What do you leave with? 
The training helps parents and mentors to create a healthy environment where it is safe for the young person to birth  "the real me", the soul self, that brings meaning and purpose to his or her life.
Empowering communication will take on a whole new meaning. You will be relieved and excited about the new adult relationship these skills will bring to you and your adult child.

You will understand why and how to formally end childhood and encourage "the heros journey" that births solid leaders for future generations.
You will feel much more confident about "letting go" of your adult child.  You may still have fears but they will not cause you to stall a healthy launch.
You will discover how much fun this new parenting role will be for you personally. It will free you up to be an adult worth emulating, but it may radically change your life.
Some tips about how to do midlife well.
