About Us

What is Flourish TLP?

+

Flourish Women’s cohort is a life-giving opportunity that sustains and empowers those who participate! It is an intensive 10-month long life and leadership team, based on the Townsend Leadership Program (TLP) framework, that will accelerate your growth professionally and personally.

TLP is a way of taking a year for the purpose of intentional growth and change! This group coaching program is an accelerated vehicle for personal, relational and professional growth. Each group is made of 6-12 women from a variety of walks and yet each one will experience growth through their time within the group by sharing and listening to others experiences.

Research shows that as we grow in self-awareness (emotional intelligence) we will have increased access to skill sets and personal growth discoveries that help define us, our relationships, career and purpose-filled path in life. However, the skill of self-awareness is most powerful within the presence of others. We can't gain self-awareness on our own by absorbing content in books and podcasts or 'trying harder'. We need mentors and coaches and cohorts to gain this capacity. Just as working with a coach helps you grow individually, when the coaching experience becomes part of a group dynamic, the results are magnified and accelerated even more! Group coaching is quite an effective medium.

Flourish Workshop

May 4th 1:00-5:00 pm

Come and join us for an afternoon workshop and see get a taste of what Flourish can offer you! 

  • During this workshop, we will dive into the Townsend Growth Model, and how four developmental capacities in the model can help us grow and thrive both personally and relationally. We will take time to look at and process our own strengths and growth areas when it comes to this model.
  • We will also spend time learning how these four can help us tackle “the hard” that life throws at us, and do so while staying grounded and connected to our support systems. You will also have the opportunity to connect with other like-minded women who are on their own personal growth journey. No matter what season of life you are in, this is for you. 
  • Join us for a transformative experience that will help empower you to dig deeper into the roots of who you are, growing your capacity to flourish!
