What is Blue Binder Project for Divorce?

Blue Binder Project is a four-week curriculum that combines the convenience of leaning from home with the accountability and encouragement that comes from weekly one-on-one coaching calls.
Blue Binder Project offers you the opportunity to take advantage of your 'window of clarity'; those difficult moments in life that get your attention and push you to look at what is working and what is not - and do something inspired about it! 
Blue Binder Project for Divorce grew from the overwhelming success of our original Blue Binder Project that led us to create this version, tailored to the unique challenges and opportunities of going through a divorce. 
Blue Binder Binder Project for Divorce is based on scientifically proven methods from the fields of human behavior, motivational interviewing and psychology.  Our coaches have a combined experience of over 45 years in the field! 
Blue Binder Project is scientifically proven to work!  In a study lasting more than three years, college researchers at Western Oregon University verified that participants of Blue Binder Project reported increased happiness, gratitude, and overall satisfaction with life, while also reporting decreased anxiety and loneliness. 

How does Blue Binder Project work?

Curriculum
Blue Binder Project is a practical and compelling guide to getting more from your life, starting from day one of our work together. We use real life experiences, psychological theory and scientific methodology to introduce you to new ways to examine how you think, feel and behave. Our curriculum encompasses reflection, personal inventory, gratitude, accountability, and goal setting as you work towards your own personal alignment. Blue Binder Project is rooted in strong psychological science and will assist you in making permanent, positive changes to help you get more from life.
Homework
Personal growth takes effort, plain and simple. During your window of clarity, you are willing to do work today to break through the veil of your old ways of thinking to uncover your personal truths. With this new perspective, you are able to accept more, do more, and grow more in this brief window of clarity than you could do in years of your everyday life. The weekly homework assignments help you see the landscape of your own mind through a different lens, one with less judgment and more optimism than before. This helps you move past ‘stuck’ to find purpose, excitement and joy again.
Coaches
The one-on-one telephone coaching you receive brings to life the Blue Binder Project curriculum and homework assignments. Each of us needs a unique mixture of encouragement, accountability, empathy and appreciation to bring out our best, to help us see our blind spots, and yes, sometimes, to even call us on our own excuses or stories. Our coaches are fantastic at what they do, and their role is to help you get more from yourself during your window of clarity than you could achieve on your own.

Western Oregon University Study

The original Blue Binder Project curriculum contains the real-life, hands-on best practices and lessons that we’ve refined through our law firm as we’ve helped thousands of people over the past 15 years.  With this practical and tested foundation we’ve always known Blue Binder Project truly helps people, but we weren’t able to say ‘why’ it worked, and that seemed like a pretty good thing to figure out! Then we met Dr. Debi Brannan, a professor at Western Oregon University. After reading our curriculum and hearing some of our success stories, Dr. Brannan was not only impressed, she offered to help us better understand the science, the ‘why’, behind how we were able to help so many folks.   

Dr. Brannan and her team went to work. First, they took Blue Binder Project apart and looked at each of the curriculum elements separately, and found research studies that scientifically validate every element of Blue Binder Project. What they couldn’t find though, because it didn’t yet exist, was a study that measured the effectiveness of combining all these elements together as we’ve done in Blue Binder Project’s curriculum.

So, Dr. Brannan designed a study, and for more than three years now, she’s surveyed Blue Binder Project participants. During these surveys, participants are asked a variety of questions, including why they chose to participate and what they felt they achieved through the program.  While the study itself continues, Dr. Brannan can now conclusively and scientifically validate the effectiveness of Blue Binder Project as a whole, and she has been able to quantify some pretty great things.  Below is just a sampling of the information from Dr. Brannan's study.

From the proven success of the original Blue Binder Project curriculum, we now bring these same powerful methods to the challenges and opportunities of going through a divorce.

