If you are ready to start Planning NOW for a family crisis...

(While you can still mitigate risk, by creating a system to help protect your freedom, lifestyle and give you the best "running start" position to be able to control your life when a family crisis lands...)

THEN it's time to consider enrolling in Crisis-Coaching.com's unique "Crisis Planning and Training" Continuing Education Course!

AND

You should do this whether you are just out of high school or college, early in your career (with lots of questions and challenges), or an experienced professional in your field seeking as much information as possible so your life doesn't get totally sidetracked and off course when the crisis lands!

 

The "Problem" with Waiting Until the Crisis Happens

Do you find it easier to create a list under extreme emotional, mental and physical pressure - or update a list that you have?

How much time will you have "after work hours" during a crisis  - and before you leave to go manage it"? Do you have time to think of EVERYTHING you need to do, do as much as you can in advance from a cold "start-up"?

How clearly can you think when you are "sleep deprived" and "exhausted"?

How much money do you need at some surprise future date  - will you have enough?

Will you have all your assets legally protected  if you wait?

Will you know what questions to ask? Who to call? Who knows 'what'?

Can you be the strong leader among your siblings or family members? Can you help maintain the "calm" and "peace" among siblings or other family members who are emotionally distraught? If you know more "what to do" and "how" you can help keep a forward positive all-bases-covered momentum.

What if you are the only child? OR the only available child? In a rush - can you get help? A lot of help?

CAN YOU AFFORD TO WAIT  - and

"just hope it all falls into place?

 

 

By training NOW, you can have the information sink in FASTER, because your brain is clearer - you are thinking more clearly. You can carry it out FASTER, too. You can have a 'running head start'!  You will know where to start when the time comes that you need the information.

No longer will you be the future lost and alone "soldier" doomed to take on this "battle" of Caregiving in the information jungle, alone. You will have resources.

More analogies: you will be the "fire-person who already knows how to fight fires"; the "surgeon who has already trained to do surgery", the "search and rescue pilot" who already knows how to fly the plane and work with rescuers". You already will know the systems in play and be able to navigate much more smoothly.

 

 

So - Let's Look at Your Other Possibilities.

Most people grossly under-rate their ability to learn new subjects quickly. If this is for you - as a business professional - you know how to read, and you know how to look "stuff" up. Most of our planning and training is understanding the material - not memorizing it. You just need to be able to look it up when you need it - and use the spreadsheet templates  - when you need these. This is based on "keeping things simple" - giving you a script, so to speak, to follow.

From our Crisis-Coaching.com and our Members - you may find we have answers you need now, or we have strategies that you can use now or in the near future. You may have answers or strategies someone else can learn.

The first thing Crisis-Coaching.com is going to help you with is to create a strategic plan by setting up  a "working life file system".  This will help protect the assets you have NOW.

You might think " I know THAT already." Maybe you do - and what if by checking our list and system against what you already have, you discover you might want to change how you set something up, or add to, or take out something? 

I've structured everything so that by the end of the first month, you can have your new training implemented and "installed" - - a framework built - so that after that we are just "hanging information on that framework".

I've deliberately systemized every aspect of my planning and training program for you so that you have a "running start" on things like: ObamaCare fine print, Medicare Rules and Penalties, caregiving issues (like accessing social services and federal programs), how hospital "systems" work, skilled nursing short-term and long-term care, hospice, home nonprofit and federal grants, loans and mortgage products (like reverse mortgages), legal, accounting, insurance, estate planning, end-of-life expenses, Veterans benefits for the living and for widowed spouses, and the list goes on...

First two weeks of every module...

What I'm doing for you in the first two weeks of each module (4-6 weeks apart depending on the size of the previous module) is essentially helping you to "install" or "hang" the new information on you "system".

The goal here - - I'm making it EASY for you to get up to speed - then stay current. When you do need a lawyer, accountant, estate planner, or insurance agent, you can save time and money because you will walk in ORGANIZED! You will have your personal facts straight and be able to present your situation clearly - or at least much clearer.

EASY!

