What is the history of this program?
The program was originally called Aspirations Workshops since 1986 when it was first invented. The first website for that went live in 2001. That site offered free advice online until 2025 and the pages with the most viewership were suicide (prevention and healing for families after suicide), bullying, healing from cancer, and the online page had free advice and downloads to follow the program for the blog and show followers.
This program was shared for two and a half decades with links in online forums and then through a daily blog, from 2007 through 2019, and a weekly online show from 2016 through 2019, that are no longer online. The testimonials on the reviews page are from real people who learned the program and watched the show. The videos and blog articles are integrated into the new and improved program and some will be put back up online after the program goes live again.
How did this program come to exist?
Since 1986, this has always been the life's mission a 15 year old girl devoted herself to. She wanted to teach people the path to peace and permanently solve problems, not cycle through it repeatedly, to heal the darkness that can be hidden behind closed doors. She immersed herself in learning from every source she could get her hands on so she could teach, and still does.
T term "life coach" didn't even exist when she started teaching, and the Internet wasn't like it is these days. She is a real person who struggled through abuse and traumas and wrote about how she survived, and the things she learned from, and she offers the tools she found that helped her survive.
She invested hours every day for decades to learning like a sponge so she could help herself and others. That is the origin story and why this program works for people.
A Complete Life Transformation Program
With this program, you Gain Support, Tools and Resources for Lasting Change
Tools for big changes that can apply any aspect of your life.
A life program that becomes your guide to a better future.
Your Value Documents™ hold your guiding principles.
A support community of real people offering help and hope.
The program teaches a person tools and new ways of processing life experiences so that each experience is a stepping stone to a better life. She also invented a lot of original teachings that came from independent thinking, which she strongly advocates everyone do. The program is set up to change mindset first because nothing else can work until a person can see how and why behind it. She uses metaphors and stories to make the lessons, assignments, exercises, traits training, daily devotionals, and the program tools easy to follow. The biggest differences between this program and others is that this program encourages going out to learn from every resource and it walks people through how to do that, and that there is no cycling the past. This program teaches a person how to change change their future by looking forward with a solid toolbox full of tools to make that possible. The program page explains the path in a visual way so that is an easy way to understand the journey.
Why 14 months?
The program itself used to be a year working through it one-on-one or in small groups. It has over 700 teaching parts. The new and improved program has a one month transition bridge to pivot to finalizing the Value Documents™ because the ValDocs™ used to be done alone after the program. Now they are built into the software because they are the cornerstone the person lives by after finishing a round of the program. On a larger scale like this, those documents were able to become partially automated. The whole program became a lot easier with the help of technology.