THE NUMBERS
Through her research, Dr. Brannan has determined that Blue Binder Project participants’ happiness increases, they feel less isolated or lonely, their sense of gratefulness increases, and they feel more satisfaction with life! In other words, Dr. Brannan has placed the scientific stamp of approval on what we knew already – Blue Binder Project truly helps people.


Participants were asked to indicate how often they had felt happy in the past week.  Results showed that happiness increased at statistically significant  levels over the course of the 60 day period.  In other words, people reported they were feeling better - happier than when they started Blue Binder Project.


Blue Binder Project participants reported how lonely they felt before they started the program and then again at 30 and 60 days.  Findings show there is a significant decrease in loneliness, meaning that participants were likely noticing the support they had and that they did not feel alone in this process.  Recent research has explored the important relationship between loneliness and mental and physical health. 



The trend for feeling more grateful shows a significant difference between baseline reports and 60-days into Blue Binder Project.  The trajectory of this data suggests that Blue Binder Project is having an effect.  Gratitude is a predictor for many positive outcomes such as health, well-being, staying sober, and good relationships.


Satisfaction with life is an important predictor of  well-being and positive health related behaviors.  Results revealed a significant difference between Baseline and 60-days.  When all three data points are examined, the trends are in a positive direction suggesting that Blue Binder Project is changing how the participants feel about their life.

WHY?

Why do people participate in the Blue Binder Project?

Here is a sampling of quotes from Blue Binder Participants when asked this question during the study done by Western Oregon University:

To focus on bettering myself. This was something to do for me because I spend so much time focusing on others.

I needed a step in the right direction and I just needed a change to be able to look at my life and what I was doing.

I needed to understand why I was in this crisis, how and why I get myself in situations like these.

To gain insight into personal baggage I have been carrying since childhood.

Because I needed to re-evaluate my life and the direction I was heading.

To help me make better decisions for me and my family.

To have a positive result come from such a negative situation.

Still wondering if this is right for you?
Read our Frequently Asked Questions to find out more.

Q:  What does the course include?
Blue Binder Project includes a 4-week scientifically validated curriculum consisting of weekly homework, a mindset-based book and one-on-one personalized coaching calls.  This is a powerful combination to help you gain better awareness of what is happening in your life, what you want to change and how to get there! 
Q:  Is this a group session or do I meet with my coach 1 on 1?
Each coaching session is a one on one telephone call with your assigned coach designed to personalize the Blue Binder Project curriculum to your specific goals and needs.  Calls last 1/2 an hour each week.  You will review the work you have completed for that week.  The materials are designed to prepare you for a meaningful conversation with your coach.
Q:  How do the weekly sessions with my coach work?
Your weekly coaching sessions are done by scheduled appointments on the telephone and can be done from your home or office, anywhere you can have some privacy and won't be interrupted.  We know you are a busy person, and we want this to be convenient,  During each call you will talk with your coach about your Blue Binder homework, the insights you are gaining and the changes you want to be working on.
Q:  What is the weekly time commitment?
Each week you will have a 1/2 hour coaching call with your assigned coach.  You will also have homework each week in your binder.  Ideally we suggest you do your binder work each day, maybe 15-30 minutes a day.  Some clients spend a little more time, some a little less.  What's important here is that you will get out of Blue Binder Project what you put into it.  The more focused and committed you are, the more benefit you will receive!
Q:  Does my insurance cover Blue Binder Project?
You are welcome to contact your insurance company to see if they will reimburse you for all or a portion of the cost of Blue Binder Project. We will be glad to support you in this effort to the extent we can. Though we’ve not yet had a client be successful in this, we believe it is only a matter of time until we can help an insurance company see past the short-term cost to see the long-term benefits that Blue Binder Project provides.
Q:  What does it cost to participate in Blue Binder Project?
We offer three payment options at Blue Binder Project. You can choose to pay in full at a discounted rate or select a 30 or 90 day payment plan.  To learn more, please call us at (877)302-7710 or email us at info@bluebinderproject.com.

