Learn Trade Secrets and Change Lives

** Learn Trade Secrets of Leading Workshops...
in the Only Fully Customizable Training on the Web**

Do you want to create a workshop of your own that uses your own unique gifts to inspire people BUT you don't want to start from scratch?

Do you coach artists, entrepreneurs, or other creators, but need more information on how the creative process really works?

Have you checked out other creativity trainings, but they're too expensive to simply too limiting?

Do you, yourself, long to reignite your own creative spark?

If so... congratulations! You've come to the right place.

I'm in the business of moving people to express themselves. My book, How Much Joy Can You Stand? has sold more than 60,000 copies world wide and was featured in SELF, Fitness Magazine, and as One Spirit Book Club main selection. My new book, Living Your Joy, is an amazon bestseller!

But enough about me... let's talk about you.

Have you ever had the urge to lead workshops? To connect intimately with a group of people for a few hours, or a weekend, or even an entire week?

In my mind, there is literally no better way to offer lasting, seismic change to those who seek it. Yes, we live in a technically advanced age loaded with cool ways to deliver information from e-books to Audio Podium recordings. All of which is exciting... but none of which can replace the simple power of a living, breathing teacher.

Think for a minute: what has had the most impact on you in your own life? A good book, or a great teacher?

If you're like most of us, that teacher's face comes swimming to mind. And yet, a great workshop offers something even more powerful ­ the chance to learn from others. A great workshop has a way of connecting souls... so you emerge refreshed and inspired, and full of a profound love for humanity. That's what we're offering you here.

The How Much Joy Can You Stand? Facilitator's Home Study Program teaches you how to lead just such a workshop. The fun begins when the Facilitator's Program arrives, because the first thing you do is 'take' my basic How Much Joy Can You Stand? Workshop. Then I teach you how to actually lead the workshop for others, in a three hour or full-day format. You will...

  • Learn how to connect with your own innate creativity, and help others connect with theirs
  • Discover the difference between your intuitive guidance and the pestering pit bulls in your head
  • Gain clarity on your mission and purpose in life
  • Do a powerful exercise that demonstrates exactly how creative you really are
  • Learn ten truths that must be present to make your dreams real -- and learn how to share them with others
  • Understand why people let their dreams die, and what you can do about it.

"The wealth of information you have shared has taken the mystery our of conducting workshops in general—for that I am grateful! I've also learned that using creativity as a way to delve deeper into yourself takes some of the scariness away..."
—Lis Tanz-Harrison, life coach

For several years I taught this workshop to international audiences across the US and Canada. Now I no longer lead this workshop anywhere. Instead, I'm making it available to you as a home study course you can do at your own pace, on your own schedule, in the comfort of your own home or office. It arrives by UPS or express mail within three to five days of ordering (customs clearance permitting.)

In the box you'll find an elegantly designed, three-ring binder, almost 130 pages of course material, and a meditation CD with two powerful, guided visualizations.

Furthermore, this program includes a license agreement which gives you the right to transform and use this material however you wish... you can lead it without restrictions on a fee or free basis. Incredibly enough, you get all of this for a single, affordable price. No royalty payments. No hidden charges. You simply pay me once (or in three monthly installments), we ship the course, and you're up and running. If you'd like to read our license agreement, click here.

If you've read enough, click here to purchase the course.

Now, should you be concerned that we're offering some strange, est-retread from the seventies where everyone has to wear matching sweater vests and name tags, relax. This program is literally the only one on the Internet that will teach you how to lead our inspirational workshop, then take that material and change it however you want.

Why change it at all?

Because I don't want you do go out and replicate my entire workshop, unless, of course, you really, really want to. I do not want hundreds of mini-me's running around the world, preaching Suzanne's Version of Creativity. I'd like you to take my basic points, and then create the rest of the workshop for yourself – so it bears your own basic stamp, and gets you excited about leading it. After all, your purpose in life may not be the same as mine. (Mine's moving people to express themselves. If you want to know more about yours, I'll get into that below.)

So that's why the How Much Joy Can You Stand? Facilitator's Workshop is fully customizable. There is an entire process in it to help you truly make it your own. But then, there's another key piece to this work... finding your ideal client.

We've got you covered on that, too, because on the enclosed CD is a critical meditation called "Finding Your Ideal Client". It helps you determine just who your ideal client really is. (The other one is "The Creativity Meditation", which takes you into your ‘creative studio', to meet your inner guides and learn more about the work you're here to do.)

A large chunk of How Much Joy Can You Stand? Facilitator's program is about targeting and marketing your workshops because, yes, you do need to think about such things. It's not enough just to have a heart full of passion for your subject and some great exercises. You have to think like a marketing pro and a business person as well, so you can make your workshop profitable, and reach the folks your meant to reach.

For 18 years before I became a self-help author, I was a Madison Avenue ad hack and marketing whiz, consulting with some of the biggest corporations in America and Europe. So I can guide you on this as well; I give you all the street-smarts and tools I can think of to help you really connect with those who need your message most.

