Soul Restoration 2: creating the life you want to live…the life you will LOVE
Next session: Begins October 16, 2012
Registration will open Sept 18, 2012
- Online Course in 6 Lessons (classroom will be available to you thru mid January 2013!)
- This is a stand-alone course – you do not have to take Soul Restoration 1 first
- Now written transcripts are available for those who are hard of hearing.
Are you ready to move forward? I AM!! Soul Restoration 1 got us all unstuck, healed and on track…and now we are ready to fly!
Join me and the fabulous Brave Girls Club team as we take you through a super fun, effective and artsy journey to create the life that you really, truly want…the life that is intended for you…and a life that you will love!
Through art and projects, we will be making tools that will help you identify your goals, commit to your goals and break your goals down into bit sized chunks…and before you know it, you will be doing all of the things you’ve always wanted to do.
NO MORE EXCUSES, ok? I’m putting my excuses away….I am ready to feel ELATED at the end of each day because of how I spent my time, I am ready to do what it takes to live the life that I truly want to be living. I am ready to stop wasting time, stop procrastinating and make a REAL PLAN. I know you are ready too….LET’S DO THIS!ace

Amy, I’m stuck like you, I’m still trying to finish SR1 for the second time!
, but I wanna don’t give up and go for SR2. I would like to contact you and maybe we can help each other in the process, What do you think about that? 
.
Melody Will pdf and videos for SR1 available until July? Melody and Kathy THANKS A MILLION FOR ALL THE WORK DOING!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!
I am sure I am signed up for Soul Restoration II but didn’t recieve me sign up information.
Please let me know what to do.
is it too late to start?
I’m guessing it’s way too late to start SR2. When will it be offered again?
Totally screwed up and did not finish Soul Restoration 2 . Will it be offered again?
Anita, Soul Restoration 2 will begin again on Sept 27…and anyone who has taken it can repeat the class for just $25. You’ll be sent a special link a week or so before the 27th. So don’t despair….you’ll still be able to finish!!
love,
kathy
In three more weeks this class will end. Can I sign up for the next Soul Restoration II so I don’t miss a week of this? I don’t want the exploration to end.
Just finishing SR2- LOVE it!!! I have some feedback, don’t know where to send it/ write it so im putting it here- hope thats ok. Things I think would help others finish- 1) make it a little more clear a little earlier on that the fun sheets a) you may want to write nice and use pretty colors b) that they will be cut up to go in corresponding sections of book. I figured it out WAY late- was very confused about those sections, how I would find enough pictures from magazines to fill them and then when I had the aha moment I rewrote all 14 pages pretty enough to deserve a place in my special book. 2) I think if these pages are at least sorted by fun pages it is a lot easier to move forward in a meaningful way with goals etc… I found a paper that mentions this- but I think another video needs to be added before goal week to clarify this- take pressure off of pictures and be sure the fun PGs are at least sorted like this.
In another spot- little typo on “important” in the pages after landmines. It’s on the one about enjoying yourself… My last comment is that I truly amazing- LOVE the course! Can’t wait for SR1.
I’m very interested in registering for the SR2 class and wonder what the fee covers?
I noticed a big supply list- is there a kit that is included like in SR1?
Hi, Kelly – Thank you so much for the feedback! Much appreciated!
And Adriana….there is no kit with either SR1 or SR2 (we did offer a kit with SR1 the very first time). So included with the class is the weekly videos (lots) and beautiful printable pdfs (lots) plus participation in the online community/forums. I hope that helps! We’d love to have you join us in SR2 — it’s a ton of fun and the projects are something that we continue to work on almost every day here at the clubhouse (we really do!). Let us know if you have more questions.
love, kathy
Taryn, I missed your question previously…sorry about that!
Yes, you can sign up for SR2 again. There will be a one-week break between the two sessions (the one you’re in and the one that starts on 9-27), and each of the 6 lessons for the new session will roll out one week and a time, so it’ll be six weeks before the last lesson is available again.
You still have until the end of the day tomorrow to access the class if you want to try to finish now.
