SUMMARY:Nobody's Immune - a webinar with Kathy Mellor
DESCRIPTION:9 AM Mountain Time \nPerhaps you found yourself completely shocked when you learned that Charlie Kirk’s assassin came from a good\, conservative home with parents that gave him every opportunity. Kathy Mellor definitely was\, so much so that she’s coming out of retirement to try and make a difference in our LEMI family. You can read her thoughts HERE. \nIn this webinar\, Kathy will be discussing the lessons gleaned from watching young adults go into the world unprepared to meet Wokeism. Even the ones who studied Marxism\, didn’t actually recognize it when they came face to face with it. Or they were swayed by the Postmodernist sheen that’ has been liberally painted on it. \nYou may feel like your family is immune to the complete radicalization that has happened to so many of today’s young adults. Perhaps they are\, it is definitely possible\, but it’s not likely. It’s not a matter of effort\, it’s not a matter of not loving them enough\, and it’s not a matter of indifference or negligence. The deficit most likely exists because we didn’t teach them specifically the roots of this worldview and the natural ends of aligning with it.  \nIf we are going to amplify Charlie’s message of conservative values\, freedom of speech\, and aligning ourselves with God\, we must do something different. You will walk away with specific actions you can take (today!) in your family to increase the level of critical thinking and foster a greater awareness of the manipulation which is rampant across our colleges and institutions. \n\n

Or wondered why the same approach produces completely different results in different homes? The answer often lies in something most of us never think about: forms. Forms are the structures and systems that produce outcomes—whether in government\, family\, community\, or education. They’re the underlying frameworks that shape what actually happens: how your family makes decisions\, how your household runs\, how learning unfolds\, how conflicts get resolved. Here’s the powerful insight: when you recognize the forms at work\, you can understand why you’re getting certain results. And when you don’t like those results? You can change them by changing your forms. \nIn this webinar\, Olivia will help you see the forms currently operating in your life (even the invisible ones)\, understand how different structures produce different outcomes\, and learn to design forms that align with the principles you actually value.  Join us and discover how recognizing—and redesigning—your forms can transform the outcomes you’re seeing in every area of life. \nREGISTER TODAY\n \nCan’t make it to the live event?  Access to the recordings for this year’s webinars\, as well as others\, is available for purchase HERE.

SUMMARY:Seeing the Genius Hidden in Plain Sight with Heidi Christianson
DESCRIPTION:THURSDAY\, JANUARY 15TH\, 6 PM MST FREE WEBINAR – REGISTRATION REQUIRED \nYou look at your child and you know—deep down—there’s something special there. \nMaybe they don’t fit the mold. Maybe they struggle with things that come easily to other kids. Maybe they’re “behind” on paper but brilliant in ways the tests don’t measure. \nOr maybe they’re doing fine academically\, but you can’t shake the feeling that something essential is being missed. \nHere’s what you might not know: Every person you’ve ever met is a genius. \nNot that they excel at everything. But that each child has God-given gifts woven into the fabric of who they are—gifts the world desperately needs. \nThe problem? Most of us can’t see it. We’ve been trained to look for genius in all the wrong places. We judge fish by their ability to climb trees. We measure gardens by whether every plant looks the same. \nWhat if you could learn to see differently? \nIn this free webinar\, you’ll discover: \n\nWhat genius actually means—not IQ scores\, but the spiritual fingerprint that makes each person unique\nThe Genius-Season-Work-Mission framework—a simple way to understand how individual potential unfolds across a lifetime\nWhy genius often hides—and how to recognize it beneath struggle\, “behavior problems\,” or environments that fail to value it\nHow to create conditions where genius can emerge—from simplifying to allow focus to building systems that honor individual differences\nThe liberation this brings—for students (who can trust the process) and mentors (who can stop trying to create something and start nurturing what’s already there)\n\nThis webinar is perfect for you if: \n\nYou have a child who doesn’t fit the conventional mold\nYou want to shift from standardized approaches to truly individualized mentoring\nYou’re struggling with a child who seems stuck or disconnected from learning\nYou’ve chosen homeschooling to honor your child’s uniqueness—but you’re not sure how to actually do that\nYou want to understand how to mentor different children differently without losing your mind\n\nAfterward\, you’ll walk away with: \n\nNew eyes—you’ll see your children differently\, recognizing genius where you previously saw struggle\nA framework you can use immediately—bringing clarity to decisions about what your child needs right now\nFreedom from comparison—understanding that your child isn’t behind or ahead\nPractical tools—specific questions to ask and ways to observe\nHope—knowing you’re not creating something from nothing\, but helping unfold what’s already beautifully designed\n\nJoin us Thursday\, January 16th\, and learn to see the genius that’s been there all along. \nREGISTER TODAY!\n \nHeidi Christianson is co-author of The Learning Zone and Director of Operations of LEMI (Leadership Education Mentoring Institute). She loves helping families understand what Leadership Education really is—and watching it transform how they see their children and themselves. \nCan’t make it to the live event?  Access to the recordings for this year’s webinars\, as well as others\, is available for purchase HERE.

