How much time commitment is required to participate in Be the Woman...?
How much time you commit is entirely up to you. Of course the more you put in, the more benefits you'll experience; however, we've structured the course using the internet and other simple technologies to allow you participate on your terms and timeframe. All the material can come come with you on your daily commute or while you do other activities (the gym, household chores, travelling) If you miss a day, then you just pick up again where you left off when you next have the time.
You can interact, if you choose, with the other women of Be the Woman... through [our private online community] anytime you have access to a computer and the internet.
The course part of Be the Woman... Course & Online Community lasts 42-days. Each day you'll receive an email with a link to your daily audio message which ranges from 3-10 minutes. There's also a short audio assignment for the day. These are simple and easy to fit into your schedule.
Each week you'll receive a longer audio podcast which lasts about 75 minutes to listen to whenever you have the time during the week.
Each week there is also an assignment introduced with a short video (2-3 minutes). These assignments are a bit longer than the daily ones but are designed to incorporate naturally into your schedule and lifestyle.
There's no minimum requirement for the Inner Circle online community, but you may find time tends to go by quickly once you get started...

Where and when is the course being held?
Whenever and wherever you want!
Once you join you'll immediately be invited to join our private online community. You can then begin the 42 day course whenever you choose.
All the audio content is downloadable and there are written PDF transcripts to print so you can take it with you and go through the material at a pace and place that's most convenient to you.
Some of our women enjoyed listening to the daily audio in the morning before they began their day. Other's read the material on their morning train ride. If you miss a couple days you can just pick up where you left off. The [Inner Circle online community] has women at all stages of the course so you'll always have company no matter where you are at.
My goal is to simplify and improve your life. We're doing everything possible to ensure the course fits with your life and not the other way around.

What kind of things will I learn during the 42-day course?
You'll learn lots of things which really make sense because they are common sense, it's just that common sense isn't very common any more. You'll learn about diet, exercise, beauty, moods and emotions, relationships, strategies to get things accomplished... and that's just the beginning. You'll learn ways which allow you to feel better living your life.
The course is structured in such a way that it won't really feel like learning, more like being inspired and absorbing knowledge. You'll feel connected to a network of other women who face similar issues that you do, and by receiving daily encouragement from me you'll learn how to put it all into practice. In addition, there are bonuses, videos and audio to bring another dimension to the process.
You can read more about the course content here and about the details of what you'll receive on the page Taking Part.

Is Be the Woman… some new "technique"? Where does the information come from?
There are many self-help and personal development course out there that centre around some newly invented technique. Be the Woman... is not one of them. The information in Be the Woman You were Born to Be... is based on ancient (and often long forgotten) wisdoms distilled through the modern practical experience of roles I've played in the home, office, society, as a student, a business owner and a teacher. Often it will seem like common sense, because it is, it's just that common sense is no longer so common.
It is no single technique, but an entire outlook on life as a women with a set of tools, skills and perspectives you can use to navigate the obstacles you encounter successfully so you can live the life of your dreams.
The information in Be the Woman... has proved itself time and time again in my life and the lives of the women I've taught. Listen to feedback from other women about what they have experienced here.

Do I have to share personal information with people?
Be the Woman... does not ask you to share any information with anyone if you are not comfortable doing so.

If you do participate, there is no requirement to share any of your personal details including even your real name.
If you do decide to share your experiences with the other women of Be the Woman... you'll find our online community, the Inner Circle, to be an open and friendly place where you'll always find someone who has gone through a similar challenge and who is willing to share her unbiased advice.

What if I can't afford to pay for the course?
We don't want the price in the Be the Woman... Course & Online Community to be an inhibiting factor for those who wish to join. However, we do believe that one gets out of something what she is willing to put in it. Thus, we've created an option for women who are unable to afford the membership...
It's called our "Friends Programme" and it allows you to attend for free or even get paid to attend when you inspire other women - friends, family, colleges, or otherwise - to join with you.
Read about it here. When you join Be the Woman... you automatically become a member, but if you wish to join beforehand, for example to offset the cost of your membership, please contact us and we will set you up with the tools you need...

Will I be 'pressured' to quit my job, leave my husband/boyfriend or give up my current life?
You won't be coerced to do anything other than to take a look at your life from a different perspective.
Sometimes this causes people to reconsider some of the choices they've made, but more often the solution is to learn to engage in your life more as it.
Regardless, you won't be pressured to do anything. You are the one responsible for your life and therefore you have the power to make it the life of your dreams.

Will I have a chance to ask questions?
You will be able to ask questions through our private online community Inner Circle at any time.
I am at your disposal to guide you through this transformational process. Moreover, from my experience as a teacher and mentor, the act of putting something in writing consolidates the thoughts and often helps you get a better grasp on what the issues are you are struggling with. This is one reason why we will harness social interaction technology on the internet.

Where did the name "Guru Kaur" come from?
A very common question... "Gu" means darkness and "Ru" means light. A "Guru" is someone who leads and guides people from the darkness of confusion and frustration into the light of clarity and understanding. "Kaur" is the name given to all Sikh women. It means Princess. It encourages us all to recognise that all women want to be treated with respect and therefore to be respectful... Read more on Guru Kaur's blog here

My life isn’t so bad… why should I sign up for Be The Woman You Were Born to Be... Course & Online Community.
Because happiness is your birthright. And NOT the reasonably-content-and-usually-upbeat-nothing-too-bad-compared-to-others mediocrity, BUT the my-goodness-i-am-soooo-glad-to-be-alive- I-CAN'T-WAIT-to-start-my-day-today-its-going-to-be-so-magical- and-exciting HAPPINESS, CONTENTMENT, and FULFILMENT that we, as humans here on earth, are all meant to be experiencing.
If you really feel that you have everything you could possibly imagine and it's not because you don't dare to imagine anything truly exciting, then sign up for the course anyway, request your refund after 29-days and if it's really true, I'll invite you to teach on the next module...deal?
