"Now that I've taken this eCourse, I definitely feel more motivated than overwhelmed about my goals. I think I need to write some of your comments on my forearm, Dawn, so that I'm constantly reminded of how to think about my goals!" Andrea, Actress
As an Urban Nomad I live and work without a permanent home. As a professional actress, I move all over the country to perform in various musicals. As a certified life coach with master's degrees in Lutheran theology and organizational psychology, I see life lessons in all of my adventures. My sense of stability comes from strong connections to people and deep commitments to goals. My personal mission is to ignite the experience of discovery in myself and those around me. I believe in the highest quality while working within your resources. I believe in being prepared for unexpected opportunities. I believe in perseverance on the road to overnight success.

Learn who you are and how you most effective interact with the world. Learn how your thoughts influence your time, space and money. Learn how to set exciting goals and actually reach them. All of this and more are now available in an e-course format.

Online interactive e-courses are an economical, effective way to improve your life on your own schedule. After you sign up, you'll receive access to a private blog, which you log into each day of your 4-week session. Complete that day's assignment any time during the day or night.

Although they are designed to inspire you, these courses are more than just a fluffy thought for the day. Each course is based in the latest scientific research on human motivation, goal setting and personality types. Materials are drawn from the fields of positive psychology, sociology, business administration and theology.

Each e-course meets for four weeks and includes
  • videos of Dawn and other experts
  • discussion questions and challenges
  • online interaction with Dawn and other participants. 
In order to get the most out of these e-courses, please consider these factors:
  • Do you have the time to commit to the course? (20 minutes per day or 30-45 minutes every other day)
  • Do you believe that you are an active agent in your life who can make significant changes?
  • Are you comfortable with the technology involved in the courses? (viewing short videos, commenting on blog posts, downloading pdf files?)
If you answered YES to all three questions ...

"These eCourses have been without a doubt a great use of my time and money.  I have looked forward to reading and writing each day, and receiving feedback from you and the others in the course.  I have been challenged and have grown in my own understanding of who I am.  I have learned how to create healthy habits that motivate me to set larger life goals.  And I am growing, step by step, in how to use my time so as to accomplish life goals that match my values. Thank you Dawn." - Pastor Steve
