Cancer Strengths Training is our unique approach, utilizing a scientifically proven Strengths Finding methodology to identify the natural strengths of you and your team (and lesser strengths!) so that you can focus your limited energy on maximizing results by learning about the key strengths that come to you naturally, while activating those in your support team to meet your other needs. 

Imagine using the wrong tool to accomplish a job -- You could dig a hole with a pen, but if you also have a shovel, you should choose it to do the same task. If you have neither, know who on your team has it, and who you can REALLY depend on for certain things. Everyone can play a role, but you need the right people in the right roles. 

This is not a substitute for therapy, but will amplify the results you get from therapy as you know yourself at a much higher level. Many clients are referred from therapists.  We believe that this is a key component of your team as you move forward. 

Sorry to hear that you are not getting the support you feel you need. Part of what you will undertstand when you complete this process with your support team, is what areas your partner CAN help in, and where they are naturally gifted to offer support. When you slot your partner into those duties, they will be happier as will you! 

Part of cancer means advocating for yourself. This should be done using the skills and strengths where you are strongest naturally. When you go through Cancer Strength Training, you will understand how you can be most effective in your daily life, and also what approaches will resonate with others who you need to influence. For work, you wil be able to advocate and speak up for your own needs perhaps more effectively than you ever have. 

Unfortunately, this is part of what everyone with a diagnosis goes through. Many of these comments start with, "You need to....(eat this, see this person, do these exercises, etc.")  Strengths training will help you understand WHY people say these things, and how you can use your strengths to counter these statements most effectively and remain unperturbed through the comments that we know are well meaning but can be hurtful.  

Energy management is one of the key challenges that women with cancer have. Chemo is an "energy vampire." By understanding your strengths, you can rapidly reorganize how you accomplish your daily goals and advocate for what you need in work, social, and family settings. 

It starts with getting our Free Package. We want to tell you more about what we do, and how it can benefit you. If that sounds like something you want to explore, we can set up a Strengths Finding Assessment for you and your team. Then, a Clifton Strengths Finder certified coach will meet with you and your support team to give you key insights into you and your team, and give you specific and actionable strategies for accomplishing your goals as you move through treatment and after.
