GIFTED MULTIPOTENTIALITES GROUP

When & Where: Starting end November, online

Spots available: 6

Session length: 2 hours per session

STRUCTURE OF THE GROUP SESSIONS:

This course incorporates a reading-in-advance, and the sessions have a Q&A/group discussion focus based on that session's theme. All of our courses combine essential information and guidance, as well as the cultivation of inspiring and normalizing gifted peer interaction. The atmosphere is an engaging group of dedicated individuals excited to make progress in their lives. Attendance at all sessions is expected (aside from emergencies).

THEMES INCLUDE:

• Understanding multipotentiality (looking at the research, resources on giftedness and creativity)
• Envisioning and shaping a balanced and fulfilling life as a gifted multipotentialite
• Career/job/school issues as a gifted multipotentialite; expectations, achievement and moving on
• The challenges of multipotentiality in relationships and family life; communication and negotiation
• Keeping a positive self-image in a world that doesn’t necessarily understand the gifted multipotential path and value; understanding our needs, honoring and accommodating the drive to develop
• Next steps, practical considerations, planning for ongoing support, suggestions for further reading

The group may want to continue meeting for additional sessions following completion of the first 6 sessions, depending on the issues raised and cohesiveness of the group. This is a possibility to explore. One-on-one coaching sessions throughout the 6 months of the group are available with Marion, in order to accelerate individual progress, or work through particularly challenging “knots” that go beyond the capacity of the group sessions. Those sessions are charged at Marion’s usual coaching rate of 125 USD per hour.
