Makin Institute for NeuroChange

Transform Your Healing Journey! Our NeuroRelational Change model paves the way for profound healing and personal growth, guiding you toward a more vibrant life!

[Makin Institute for NeuroChange @MI4NeuroChange]

Something important is happening September 18–20—and you may want to be in the room.

Brave Restoration is proud to sponsor the NeuroRelational Summit: Rewired by Grace, and we are especially excited that Julia LeFevre will be part of this powerful weekend.

This is not another conference where you sit, listen, take notes, and go home with more information but little change.

This Summit is designed for leaders, coaches, therapists, pastors, counselors, and helpers who want to understand how people actually grow, heal, and change at the deepest level—and experience the kind of relational moments that help rewire old patterns.

You’ll experience:

• Practical NeuroChange tools you can use right away
• Experiential learning that goes beyond information
• A deeply relational, grace-filled atmosphere
• Training designed for real people, real teams, and real transformation
And when you register early, Brave Restoration will give you a free Summit t-shirt. It’s a small gift, but a real gesture—and a reminder that you were part of something meaningful from the beginning.
Julia will be leading two important experiences:
✅ Pre-Conference Trust Lab — Friday, September 18
✅ Interactive Process Group — throughout the conference

If you’ve been curious about how NeuroRelational Change can help rewire patterns in you, your clients, your team, or your organization, this is the room to be in.

Take a few minutes today to check it out, explore the sessions, and consider joining us.

Most people don’t need more “try harder” strategies.
They need safe, attuned relational experiences that help truth move from the head into real life.

Sometimes progress does not require more pressure—it requires greater support, encouragement, curiosity, and safe connection.

Where might that be true in your life?

Whole-Brain Coaching: Integrating ICF Competencies & NeuroRelational Dynamics for Lasting Change

📅 Monday, July 27, 2026 🕢 7:30–9:00 p.m. EDT 💻 Live 90-minute experiential workshop Registration: https://t.co/6CaJ9CEfGk

This live, experiential workshop introduces a five-phase Left–Right–Left Brain NeuroCoaching process:
✅Clarify the goal and coaching agreement.
✅Attune to the lived experience beneath the presenting problem.
✅Co-create a coach-appropriate Transformative Relational Experience.
✅Deepen the shift through metaprocessing.
✅Translate the new learning into client-owned mindsight and action.

Whole-Brain Coaching does not replace goals, insight, accountability, or action planning. It adds the relational and experiential middle that is often missing.

Participants will leave with practical ways to help clients move beyond: “I know what I should do.”

toward: “I know what to do—and I’m beginning to actually live it.”

Your client may already know what to do.

They have the insight.
They have the goal.
They have the action plan.
But when pressure rises, the old pattern returns.
Whole-Brain Coaching helps coaches reach the relational and emotional learning that insight alone may miss.

July 27 | 7:30- 9 p.m. EDT

Take the Makin Institute Personality Profile (MIPP)
…and begin your journey to true transformation
Tired of working on the “problem” but still feeling stuck? Anxiety, shame, relationship conflict, people-pleasing, burnout, leadership frustration—these are often symptoms, not the root.

At the Makin Institute, we don’t start with surface-level fixes. We help you strengthen the Core Character Traits that drive your emotional patterns and relational instincts—so the symptoms finally lose their grip. In other words: the problem isn’t the problem. The real leverage is deeper.

When you take the MIPP, you’ll get a clear snapshot of the four Core Character Traits—Attachment, Separation, Integration, and Authority—so you can stop guessing and start focusing on what will produce the best return.

Why this matters: when the core gets stronger, your emotions stabilize, relationships improve, and growth becomes easier to maintain—because you’re working on the right thing.

Takes about 10 minutes. https://t.co/vE93IuKym4

✅Completely free
✅Instant customized results (so you’ll know where to begin your new journey)

Join us for our next Workshop: How to help clients get past the "knowing-doing" gap.

✅We’ll explore how to blend ICF-aligned competencies with relational neuroscience to help clients move beyond insight alone.

✅We’ll cover how to attune to what’s happening beneath the surface, create a "Transformative Relational Experience," and help clients turn that shift into sustainable, real-world action.

We are hosting a 90-minute live workshop, Whole-Brain Coaching, on Monday, July 27, 2026, from 7:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Whether you are a coach, leader, or helping professional, this is an opportunity to learn how to guide clients from "I know what I should do" to "I am actually experiencing something different." #NeuroRelationalChange #MakinInstitute #LastingChange #RelationalHealing #AffectiveNeuroscience #EmotionalHealing #SpiritualGrowth #ChristianCounseling #CounselorTraining #ExecutiveCoaching #LeadershipDevelopment #RewiredByGrace

You know you should trust God.
You know you should slow down.
You know you should stop criticizing yourself.
You know you should rest. Forgive. Let go. Speak up. Receive grace.

At the Makin Institute for NeuroChange, we help people—and the counselors, coaches, pastors, and leaders who serve them—understand why insight and willpower alone often are not enough.

Through the NeuroRelational Change Model, we teach how safe, grace-filled, truth-filled relational experiences can reach the deeper patterns that keep people stuck and help create lasting change.

You do not have to keep fighting the same internal battles with more pressure, shame, or self-improvement. There is another way forward.

Learn more about the Makin Institute for NeuroChange and discover how relational experiences can rewire what words alone cannot.

Holding Weakness and Worth Together: A Journey Toward Integration.

In our latest NeuroSpark Podcast, we discuss how to embrace both the good and the bad parts of life, rather than seeing things as entirely good or entirely bad.

Without integration, people split themselves into extremes:
“If I am strong, I am okay.”
“If I am weak, I am not okay.”
“If I fail, I am disqualified.”
“If I need help, I am less valuable.”

"When I am weak, then I am strong." Paul’s theology offers a profound alternative to our culture of hiding. Integration isn't about being perfect; it's about holding our weakness and worth together. Grace is not theoretical—it’s found in our deepest deficits.

“Listen with the same passion with which you want to be heard.” — Harriet Lerner

Every person longs to be known, heard, and understood. We want someone to slow down, care about our story, and listen beneath the surface.

And so does the person in front of us.

Real friendship offers others the same gift we desire: presence, curiosity, patience, and care. Healing begins when our listening says, “You matter. Your story matters. I want to know you.”

Join us Tuesday, May 19, 2026 | 7:00–8:15 p.m. EST to discover how The Brain Remembers Grace: How Memories Restore Calm and Strength

In this workshop, you will discover how emotionally rich memories of nurturing relationships, meaningful successes, and even sensory experiences like music, places, and objects can help restore calm, strengthen your core self, and bring stability when you feel overwhelmed or alone.

It is a practical, experiential workshop where you’ll learn the concept, experience it yourself, and leave with a tool you can begin using with clients, leaders, ministry members, or yourself.

Why do people gain insight, feel motivated, and still go back to the same patterns under stress? Because information alone often does not reach the deeper emotional learning underneath.
That’s one reason for NeuroRelational Summit 2026: Rewired by Grace. https://t.co/25cK3Z8NDZ

There are places you can go to learn more.
And then there are spaces where you can actually begin to heal.

This is the kind of experience we want to create with you.

A relational, immersive, experiential space where you can slow down, be known, find renewal, and discover that hope often grows in the presence of safe people. Through meaningful connection, honest moments, and grace-filled community, healing becomes more than an idea; it becomes something you begin to experience.

Come find hope, healing, renewal, and friendships with us.