By the way, you cannot find this information about filling workshops anywhere else on the Internet. (And do keep in mind that publicizing and leading workshops can help build a thriving coaching practice.)

"You seemed to anticipate every possible question or concern that a person new to giving workshops might have. I greatly look forward to implementing what I have learned."
—Lis Tanz-Harrison, life coach

In this program, you will:

  • Learn how to effectively coach anyone (even tough cases) to have a breakthrough with their dreams
  • Get inside info on the logistics of running an affordable workshop, including booking rooms, negotiating rates, catering, some legal considerations, handling registration, etc.
  • Learn how to fill your workshops with a minimum amount of effort
  • Receive templates for exercises, handouts, and important forms
  • Learn what sort of venues might hire you and what they generally pay
  • Find out important public speaking no-nos to avoid
  • Learn pitfalls that can kill fledgling workshops
  • Receive tools to personalize and envision your own Joy workshop
  • Become part of an ongoing support network of fellow facilitators

When you purchase our Facilitator's Program, you're automatically invited join our Monthly Call for Joy Facilitators. This is a free teleclass in which I speak with you and other facilitators out there who are busy leading this work. There's a growing, vital network of like-minded others who share support, ideas, resources, and more on these calls, and they're great! The calls are held every other month, from 8-9PM/Eastern (5-6PM Pacific). Usually they'll be on the last Wednesday or Thursday of the month, according to Suzanne's schedule. We will send you email updates with all pertinent details.

Finally, we've also included two bonus reports: "Who's Out There", which contains actual excerpts from the hundreds of email I've received from all sorts of creative dreamers. You'll learn what drives these people, and what they need from you.

"Report From the Trenches" features interviews with six successful dream pursuers, from a professional jester to an artisan bread baker who tell you their secrets for living their joy.

Why the Workshop Matters Right Now

In January, 2002, the late coaching guru Thomas Leonard wrote "The trend is definitely toward creativity/self expression. I believe there is a niche for a coach who can help clients make money from their creativity." In Today's Coach, Leonard wrote: "This is why clients are coming to coaches - to enter the age of inspiration and for help in earning their livelihoods via something they are inspired to do."

That's precisely what this workshop does - it provides the tools to move others towards full, free, unencumbered self-expression. It helps participants understand what it takes to follow their dreams, so they can actually take the leap and fully commit. It also explains the little vagaries of creating so you understand it better, even how to silence 'the pit bulls in your head' - those doubting voices all creators have to put up with sooner or later.

"Doing this workshop has unleashed other workshop ideas and now more detailed plans which I'm sure have been there for years.... I've booked three dates to do the workshop in my home in Australia!"
—Dawn Myree, life coach

The How Much Joy Can You Stand? Facilitator's Program gives coaches, therapists, and anyone else who works with others real, concrete tools for facilitating breakthroughs now.

Ways to Use This Work

Whether you are a coach trying to figure out how to deliver your own unique message, a therapist looking for effective new tools, or a How Much Joy reader who feels a true connection to this work, the Facilitator's Workshop is guaranteed to deepen your experience of creating. Many who've already taken the course have folded the Joy exercises into workshops of their own, or simply used this work to go much further on their journeys. Others have successfully led How Much Joy workshops in their region, and enjoyed the empowerment of moving people to express themselves.

We have authorized facilitators in spots around the US, as well as The Netherlands, Australia, Istanbul, Singapore, London, Nova Scotia, Denmark, Switzerland and more. Yet, more than 60,000 people worldwide have read and been moved by How Much Joy Can You Stand? In other words, there are still many places left to cast your Joy nets! (Especially since more than half our facilitators use this work to support other workshops or simply to further their own creative growth.)

And just in case you're still waffling about this because you'd like to SEE a lesson, well... have a free sample. Click here to download a free sample chapter now.

Because the point of this work is to promote joy, not angst, this program also comes with a full money-back guarantee. If you are not happy with it, please alert us and return the item in good shape within thirty days. We will provide a full refund immediately.

So what could a course this complete actually cost?

Even though comparable courses which include training and licenses are priced between $3,500 and $5,000, I am committed to making this course as widely available as possible. The price is a reasonable $375.

That's it - a simple one time fee you can actually live with - or, if you prefer, you can pay in three simple monthly credit card payments of $125. Click here for our installment plan.

I invite you now to sit back for a moment and think about what's possible. Are you called to share this work, and deepen its experience for yourself?

Still waiting for something, but you're not sure what? If you've read this far, it says to me that something inside of you is saying yes, yes, yes! You DO have a workshop to lead. And may I entice you to take the plunge by offering you an instant electronic download of two additional free reports that really sweeten the deal? (You can get busy with these as soon as you register!)

I do appreciate your taking the time to learn more about our work—I hope you can join us on what is truly an amazing journey!
