OUR VISION: To eliminate burnout among caregivers, by painting the conversation for Renewal all over society and the world.

WE ARE ALL CAREGIVERS. Caregivers are the “safety net" of society. That upon which everything rests. Renewal is critical and necessary to maintain that "safety net". Therefore, your renewal assists in the continuous rebuilding and maintenance of that "safety net". Your RENEWAL is necessary for society itself.

Course is three days: July 11, 12, 13  2025.

The hours for each day are 10am-7pm Central, 11am-8pm Eastern on ZOOM.

$350 for the entire course.

Renew: 1. to restore or replenish; 2. to recover (youth, strength, etc.); 3. to restore to a former state; make new or as if new again; 4. to give a new spiritual strength to; 5. to begin or take up again, as an acquaintance, conversation, etc.; to resume.

Renewal is not an event. It is a state in which one lives. When renewal is available, work is fulfilling and fun. Commitments are nurturing rather than burdensome. With renewal, more gets done in less time without sacrificing relationships with patients, co-workers, and family. Instead of merely providing a refuge, family and friends become partners in life and work.

Caregivers are a critical part of every society. When they are nurtured and honored, a foundation or “safety net" is created which enables the rest of us to go beyond our immediate personal concerns. When burnout damages individual caregivers, we all suffer.

It is normal and natural for us to compromise our short-term well-being when dealing with an emergency. But this response is appropriate only for emergencies. When we use up our own well-being to deal with long-term situations - for example, the prolonged illness of someone we're caring for - the outcome is debilitating and self-defeating.

With Caregivers, a message is often heard: "In the name of service, I must sacrifice my own well-being."

The experience of burnout could be described as a feeling of hopelessness, resignation, despair, or absolute exhaustion.This experience is especially prevalent among people of high commitment; people who see needs that must be met; people whose passion moves them to take on challenges that are bigger than one person can handle; people who won't rest while there is suffering to be dealt with; people who commit themselves to the service of others. When our commitments call for more than one can bring to bear, situations can become unworkable and burnout seems inevitable. 

I can redirect my thoughts into effective action and remember to nurture myself in the process. Before it was just give, give, give. Now I can see the whole picture which gives me new perspective.

Cathy - Registered Nurse

I took this course and found it to be unique in its approach and immediately applicable to my position.

 Steve - Psychotherapist 

This is a different, deeper renewal then I expected and it applies to a broad spectrum of life experiences. It still provides great value even after a few months.

Cate - Registered Nurse

Honoring & nurturing was overwhelmingly present. I felt deeply acknowledged for my contribution as a caregiver. I can’t say that I ever felt so acknowledged - so much so that I cannot hide from it any longer.
