• Sometimes there is no choice. Sometimes decisions are made quickly and we need to learn the tools to communicate these choices effectively to our children and families. In this seminar, we will address the questions you may have regarding family decisions and how to navigate them with as little stress as possible. We will address different decisions you may be facing, concerns you may have and how your decisions will affect the entire family. People may be at different places, but the process should be about the same. This seminar will provide you with the tools you will need to navigate decisions as a family.

• Many of us know that getting along with others is the key to success. Our ability to "play nicely in the sandbox" is fundamental to both our career and our health. We will discuss what an emotion is, why you are having it and understand how our feelings can affect our moods in our daily life and the people that surround us.
