar and
rate it as being extremely
useful.
Q: Do any of your
seminars deal with
domestic violence and
emotional and verbal abuse?
A: Yes, the Respect
Factor™ seminar focuses
on over 50 specific ways that
women, themselves,
contribute to low
self-esteem themselves
along with a great many
more ways that men
disrespect, degrade, and
debase women.
Tools are given to combat
each form of disrespect.
Many relationships are
characterized by
verbal and emotional abuse.
Unfortunately, many
relationships also have
some aspect of physical
abuse. While the seminar
focuses on identifying all
forms of disrespect and
abuse, the primary purpose
of the seminar is
empowerment. The seminar
has as its goal women
developing high self esteem
internally and setting firm
limits with all people, most
particularly the men in their
lives. Boundary setting
and enforcing, assertion
training, the "power of no"
are but a few of the tools
presented. Co dependency
and extreme dependency is
defined and tools are
presented for weakening
this process of self-
disrespect and
helplessness. All forms of
passivity and submissiveness
are addressed with tools
presented to combat
these patterns. Tools are
presented to help attendees focus
on themselves for nourishment
rather than upon others as their
source of nourishment.
Q: As for the 150
Mistakes seminar, don't
women pretty much know
what all these mistakes are?
A: Absolutely not. Not
one past attendee has
claimed to be aware of the
vast majority of these
mistakes, let alone claimed
to be clear on how to both
recognize and avoid these
for this seminar.
Q: Is the Relationship
Gifting™seminar mostly
just common sense?
A: No, the seminar is very
uncommon sense. There is a 65% failure rate in marriages,
including couples who are
unhappy or separated but stay
married for "the kids," financial reasons, dependency, feelings of inadequacy, family reasons,
social reasons, etc. Only
one in three truly make it
in any meaningful sense
of the phrase.There are
very specific relationship
tools that, once learned and
applied, can greatly increase
any couple's odds of being
one of the successful and
happy couples. But, who teaches couples these tools? Schools,
parents, colleges, universities?
No one teaches couples these tools. This seminar teaches and trains
all the key tools necessary to put
the odds on your side
of the table on your path to
a successful relationship.The
seminar is for couples who are committed to "getting there
and staying there."
Q: How do I know which is better for me, the one
or two day seminars?
A: Honestly, the issue is
more an economic decision
than anything else. The two
day seminar provides more in
depth coverage of all issues
along with workshop
application of the principles.
So, in that sense, it is
"better." But the one day
seminar is thorough enough
for most people to feel
ready and motivated to
apply the principles and
tools learned. And, the one
day is seminar has a lower
seminar fee. This is a
decision only you (and your
partner) can make.
Q: Is the Relationship
Gifting™ seminar just about relationships and communication or does it
deal with improving sex,
also?
A: This seminar devotes
nearly 50% of the time to all
aspects of sex in your relationship. There were originally two seminars
that have now been combined.
The sexual seminar was
entitled "How to Be the World's
Greatest Lover for Your Partner."
The sexual portion of the seminar
deals with how to resolve sexual conflicts, sexual problems,
with sexual dysfunctions,
sexual communication, sexual
variety, all the tools to
develop the very best sexual relationship you can
together, sexual
communication, coping with
sexual ruts, sexual
experimentation, sexual myths
and much more. The seminar
deals practically with
improving all aspects of sex,
to include intercourse, oral
sex, etc.There are exercises,
homework experiences and
handouts. In the two day
seminar, there is a workshop
devoted to improving sexual communication.
Q: My daughter doesn't
want to come to the mother
daughter seminar on the
mistakes girls make with
guys.Shall I drag her in?
A: Drag her in? I think you
can tell her that probably many
girls who attend have not "wanted
to come" to begin with but that no
girl who has actually heard this
seminar has ever once wanted to
leave before it was over. So, her initially not wanting to go is "normal!" You might tell her that if she is that one person who
does want to leave, you will let
her leave early (with you, of
course). The odds are very high
that, once the seminar begins,
she will be very involved.
Q: My daughter seems to be
mainly embarrassed about
going to a seminar with me
that discusses sex. Can I
bring her and pick her up and have her come alone?
A: You have that option.
Q: Do you have books in
the works that cover the
seminar topics?
A: Yes. Many attendees
have expressed interest in
buying seminar companion
books. I expect to have
companion books available
within the next year.
