What to expect

Support groups will begin with a five to ten minute open discussion on the current topic. The remaining forty-five minutes will be open to personal discussion, sharing and support.

Unlike community training events, each support group participant will have the ability to talk live throughout the session.

How to register

1. If you are currently/or have been in personal coaching and are interested in attending a support group, use the contact us form to register. Be sure to include both an email address for us to send the confirmation link and what group session (day/time) you are registering for.

2. Once we receive your registration, we will send you an email which includes a link to the private group. Included in this email will be a password to allow you to enter the online support room as well as a general agenda for the meeting.

3. ONE TIME ONLY: These support groups are intended to be free. We have selected a software package that is integrated with Skype--a free, Internet-based phone service. If you would like to listen to these sessions without worrying about cell phone minutes or long-distance, take a minute to download Skype. Download Skype . The entire process should take less than five minutes and should be completely free.

4. A few minutes prior to the group, click on the meeting link and enter the code assigned to that meeting.

5. CoachJon will direct the initial discussion, but this will not be a typical academic learning environment--it will be one focused on supporting personal growth and development for each participant. Volunteers to lead future topics will be encouraged--but not pressured.

A Few Odds and Ends

*If you are using Skype, you will need headphones/microphone or computer speakers/microphone to hear communicate with the rest of the group.

*Within each session, every group member will have the opportunity to share openly, ask personal questions, etc. The group will be moderated so that no one person dominates the entire session.

* Please Register at Least One Day in Advance

You are asked to register for each session you plan on attending at least one day in advance. This is out of courtesy to me. These are free group meetings and if one or more people register, I will be more than happy to conduct the session. Otherwise, I would much prefer to spend that time with my family or playing basketball, golfing, tennis, etc.
