Course #2 in the Parenting Through Faith Transitions bundle
By Valerie Hamaker, MA, NCC, LPC, CPT

In this webinar, Valerie will dive deep into the differences between a “one pillar” and a “multiple pillar” relationship with life.  She will cover the following: 

  • A definition of a “one pillar” versus a “multiple pillar” orientation to family life 
  • In-depth exploration of eight topics to consider as you assess whether you are a “one pillar” or “multiple pillar” family 
  • These topics include (but are not limited to) narrow versus broad worldview, relationship to life choices, relationship to performance pressure, relationship to guilt versus peace 
  • Personal assessment to think about your own childhood and how your own family of origin was oriented regarding “single” or “multiple” pillar life orientation 

Following this course you will: 

  • Be able to better conceptualize how broad or narrow your mindset is as a family regarding multiple areas of psychological significance
  • Be better able to trace some of your tendencies back to your childhood homes 
  • Have conversation-starters regarding differences in your childhood homes regarding orientation on the given topics 
  • Have some direction on how you might want to transition away from being “single pillar” families towards becoming “multiple pillar” families

You’re not behind or doing it wrong if you’re the only one engaging—this work begins with you, and that’s more than enough.
