Program Dates/Topics:
Oct. 3 – Grandparenting in an Overindulgent World
Join us for some fun and rich discussions as we explore what it is like to be a grandparent in this age of “overindulgence” based on Jean Illsley Clarke’s research from her book “How Much is Too Much – Raising Likeable, Responsible, Respectful Children in an Age of Overindulgence.” We will delve into the concept of over-indulgence through the three critical dimensions: giving too much, doing too much for them and not providing enough structure or allowing too much.
Join us as we embark on this journey to become more mindful and navigate the delicate balance between love and overindulgence in our grandparenting roles.
Presenters: Eileen Piersa & Steve Dahl
Nov. 7 – Holiday Meaning or Madness Class for Grandparents
Are your holiday seasons feeling more like a frenzy than a time of joy and connection? Do you long to make your family gatherings meaningful and memorable without succumbing to the “too much” trap of excessive gifts and over-commitment? Join our enlightening class designed just for grandparents and discover how to transform your holiday traditions.
What You’ll Explore:
- Rediscover Special Family Traditions

This class is your opportunity to shift the focus from presents to presence, ensuring that your holidays are filled with meaningful memories. Gain practical, peaceful and realistic tips to create an atmosphere of joy, fulfillment and satisfaction during this magical season.
Don’t let the holidays become a chaotic blur; instead, join us to make them a time of cherished family connections and lasting traditions. “Make this holiday less about presents and more about presence.”
