Why is the course needed?

Lots of women are hurt badly in relationships.  This impacts them and their children dramatically and in long-lasting ways.  The Own My Life Course helps women to make sense of what has been done to them and gives them the skills to move forward.  The course helps women to discover what their strengths are and how they can move forward with their lives.

Course Delivery & Content

The 12 week programme is designed to be interactive, with lots of short videos, quizzes and discussion.  The course uses multimedia content to explain complex concepts about trauma and abuse in easy-to-understand video clips, along with videos that explore themes such as disrespect in relationships, abusive behaviour, sexism and misogyny.

The course explores how women can regain ownership of their lives including owning our mind, body, choices, relationships, world, feelings.

The Own My Story journal provides women with space for reflective practice, and includes all the information provided throughout the course.  This becomes an ongoing resource for women after the course has finished.