I’m so glad you’re enjoying the class!
love,
kathy
Just tonight I finished the last SR1 lesson and it was great BUT it did zap my energy and I feel a bit like my life was on hold while I was doing some necessary work on myself. So my question is should I expect the same from SR2? I’d really like to take the course but cannot afford to be checked out of life any longer. I’m thinking that SR1 was such an energy drainer because it was mostly looking back and maybe SR2 may be more energizing because it appears to be forward looking. I think I should take SR2 either way but if it’s going to be as draining as SR1 I will just take a break between. Please let me know your thoughts.
This is exactly what I need, find out who I am again & what I want in life rather than watch it pass by and not enjoy it to the fullest
Oh how bad I need this…:o) I have been so lost in myself and found that I have lost myself badly., I have been reading and watching all of the information you all put out and know that I will benefit strongly from this class. I hope to be able someday go to one in person, the retreat. I have been through so many struggles in life and just keep going cause that is what I do but I can definetly use a much much much needed refresh class. It something I really want to do.
Yay just signed up for my first Soul Restoration.. I can see lots of tears but a better person coming out the other side.
Can’t wait to start soul restoration 2 I’m just waiting for my sign in information. Will my password from soul restoration 1 be what I will use. It’s 12:23 in California on the 27th and I have not received anything for starting the class to day. I guess I need to be patient. I just enjoyed working through soul restoration 1 that I’m anxious to get going.
Hi! When will you be offering SR2 next year? I’m not sure if I will have enough time to do this course during this session, and I really really want to do it the next time it’s offered! Please let me know when you get a chance. Thanks so much!!!!! And Happy Anniversary to Brave Girls Club!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just began the first week of my first Soul Restoration. I am already struggling a bit with the fun sheets but am determined not to let myself chicken out. I want to Scarlet O’Hara the questions that make me uncomfortable and say that I will think about that tomorrow –but I am just breaking it up and answering a few at a time and then let myself take a break . I can see that for me it is going to be about remembering that I choose to do this — no one is making me. I choose to trust in the Brave Girls. If I make the choice then I earn the positive consequences that will come from it. I like that!!
help — i have lost my login letter for this work shop please resend….thx
Will there be an upcoming SR2? I took #1 (loved it) but missed SR2 when it came out— itching for this. LMK, ok?
(thanks)… keep up the AWESOME job!
I love what you are doing!!!!
So to do SR !! you don’t have to have done SR !? Asking because I really want to do the soul restoration before I do the body restoration. Thanks!
I am so looking forward to SR2, especially after taking SR1 this winter.
I’m just wondering if I retake Soul Restoration 2 if it will be exactly the same videos etc as the last time or if anything gets updated. I LOVED it but have hardly started my book so am contemplating retaking it but just curious if it will be at all different.
Patty….it’s all the same. The only addition is the live chats twice a week.
I’ve taken SRI twice. And SRII twice. I just can’t seem to escape the black cloud of depression. Every day I wake up I’m surprised I haven’t ended it all.
Manda, are you seeing a doctor? I hope it’s okay if I plead with you to see someone immediately who can help you. You have been so diligent and you’ve worked so hard in the classes, but sometimes the issue is completely physical and you need to find out immediately if that is what you are dealing with. This is your life, your precious beautiful life, and you deserve to protect it. I’m so proud of you for all the work you are doing. Don’t give up! XOXO
Can anyone tell me how much time each week is typically devoted to classes and projects? My life is quite busy with work and I have a business trip in the middle of the course…is this something most people can work into a busy life? Thanks!!
Ellen, you can do this course on your own schedule. Some girls do the class in as little as a few hours a week, some spend much more time on their projects. Some girls complete the class right on ‘schedule’ in six weeks…some will take the six weeks plus every bit of the bonus weeks to finish up (in this case, thru July 15!). I hope that helps you out! xoxo kathy
Hi, will there be another SRII in 2012? I want to take it again – it’s that good! But I’m not sure the timing is right for me right now.
Wanda
Yes, Wanda — there will be another session of Soul Restoration 2 in six months.
Thanks, Kathy! And hello! I will definitely be taking it again this year!
I am so excited to take SR2 again! I did not get to finish everything, so I think this will be the push to make me complete all of the work! I was painting pages this weekend, so I decided the way to complete this was to join in again. This way, I will make myself finish what I started, which I think is so very important. I hate to leave something undone. Also, I want to join the Red Carpet Group, but I can’t seem to figure out how to do that! Any suggestions? I tried to find the “request” but cannot seem to figure that out!!!!?????