Let me do all the heavy lifting for you - -  While you work, I can track the news for "breaking news" stories that could impact you, do the research, book writing, information posting, all the creating of templates you can use, all the organizing webinars interviewing industry professionals   - and I can do this much faster for you, then you can most likely - because I have a "running start" at it - I've been doing this 14-1/2+ years.  I have backroom phone numbers and contact names in many cases.  I've gotten pretty good at creating fast results because I know where to go look and who to call to find out stuff. You would be left to be dealing with IVR phone trees, then left on-hold a long time before speaking to a front-line customer service person - many times  not based in the United States, or Canada.

Just imagine how much easier your life will be - and much easier you can sleep - once you know you have this Crisis-Coaching.com Planning and Training System in place! It's an ongoing continuous education - it rolls forward "with" you.

Just think how much better TRAINED you will be than your friends, colleagues and other family members are - and you can invite them to join you in this RISK MITIGATING Journey!

OR - if you have an interest in training to be a Trainer, let us know!

I'm confident my stuff "works".  My program is well researched. I was in the trenches researching this - I had my father's life on the line. Other times in the past, I had other people's lives or quality of life on the line. My meetings in person or by phone with industry professionals (legal, insurance, accounting, tax, NGOs, social services, healthcare facilities, hospital patient reps, Attorneys General and Ombudsmen, due diligence search firms, courthouse records and probate, court transcribers, national and state/ provincial government offices, immigration and customs, VA and VA - Canada, and more) started in 1998 and is continuous to present day.

I know if we work together, you will be really so happy with the results you get from the knowledge you gain - my Program will help you sleep better at night!

Over the past 14-1/2 years I have helped thousands of people directly, and through helping family members of our nonprofit members. That's one reason I was sought out to consult on pending disability legislation for provincial legislature in Canada, and before that I was sought out to consult on the interpretation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

The time is NOW to set your goals for your next life cycle. This way we're always moving forward. Growing. This is about protecting your freedom, your immediate family's freedom and relationships - and not at the "expense" of caring for aging parents and siblings. This is about helping more people and having more fun.

AND - to mix metaphors a bit and borrow a training line from air travel - - "We are going to put the oxygen mask on YOU first - protect YOU so that you are "available" when needed to help your loved ones.

 

The Alternative?

Do it the harder way, "on your own",  mustering through, and practice on one of your loved ones first -  so you can really help the next one in crisis. Risk losing your career or job. Risk losing your savings and investments. Risk losing your inheritance. Good idea? Not...! You have a better option!

Reality:

I want to put in your hands  - what I so desperately needed when I started out!

I needed a system, an understanding of "how things worked", and a reference book.

I needed to know not only who to call - but also what to ask. Sometimes when you are dead-tired and exhausted, you just need someone to help you figure out the questions. So many times at the beginning, my head just felt "heavy", overwhelmed, easily losing my train of thought - having to learn so much so fast as it was a crisis.

Instead - picture yourself sleeping at night, peacefully. When you do get "the call" - instead of panicking - you can just listen fully present. You go into mental -mode - you know what you need to do next. Then know you can go to your file cabinet, or desk drawer and pull out a thumb drive with our information - or maybe you put it in a Cloud.

The point is: You have the structure and system of information in place - you can focus on getting packed, making coffee for yourself, getting ready and dressed, arranging for airline tickets, making the work-related calls and possibly arranging for a sitter or pet care...BUT you won't likely be panicked because the hard part is already done. You can review your system during the air-flight.

Likely, you won't be panicked or "frozen" with fear.  You are fully trained and prepared with information. You can always check in if you need an update on something - or some input.

 

I'm not a jerk who can build a website then run off with your money. I'd rather give it back to you, if I can't help you.

 

I take "what I do" very seriously. When I started out at age 31, and I couldn't help save my Mom  - it took her 17 days to die - and I tried so hard to save her life ...she was caught up in a web of hospital red tape - I went to media, seniors rights groups, everywhere I could think of. I vowed then I would help anyone that I could to help save the life of their loved one.

