Bring Assertiveness to your team or group.

As adults, it is easy to think we have learned everything we need to know about communication. Yet, it is the biggest stressor in the workplace and at home.

“I can honestly say that Corie Weathers is one of the best speakers and trainers of family-building, spouse-strengthening and leader developing instruction in my lifetime. She not only brings the data mined from years of research and collaboration but employs an ability to convey it with empathy and compassion for her learners.”

“Your assertiveness training is AMAZING. Your lessons on this through ESR helped me move to the sweet spot of assertive communication instead of veering between passive-aggressive and right-out-aggressive with my spouse. Highly recommend this to EVERYONE.”
