TAKE THEIR STORIES FOR IT …

I cannot recommend this program highly enough. As a parent of two teenage children, I have found what I have learnt on the program, so far, invaluable. Already it has drawn us closer as a family. We are better at communicating with each other and it has made us feel like a whole unit again. Our children starting secondary school, this strange couple of years we’ve all been through and outside pressures had taken their toll. Now I feel we are enjoying each other’s company so much more, sharing and appreciating each other’s strengths and joys. Plus I hope we all now feel how important we are to each other.

This course invites you and your loved ones to look at your family interactions in a new way: instead of being told what you should do, you are being seen as the experts of your life, you are invited to have a closer look at what already works and amplify that. Elfie and Tara are motivation experts: they invite you to learn in a brilliantly structured AND playful way, together with others. This course can be the beginning of a different family life where you begin to see each other in their strengths and thereby grow as a family. I love the structure of the course, the possibility to reflect, the interactions with others and last but not least the progress book. Thanks, Elfie and Tara for your heartwarming work!

Julia Kalenberg & Family, Switzerland

In clearly structured steps, Elfie & Tara invite us to take a closer look at seven aspects of our personal family story. In the “Progress Book” and on the “Family Strengths Cards”, the questions invite us to write down insights and hold on visibly the diverse strengths within our family. I am delighted by the brevity of the comprehensible, practice-oriented introductions to each sequence and the touching, inspiring stories of other families. Thank you for this empowering opportunity to share family stories with one another; to focus together on what works; to inspire each other, to live cheerful, happy family stories co-constructed with our individual family strengths, meeting our personal needs. Every family has its own full bloom splendour. You offer us the opportunity to combine them into a diverse and colourful garden.
Désirée Antonietti von Steiger & Family, Switzerland

During the course it has been beautiful to witness a coming together of a clear narrative between us as partners which we are excited to even more actively engage in with our daughter. We have a powerfully reinvigorated commitment to even navigate challenges differently. It has galvanised our existing strengths and brought our family closer together. We have really noticed the magic that has, does and can increasingly exist when we intentionally and deliberately focus our attention and interactions around each of the themes.

The Blossoming Family Online Experience is a great way to apply the solution-focused approach to your own family. It highlighted and reminded of all the resources and strengths of our family, even the most challenging members. I feel better connected with all my family members and can see how we will be able to build on that to keep enjoying our family life even through more challenging times. I feel calmer and optimistic about my family life in general. 
Camille Jeanmonod & Family, France

Tara and Elfie are such lovely and professional women, mothers and coaches. We think it is amazing the course they offer with its inspiring stories and supporting lessons. We could not stop watching and the stories keep sticking in our heads. As a beautiful unlimited resource.