My community work with Tiger's Eye Society is well-known. We had a Hotline. I  ran community training and support groups, and I created community strategic partnerships between businesses and community needs to help improve quality of life and create solutions that government couldn't move on quickly.  I've been a long-distance caregiver twice - to both parents, once was while living out of country. I was the American in Canada, with the father living in the States. With my Mom, I was in California and she was back east. 

Okay. So You Want to Know My Academic Qualifications.

In case you are curious - I have my Masters degrees in International Finance, and my PhD work in Human Behavior - Leadership in the Organization. I have post-graduate studies in Research Methodology, Statistics. Economics, and Film. I was a professional research writer, legislation analyst, keynote speaker and community trainer over 18 years when  my Father's crisis landed in 2008. (It resurfaced in 2010). Actually, I left out a "qualification" in my explaining things above. I was licensed as a private investigator. I mostly took the Witness statements on personal injury cases - usually for vehicle collisions, and the occasional pedestrian collision, animal attack, or 'fight'. The type of consulting work I was doing already, this service supported clients I already had.

I believe I am the "real deal". I am tracking news stories for you almost daily, rare exceptions that I don't catch the news. (I've been tracking news since 1993 and was featured as a guest "Futurist" on television in Canada.) Many days I have national broadcasts on over 8 hours per day. I research and write daily. My schedule is to continue to update the training modules and to keep the blog current and library refreshed. This is not a book you will see published several years ago  and the years go by without update or  reprints. This is a LIVE website -  it is rolling forward continuing education.

In all my market research - I didn't find anything aimed at protecting and supporting adult only children, business professionals living out of area from parents, or cross-border, or that was a "live" active system across multiple marketing platforms offering a forum and (soon) WIKI, and training modules on this topic.

My stand: It is TIME FOR TRANSPARENCY.

We need a national dialogue on aging and care.

It's an illusion, a dream, to sell seniors and elderly on "aging in place". It works for so few! They either cannot do it for health reasons, or they lack the availability of family members or friends who can move in and be their support system, and do direct care. Many times adult children no longer live near parents. More adult children today hold down more than one job, or travel.

SO - who is going to be the support system for the senior or elderly person in their home, doing the let's-face-it "dirty work" (cleaning their place and keeping them clean) - who is going to do that?

We need to start  planning and training for the crisis call.We need to start talking about this! Why do so few Caregivers or estate settlers talk about how much there is to understand UNLESS you come at it with a "running start"?

That perfect storm - with the lightning bolt - it's here! Not enough care-workers, not enough adult children to take care of seniors and elderly, lower paid wages and people working more than one job to pay bills, or taking jobs in better paying markets, or traveling.

We have to FIX THIS! And in the meantime, train for the inevitable!

SO - "How much???"

This is an Introductory rate. These are for the first class.

Once these "seats are full" - this rate will not continue to be offered for this class. 

This is NOT an 'endless enrollment'  -- I need to know whoever has enrolled, if you have something serious come up that isn't addressed in the training, that I, or one of my team, may be able to help you with further research, or direct you where to go to get a breakthrough. The best way to do that is to have a cut-off on enrollment for each class going through. 

In Summary -

Who This Program is For:

This program is designed primarily for business professionals, who would really take a serious career or job "hit" if they had to leave their jobs for an extended period to manage a Caregiver, Power of Attorney, or Estate Planning or Settlement issue. 

This is about helping you protect your loved, one AND helping protect you and your lifestyle, family relationships.

This Program is especially for you if you live out-of-state/ province or country from  where your aging relatives are located.

GOAL

• Find the fun in learning a complex emotionally challenge topic  - by learning it early and often - to help protect your freedom, mitigate your risk, and help you stay in control when you are needed most during a crisis - You can be that "trained voice of reason" for other family members who are emotionally distraught

• I shared with you how I trained in this - first with my Mother, then Father's situation, and  founding two nonprofits and being on the Board of Directors for ten years assisting people with disabilities and caregivers. I shared how I helped design a Hotline program and also helped create community programs that solved problems government couldn't fix fast enough.

• I shared how I was sought out to consult on pending Bills addressing needs of people with disabilities and the interpretation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

• Crisis-Coaching.com Crisis Planning and Training program is based on not only my research and analysis, and news monitoring, but also on interviewing industry professionals.