Also, how will the live chats work?
Thank you……can’t wait for tomorrow!
I’m looking for a group or person that can send me inspirational quotes, sayings, information daily to give me that extra push!
i cant sign up for SR2??? can someone help i am in australia and it isnt giving me any options but america please help
I would like to start this class SR2 but Im worried I may need to take #1 it sounds like SR1 is more getting rid of the past and RS2 is moving forward, if this is correct I believe I can start SR2, because I dont think I have any past issues.
I hope I can get a response before its to late to join, Im in MN. its 11pm central time
Thank you
Diana
I was crying as I was reading it because I need all of this so badly, but I can’t do it right now, for a lot of reasons. I’m unemployed right now and barely surviving doing some work at home, but more than that, I don’t even think I can answer the questions in the course. I know I’m totally stuck inside my head right now and even though I am trying to do all of this, trying to live MY life by backing down from the rat race and doing things how I want to do it, between the blows to my self esteem, failed family and personal relationships and the fact that I no longer have dreams or aspirations to do anything, I feel like it would be wasted on me, anyway. I don’t even know what I want to make for dinner anymore, let alone what to do with my life, and all the people around me keep pushing me to do all the things I don’t want to do, so I doubt I would get out of this what I should. It sounds lovely, though. It made me cry because that’s how I want to feel. Free and happy, and like I have a purpose, and I matter.
Diana you don’t have to do SR1 first
you can start wherever you wish 
Diana, Stacey is right…you don’t have to take SR1 before SR2…they are stand alone classes. Sounds like it will be perfect for you! xoxo kathy
Hi Melody,
I just wanted to commend you for the great work that you do in helping other women.
The path you have chosen is so amazing and really touches my heart because it’s so much
like what I would love to do someday – use art to help heal people, help them find their truth and
inspire them. I don’t know what that looks like for me yet but I will continue moving forward
with that goal in my heart – I hope to take one of your workshops in the near future – finances
are tight for my family right now but I’m making it my mission to figure out how I can make it
happen. Thank you for the inspiring, thoughtful, beautiful and loving messages you send out everyday!
How incredible that this email and sign up showed up today! I have been feeling stuck even though things are going so well. I know i have needed a push or a leap or something but not knowing what that was……then this email showed up and I am so willing to do the work. I have been to your camp and hope to in 2013 but I need this now. Thank you thank you thank you………………….
p.s. Hi Kathy and Melody
I REALLY REALLY want to take this class but it is just not the time (going back to work, 2 kids birthdays & Christmas all coming up). When do you think it will be offered again in the New Year? It seems to be what I need but my work space is my kitchen table and my kitchen table is needed for these celebrations. But I do have my Birthday early in the New Year and this would be great for then. Thanks!
is it too late to sign up for this???????
I, too, would like to know when this class is being offered again. We are in the process of moving cross-country and I would love to sign up for the next class (the one after the October 16th class). My husband is in the military and I’ve simply been coping with the endless moving and ups-and-downs that are a constant in military life. I need to get on track towards my personal goals because I know that when I have that inner calm that comes from doing what I love, then I can be the best wife and mother I am capable of being.
Soul Restoration 2 will be offered again next Spring in April. Hope you can join us then!! Good luck with the moving…I know that’s challenging, and big thanks to your husband and you for your service! xo
It’s not too late, Diane! Registration is open thru November 16, and the classroom is open thru Jan 15. Hope you can join us! xo
One day I will take this class!! It sounds incredible and Melody’s email “An incredibly important message from me (Melody) to YOU” could have been a personal note to me. Her words resonated within my soul, a soul that needs restored. I just started back to work after being laid off since January 2010 and in the interim I completed my Bachelors of Science in Communications. Now I have this degree I’ve always wanted but not sure how to move forward or what direction. So thank you Melody for being a light in the darkness for so many women and please continue to offer this class. I can’t afford this session, can’t really afford not to take it either but I will save my pennies for the next session in 2013. Hugs!
Can we start late? Just caught this and PSYCHED about taking it!
Yes, you can still join, thru 11-16!!! xo
my account has been suspended???? Why
