What is the Own My Life Course?

The Own My Life course is an innovative, creative and educational 12-week course.  It can be delivered online or in-person.  The course explains complex concepts in easy to understand terms. 

The course uses multimedia content to explain complex concepts about trauma and abuse in easy to understand video clips, along with videos which evidence how popular culture reinforces or perpetuates:

• Sexism.

• Rape culture.

• Violence.

• Misogyny.

• Disrespect in relationships.

• Abusive behaviour.

The format for each sessions include six key elements:

• Own my Mind
• Own my Body
• Own my Choices
• Own my Relationships
• Own My World
• Own My feelings

By the end of the course, women will have a clear plan for their future and the confidence to make it happen. They will be part of a supportive community of women who are all working towards their own personal growth and success.

Each session lasts approx 75 minutes and is once a week for 12 weeks.  For more information on this course or if you would like to put forward your interest to attend this course then please call 01236 432061 or email info@monklandswomensaid.org.uk
