Dive into DNA
a live group coaching event with Diahan Southard
You can improve any skill by watching an expert in action! So dive with Diahan Southard into actual DNA case studies during our live online group coaching event.
When you register, you can submit your own DNA question for possible use as a case study. Then show up on Zoom and watch Diahan explore some of your questions in real time. It’s a lively 90 minute learning session to inspire your own DNA discoveries!
What people are saying about our Dive events
Donna J.
"This was the best Dive yet. After attending other Dive sessions, I finally wrote down each step that Diahan went through. I listened live but then went back and listened to the recording. I could start and stop and write down each step. Thank you so much! Diahan's comment was a light bulb moment for me."
Kevin T.
"I really enjoyed this Dive. It really helped me to understand the process better. Every time I watch the process, a little more of it soaks in."
Dani C.
"Dive into DNA is an excellent idea and Diahan certainly knows her stuff. I learn a little more every time I participate in one of her webinars."
What you get in the Dive into DNA event
- LIVE case studies: Real-time group coaching through REAL questions (you can submit yours!)
- 90 minutes: Just the right amount of time to be immersed, but not overwhelmed
- A recording: You’ll have two weeks to rewatch and review the event as many times as you like
- Dive Case Notes. This worksheet will help you capture the steps and apply them to your own research.
Meet Coach Hazel, your always-on Research Confidence Coach. Whenever you get stuck or wonder what to do next, Hazel helps you work through your DNA questions, step by step. No question is too basic.
Custom-built around Your DNA Guide’s methodology and course curriculum, Hazel guides you through the same reasoning process Diahan teaches. She helps you understand what you’re seeing, consider your options, and decide where to go next.
The goal goes beyond solving the question in front of you. It’s to build your confidence and skills so you can solve the next one on your own.
Your Dive registration includes 14 days of access to Coach Hazel starting November 18th. Following the access period you will have the option to continue Hazel access for a fee. Students in our courses have raved about their experience using Coach Hazel!
"I’ve been working with Coach Hazel and the process is so rewarding!
She has an amazing ability to help me see my next steps clearly, using my own research to guide the way."
-Veronica
What technical requirements are necessary?
The Dive takes place live on Zoom. You’ll need a reliable internet connection and a computer, tablet, or phone. We’ll send the Zoom link in your reminder email.
What if my question isn’t chosen?
You still get the full Dive - live and the recording - and there’s almost always something in someone else’s DNA puzzle that changes how you see your own. You’ll also have the opportunity to take your own question to Coach Hazel. For 14 days you and Coach Hazel can keep working on your research interest and questions using the learnings from the Dive.
How do I submit my question?
After you register, your confirmation email includes the link to a short form. Be sure to fill it out by Sunday, November 15 at 11:59 pm ET to be considered for the live event.
What if something comes up and I can’t attend the live event?
Go ahead and register. You’ll receive the recording for 14 days and your Dive Case Notes worksheet. Your 14 days of Coach Hazel access start on the day of the Dive whether or not you’re there live, so you can bring your own question to her afterward. (But do come live if you can.)
What happens when my Coach Hazel access ends?
You can choose to keep going! After your 14 days, you can continue with Coach Hazel at a substantial discount, because you’re a Dive attendee and your access is already active. Hazel is trained on my methods and remembers the research goal you’re working on. Think of the Dive as me showing you how, and Hazel as the coach who stays with you while you do it on your own tree. Nothing will be charged automatically. You choose whether you want to continue or not.
What is the refund policy for this event?
Due to the low cost of this event and the recording provided for those who can’t attend, there are no refunds.
