WORTH
Building self esteem by understanding the intrinsic value of the woman as a dynamic human being. The focus of these sessions is for each woman to understand their value, celebrate their uniqueness and know that they are wonderfully made. “I have Worth! Body and Soul, I am wonderfully made”

STRENGTH
Building resilience through problem solving skills, making healthy choices and managing emotions. The concept enables women understand how the power of choice and decisions can shape their futures. These topics are covered through practical sessions about feelings, willpower, convictions, boundaries and respect. I have Strength! ‘Choose life’

PURPOSE
Building on the other two aspects of worth and strength and using them as a foundation to encourage women to discover their potential and pursue their hopes and dreams. The focus of this session is for each woman to understand their purpose, to help the women set goals, discuss talents and hidden potential. The sessions are filled with practical activities that will enhance confidence. I have Purpose! ‘I have a hope and a future’
