380: The Difference Between the Why to Heal vs. the HOW to Heal with FBPP Student Maria

I loved this episode with Maria so much. It speaks to your SOUL, that's just how Maria is. At the end of the episode, I ask Maria about why taking FBPP was different than listening to the podcast, which she has been listening since the VERY beginning, since 2017!   You'll have to listen in to hear Maria's answer, but one of the things her answer made me reflect on is the why behind why I transitioned the program (from when it was formally called Permission Stage Playbook) from an online course to instead a cohort style, group coaching program where we only enroll 3-4 times a year with a limited amount of students each enrollment period.   My why is because I care, deeply. I don't want you to take an online course to absorb 15% of it, and apply absolutely nothing. I want you to go through the material, participate in the support group, show up for the group calls and actually create change in your life!   Our last round of FBPP in the spring had a 84% completion of course material. To compare this, I found a study from 2018 that shared the average completion rate of online courses was 15%! That's not even measuring the group coaching component of the program, which is the most highly rated part of the program.   In this episode we also discuss the differences between WHY to change versus HOW to change.
