Group coaching is a wonderful way to get the affirming and personalized support that you long for without the cost of one-on-one sessions. Stronger U group coaching opportunities have maximum capacity limits to keep our cohorts small and allow you to form relationships with a peer community as well as your coach. Our group coaching live sessions reserve time for you to ask for coaching from your Stronger U facilitator, as well as time for the group to discuss topics and reach consensus (or not! Each of us varies in the support that feels relevant to us. We welcome respectful disagreements.).
Several of our group coaching programs are listed below. Subscribe to our newsletter to learn about additional programs as they become available! If you are looking for individualized coaching programs, then review our offerings, and apply today! We’d love to work with you.

Stubborn Survivors: Trans Care Circles, 12 Weeks (currently running!)
September 18 – December 11, 2025
Survival as Trans people with intersecting marginalization is one of our greatest forms of resistance! You don’t have to survive alone. The tiniest intentional acts of caring for each other, fueled by rage against a system that kills us, foster communities of Stubborn Survivors. If resistance, thriving out of spite, intentional community with other Trans humans, and mutual care resonate with you, we invite you to join us for this 12-week group coaching program!

Stubborn Survivors: Chronic Suicidality Narrative Reclamation; 6-Week Intensive (sold out!)
December 1, 2025- January 11, 2026
Stubborn Survivors resist and reclaim. We know our suicidality is a natural response to unnatural and unlivable circumstances. Our stories are our art. We tell them so that we can make sense of the nonsensical, reclaim our autonomy, find community and help each other to thrive. We reclaim our narrative because it matters. You matter.
If you’re ready to reclaim your chronic suicidality narrative, then we would love to unite with you through this intensive 6-week program!
The Stubborn Survivors Chronic Suicidality Narrative Reclamation Intensive is built on the following 5 pillars of navigating chronic suicidality:
- Depathologizing your experiences within non-carceral suicide sacred spaces
- Empowering your agency and your narrative
- Coaching from Stubborn Survivors who apply a trauma-informed and lived experience lens
- Anchoring into a community of likeminded Stubborn Survivors
- Mutual community care principles and practices
