Shine Women

ShineWomen is a unique personal development and group mentoring programme that uses an inspirational, practical and experiential approach to learning.  This program is founded on the premise that every life counts and has intrinsic value, and fosters an awareness of this belief.  

Aim

For each woman to develop an understanding of her own personal worth, strength and purpose and realise the potential within her to fulfil her dreams.

Objectives

Equip women to:

  • Identify themselves as valuable with much to contribute
  • Build confidence, self-esteem, and self-worth
  • Develop respect and boundaries in relationships
  • Understand they are able to have a positive influence in their world
  • Identify personal desires and strengths to motivate them to set and achieve personal goals

These objectives are achieved through three foundational concepts Worth. Strength. Purpose.

 I have Worth!

‘Body and Soul, I am Wonderfully Made’

The concept of worth explores that all Women are valuable, being one of a kind is beautiful and our wonderfully made bodies deserves to be treated well.

 I have Strength!

‘Choose Life’

These sessions explore the power of choice and the power that decisions have on shaping a person's future.  This is addressed through practical sessions about feelings, convictions, boundaries and respect.

I have Purpose!

‘I have a Hope and a Future’

Purpose is examined through exploring personal hopes, dreams and desires.  Goal setting, discussions on potential, talents and practical activities are used to equip and build confidence to live out a purpose-filled adventurous life!

How does ShineWomen differ from ShineGirl?

ShineWomen is based on the same foundational concepts as ShineGirl and many of the activities are similar.  ShineWomen sessions are longer and involves more group mentoring and discussion.

Where are the courses run and how are Women referred?

We work in partnership with agencies and other community organisations and run 1-2 courses per term. We can take 12 Women from one agency or can take individual referrals from many agencies to form a group.
