Assertiveness for Life and Leadership:

Reclaiming Your Self Agency in a World that Wants to Tame You – an uncommon assertiveness course for people who care.

This intensive fourteen-week course co-facilitated by EQUUS CEO Kelly Wendorf and EQUUS Faculty Adam Ramcharan is designed to assist individuals to navigate the complicated world of human dynamics with forthcoming, transparent, and respectful self-agency, and self-care. We are not taught how to express ourselves authentically, nor express our boundaries harmoniously. Interpersonal dynamics become stressful, and important opportunities are lost. If left unchanged, this leads to depression, isolation, resentment and a haunting sense that something more is possible. If you are ready to move outside of your comfort zones and enter into the raw and wild places where change truly happens, then this game-changing course is for you.

Classes are weekly for two hours, with light homework and assignments in between.

  • "Only a few times in my life have I felt a true pivot, where I truly felt the energy of the universe gently guiding me down a certain path- marrying my husband, having my children, starting my own business. I put finding Kelly's book, Flying Lead Change, and having the opportunity to personally work with Kelly at her ranch, right up there on that list of live changers. With all of the success and obtaining everything I ever really desired in my life, I still felt as though I lacked the tools to live truly authentically. The description of this course on the Equus website sounded like the missing link and I enrolled."