SUMMARY:Battling the Belt: Keeping the Conveyor  Belt Mentality out of our LEMI Projects & Leadership Education with Leslie Leonard
DESCRIPTION:JANUARY 24TH\, 9 AM MST FREE WEBINAR – REGISTRATION REQUIRED \nYou chose Leadership Education for a reason. Maybe you were tired of the assembly-line approach to learning. Maybe you wanted something that honored your child’s unique genius. Maybe you saw the promise of mentoring over teaching\, of becoming over just knowing. \nBut here’s what nobody tells you: the conveyor belt mentality is sneaky. It creeps back in when you’re not looking—even in the middle of LEMI projects\, even when you know better. Suddenly you’re comparing your child’s progress to everyone else’s. You’re focused on completion instead of transformation. You’re checking boxes instead of cultivating growth. \nThe conveyor belt trained us well\, and its habits die hard. In this webinar\, Leslie will help you recognize when the old mindset is taking over (even in small ways)\, understand what Leadership Education actually looks like in practice versus what the conveyor belt tells us it should look like\, and learn practical ways to stay true to mentoring principles when everything around you pulls toward standardization and comparison. Whether you’re working through LEMI projects with your students or simply trying to keep your Leadership Education vision clear in a world obsessed with grades and benchmarks\, this session will help you identify the conveyor belt thinking that undermines your best intentions—and give you tools to choose a different path. Join us and reclaim the freedom and transformation that drew you to Leadership Education in the first place. \nREGISTER TODAY\n \nCan’t make it to the live event?  Access to the recordings for this year’s webinars\, as well as others\, is available for purchase HERE.

SUMMARY:Principles That Change Homes with Nancy Jex
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, March 21st\, 9 am MDT \nEvery parent who is paying attention wonders at some point: Am I doing this right? \nNot out of self-doubt\, but out of deep love. You care about your children and you want to be sure that what you’re doing is actually working — that the effort and sacrifice of educating them at home is shaping them into the people they were meant to become. \nFamily Foundations doesn’t answer that question with a checklist. It offers something better: a framework for seeing — your children\, yourself\, and the work you’re already doing — with greater clarity and confidence. \nIn this one-hour webinar\, Nancy Jex will walk you through three of the core principles at the heart of Family Foundations\, including why every child is a genius\, how understanding developmental phases can transform your relationship with your children\, and why your own growth as a parent matters more than any curriculum you will ever choose. \nYou won’t just hear about these principles — you’ll experience a taste of the Family Foundations learning environment firsthand. \nWhether you’re curious about bringing Family Foundations to your community or simply looking for fresh inspiration in the work of educating your family\, this webinar is for you. \nCome ready to think\, to share\, and to be reminded that what you are doing matters. \nRegister today. Your families are worth it.

DESCRIPTION:FREE WEBINAR\, THURSDAY\, APRIL 9TH\, AT 6 PM MDT \n\n\nWeek After Week: The Same Excuses \n\n\n\n\nElaborate explanations. Half-finished work. Resistance dressed up as reasons. \n\n\n\n\nYou’ve tried consequences. You’ve tried rewards. You’ve tried different materials\, stricter deadlines\, and motivational speeches. \n\n\n\n\nNothing’s working. \n\n\n\n\nHere’s why: You’re pushing when you should be inviting. You’re trying to control outcomes when you should be creating conditions for ownership. \n\n\n\n\nIn this transformative webinar\, discover: \n\nWhy coercion creates compliance but invitation creates transformation\nThe four-stage progression that moves students from “I have to” to “I want to”\nHow to inspire without manipulating\, invite without demanding\nThe sacred cycle that builds integrity—not just academic success\n\n\n\n\n\nYou’ll learn: \n\nWhat to do when students resist (hint: it’s not push harder)\nThe difference between commitment you force and commitment they choose\nWhy reporting back only works when students have genuine ownership\nHow each cycle through this progression develops the ability to keep their word\n\n\n\n\n\nStop exhausting yourself trying to make students do the work. \n\n\n\n\nLearn to create the conditions where they WANT to do the work—because they’ve chosen it\, because it matters to them\, because they’re becoming someone who keeps commitments. \n\n\n\n\nBecause integrity can’t be forced. It can only be forged through agency. \n\n\n\n\nYour students are waiting to own their learning. Are you ready to let them? \nREGISTER TODAY!\n\n\n \nHeidi Christianson is co-author of The Learning Zone and Director of Operations of LEMI (Leadership Education Mentoring Institute).
