Both apprentices and program facilitators hold distinct expectations within the Sex & Happiness Apprentice Program™. As an apprentice, you're committing to a 10-month journey that moves between focused self-study and live, in-the-room practicum work. You'll meet monthly with your pod and your coaches, show up for live practicum calls, and attend Laurie's monthly office hours. Because so much of this program is self-directed, you'll need to bring real ownership to your own learning. Along the way, you'll give a presentation to your cohort and design a Capstone Project you'll lead and enroll people into — culminating in your certification as a Sex & Happiness Coach and Facilitator.
Program facilitators are committed to delivering this curriculum in full, mentoring you through your growth, and giving you the tools to build confidence, presence, and skill as a coach and facilitator. In turn, we're looking for apprentices who are motivated, self-directed, devoted to their own growth, and open to discussing sensitive subjects honestly — people willing to overcome past resistance, embrace the coaching and facilitation role, and envision a future shaped by this work.
