"I am learning so much about myself and my true emotions. At the beginning I didn’t know that just two simple words Nice vs Kind, would bring up so much emotion and disturb my comfort zone. I’m so in love with this 21 day course. Now I understand why you say, "I’m a recovering nice guy." It will be a life time program"

What people are saying about the Masterclass
Patty E.
"The world needs this! I used to think emotions were either bad or good. Now I know that every emotion serves a purpose. Understanding the difference between authentic and counterfeit emotions is helping me grow in ways I never imagined. This is life-changing"!"
Christina J.
"I am finding awesome opportunities at least once a day to share about the things I have been learning. When you truly love and care for someone, you are kind, not sugarcoated nice. You make choices that are kind to yourself, and kind to them- not just what feels comfortable or good in the moment. I truly believe that the work Curtis is doing is vitally important to helping us.”
Rob A.
"Almost immediately I started to recognize things and behaviors that were the opposite of what I had intended. Being taught to be nice my whole life and not realizing that it was damaging was eye-opening. Your statement that nice has an expectation or "you owe me," attached to it and kind doesn't was so helpful."
Zack M.
"The "Nice vs. Kind" master class quite literally changed my life. I was shocked in the beginning at how much of the content related to me as an individual. I felt a great need to change numerous "nice" behaviors in my life. The group in this course was incredible. I felt empowered by the examples around me. As we opened to vulnerability and shared experiences, I felt so encouraged that change is possible, even in just three weeks. This course introduced me to my authentic self."
Diantha L.

This class was very well thought out and put together. I'm so grateful for the insight I gained from this class. I especially loved how it was set up. Having virtual chats twice a week to make sure everyone is on the same page and to answer our questions was a great idea. Having a couple people to check in with each day and discuss the challenges and insights we are having was so helpful. Having the specific things we have to do each day was so helpful to help us remember what we're working on to give us more opportunities to practice and make these skills a habit in our lives. This class will be so helpful for so many people! It's so helpful in teaching us how to connect with others better and set and implement healthy boundaries.
