Accomplish Now What You Couldn't Before
Friday , January 11
7:00 PM – 9:00 PM

Must register by Tuesday, January 8th

Doesn't it feel great making resolutions to make sweeping changes or even small ones, that would greatly improve your health, jobs, stress level, family time, or any number of other things? New Years Resolutions can be a vitally important part for us getting what we want out of our relationships, our work and our life… if done right. But as we know from past attempts, creating a really good resolution is much more involved than just making a promise to ourselves that we will somehow be better or “magically” improve on some area. We also know that resolutions are hard to plan and often harder to stick to...

Our workshop leader, Jason Rosado, is a professional development coach and the owner of Distinctive Coaching. He helps people that are stuck, and he also knows how to help them get unstuck. The participant reviews of his workshops have been incredible!

Come join us to accomplish now what you couldn't before.

Includes: 1 hour seminar.

Cost: $17.50/Person - $35.00/Couple

Location: Silver Lake Country Club
147th Street 82nd Avenue
Orland Park

Additional Information: Please bring one or two New Year's Resolutions that you want to get to work on, or that you have been stuck with in the past.
