Your Life.

You spent a long time just getting through. This December, sit down and plan the year you actually want: all 12 areas of your life, on paper, with a group of people doing the same thing.
Then spend 2027 living that plan, one month and one category at a time.

YOUR NEXT CHAPTER
The hard part is behind you.
What comes next is yours.
This is for you if…
Men and women are both welcome.
- The divorce, the breakup or the betrayal is behind you (or mostly behind you), and you keep asking yourself, “Okay. Now what?”
- You set goals every January and by March you can’t remember what they were.
- One part of your life gets all your attention while the rest slowly falls apart.
- You want structure, and people around you who will notice if you disappear.
- You’re done building your life around someone else’s plan.
A PLAN. A PRACTICE. YOUR PEOPLE.
Two parts. One year.

Four weeks, 2 hours a week. We go through all 12 categories of your life and you leave with a written plan for 2027.

Every month we take one category from your plan and go deep. You plan it, learn about it, read about it, talk it through with the group and act on it.
Keep showing up for yourself.PHASE 1 · THE FOUNDATION

YOUR MENTOR, AND A WORK IN PROGRESS TOO
Hi, I’m Olga.
I’m a biochemist, and I’ve been a college professor since 2009. I’m also a healing and empowerment mentor, the author of Unbreakable You, the founder of Exceed Learning Center, and a single mom of three.
I work with men and women going through heartbreak, divorce and betrayal. Healing is the first part. At some point you have to decide what you’re building next, and that’s what this program is for.
I plan my own year with this exact framework, one category at a time.
A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING
Let’s make
it clear.
Do I have to do both parts?
Design Your Year comes first, because the monthly program works from the plan you write in December. After that, continuing monthly is your choice.
Is this only for people going through a divorce or breakup?
No. It works for anyone who wants a planned year instead of a random one. A lot of people find me after a breakup or divorce, because that’s often when they realize they have to rebuild their life from scratch.
Where do we meet?
In person, with Zoom for anyone who can’t be there. Olga’s team will share the meeting location and session times when following up on your enrollment request.
How much time does it take?
In December, 2 hours a week plus a little writing at home. During the year, plan on the kickoff, the workshop, the book club meeting, your 30-minute session with me, and a book to read each month.
What if I miss a session?
Tell me ahead of time and we’ll make sure you catch up.
What’s an accountability partner?
Another person in the group. You check in with each other during the month on what you said you’d do. It’s simple, and it works better than willpower.
MAKE SPACE FOR YOURSELF
Your next chapter
starts with a choice.
Tell me a little about yourself and where you’d like to begin. Then continue to secure checkout to reserve your December place.