Q:  What is a rollout call?
Your rollout call happens after you hire us and after you receive your Blue Binder from us. During our rollout call we spend the time together to make sure you understand our process to give you a great foundation for what is to come. We talk through when & how you can expect to receive the materials as well as talk though how you can get the most impact with your personal priorities using our curriculum.  We then review the Week One curriculum, answer any questions you have, and let you get to work!
Q:  Can I wait until life calms down a bit to start Blue Binder Project?
To be blunt, no. You can’t wait until life calms down because you won’t do it later, regardless of how much you think you will now. And please understand that we say this from a place of love, not judgment! You can truly believe you will pick this back up later, because that certainly makes logical sense, but that isn’t how the human brain works. Right now, you are willing to do things you wouldn’t have done two weeks ago, and that you won’t do in two months from now – literally. That is the true power of your window of clarity.

Here is another way to say this - Each of us has a protective shell about ourselves that keeps us safe from society. The flip side of that protective shell is that it also keeps us confined into who we are. If you want to make change during your everyday life, you can, but you are essentially sanding away at that shell from the outside – this takes a long time and more persistence than most of us possess.

With the trauma of a major life change, today that protective shell is shattered and in pieces on the ground. Right now, you are able to make true changes for yourself without having to break through that protective shell. But even as you read this, that shell is reforming, and if you wait ‘until later’ to do something for yourself, that protective barrier will be back in place, and you will have lost this opportunity.
Q:  What happens if I don't do Blue Binder Project and don't use this time to grow?
We really encourage you to take advantage of the opportunity that comes with feeling stuck and overwhelmed to work through whatever part of life has you challenged. This is more than just an idle suggestion – at the end of the day, you feel this way because some part of life isn’t working the way it needs to, and the pressure/stress/stuck feeling of that ‘something’ led you to wanting a change. If you don’t take this chance to work on yourself, you run the risk of what is sometimes referred to as an AFLO (Another F’ing Learning Opportunity) – we didn’t coin that phrase, but it sure seems to fit.

Not that this exact circumstance would happen again, but if you don’t make the needed changes for yourself now, that same pressure/stress/stuck feeling will eventually return, and the next ‘opportunity’ will be after you feel stuck and overwhelmed in a different relationship or your job or career or with your family. This is what happens in order to give you another opportunity for change. Needless to say, you don’t want too many of these opportunities because they don’t usually come associated with something pleasant, so please give us a call today. (877) 302-7710 
Q:  Will this work for me?
Yes, if you let it and are ready to do the work to change. We believe in the power of changing your mindset, and in the power of taking action to make changes real.  To gain the most value possible from Blue Binder Project, you must unite both—the ideas with the action. We’re here to help you with direction, accountability and support, but it begins by helping yourself here!

Q: Is Blue Binder Project the same as counseling?
The short answer to this question is  no, a coaching program like Blue Binder Project is not the same service as counseling. 
Why is this? Because we did not design Blue Binder Project to replace individual counseling. Depending on what you need as an individual, this more traditional resource can be very beneficial. The problem is that counseling takes time for you to gain traction with, and by the time you are moving forward, you’ve burned through most of your thirty-day window of clarity. Instead, we believe Blue Binder Project is the right way to start moving forward immediately! With the momentum of Blue Binder Project success moving you forward, you can then transition into traditional counseling if you feel the need.
Q: How do I know if I'll benefit form Blue Binder Project?
You know you will benefit because you are reading this. Seriously. You wouldn’t be on this site if our message didn’t resonate with you. Our message wouldn’t resonate with you if you weren’t ready to grow. So, quit reading these FAQ’s and call us or fill out the webform already! 

Q: What happens when I get in touch with you?
The next step is for us to have a brief (and free) conversation to talk through a few things:
First, we’d like to get to know a little about you and answer any questions you might have. This information will let us decide together if Blue Binder Project makes sense for you.

Next, we’ll talk through the cost of Blue Binder Project and payment options.  

And then, assuming we choose to work together, we will schedule your Blue Binder Project rollout so you can get started!
