Important Announcement
Good morning all. I had intentions of presenting different courses as we go into the New Year but unfortunately my 13.5 year old service dog Rocky will be laid to rest next Friday. I will return to on video content soon. please stay Accountable to your coursework. stay Disciplined to the task at hand. keep your Vision in sight. maintain Integrity in everything you do. Communicate when you need support. carry Empathy in not just in your heart, but always in your action. That is my A.D.V.I.C.E.

Sorry to hear this. I respect the fact that you are following what you are teaching us.
Q and A LIVE [11/25]
Thank you to everyone who joined!! Please see the questions that were answered below: - When did you first realize you were on the right path — the “best-life” version of yourself? - What makes your approach and this platform different from the next person’s? - Do you need to have lived the same life experiences—marriage, kids, relationships—to truly help someone go deep in their healing? - Why did you leave a warm climate with palm trees and beaches and move back to Missouri? - How do I know when to stay with the free classes versus when it’s time to move into the premium programs? - How do you balance everything—writing, consulting, speaking, and The Work—without burning out? - What is the purpose of The Work, and how does someone know they’re actually making progress? - If someone feels stuck or numb, which course should they start with first?

I should have watched this one weeks ago. This resonates with my personal/professional challenges. Thank you for doing these.

Informative video. Realizing I need to make time to for these lessons. The challenges resonate with me.
Welcome to The Work. Welcome to the Know Hope Society.
If you’re here, it’s likely because you’ve carried more than you’ve said. Maybe you’ve been the strong one for a long time. Maybe you learned to keep going even when parts of you were slipping away. This Community is for learning how to stay with yourself again. The Classroom is where resources are collected. The Calendar is where events will be posted. Not by fixing, performing, or “pushing through,” but by being present with what’s real. We move slowly here. We tell the truth without collapsing. We practice hope as something we do, not something we wait to feel. You are now part of The Know Hope Society — a community that believes healing is not done alone. It’s done together, with honesty and steadiness. As your footing returns, some of you will step into the next chapter: leadership through V.I.E.D.C.A. Vision Integrity Empathy Discipline Communication Accountability There is no timeline. You’ll know when you’re ready. For now, only this: Arrive. Be Here. You belong already. How to Engage: If there are topics, questions, or struggles you want to explore — ask. If there’s something you need language for — say so. If there’s something you want us to work through together — bring it here. This space grows with us. Introduce yourselves below!
