Academy Members receive the pre-recorded Roadmap to Conscious Lesbian Dating & Lasting Love class, plus live weekly Roadmap Connection Groups! >>Sign up for Academy membership here.
Here's how Roadmap Connection Groups Work:
Each Friday, members are sent a 90-minute video class from the CGA archives covering the topic for the next week, along with the suggested reading from the Conscious Lesbian Dating & Love book (CLDL), which is also posted below. It's helpful to watch the video and read the chapter before our Tuesday gathering, though you are still welcome to attend if you haven't. The Tuesday gatherings help you deepen your learning through both large-group discussion, and small groups to help you apply the concepts to your own life -- while meeting like-minded women.
You may join the Academy at any time, since all of the Roadmap skills are related.
