Dr. Dolly's Mine Your Memories�
Options
Creative
services and learning experiences
are all custom tailored to individual
needs and preferences. Each client is in the
driver's seat. Options include private advice,
business consultation,
mentoring, coaching, tutoring; expert interviewing;
professional writing; polished editing; workshops,
seminars, keynote speeches, or other presentations;
and group facilitation. Work may be done in person,
by email, telephone, snail mail, or any combination.
You may enjoy visiting us in historic Pensacola or
beautiful Pensacola Beach or other Emerald Coast
beaches, or we'll come to your worksite,
organization, community, home, or other mutually
agreeable site, almost anywhere.
- Consulting,
guidance--Consulting, guidance,
mentoring, coaching. Put an expert, a support
system, and a personal cheerleader at your
fingertips. Dr. Dolly Berthelot is devoted to
helping you reflect and communicate to achieve whatever you want (or need)
to achieve, using your own life experiences.
She'll guide you through all stages of the vital
remembering, examining, recording, and perhaps
publishing process--under circumstances you
choose. These services can focus on either
personal or professional issues; for
individuals, businesses, or organizations; one-on-one in person (your place or ours), by email,
or by telephone, no matter where you are in your
life span, in your expertise level, or in our
world. Some basic consultation is required,
whatever other options you choose.
-
In-depth interviewing--In-depth
interviewing services use the provocative,
perceptive questions of a master elicitor to
stimulate your recollections, probe your psyche,
bring your gems of experience to the surface so
that they can be examined, recorded, shaped,
preserved, and polished to perfection by you or
by a professional writer. Dr. Dolly Berthelot
(or a MYM-trained associate) will interview you,
other members of your family or life circle,
other members of your organization or business.
This internationally published writer, former
daily newspaper editor, magazine editor and
publisher, and journalism/writing professor has
interviewed countless people of all kinds. Many
are surprised at what they've said and delighted
with how much of value they have to say--to
themselves as well as to others.
Dr. Dolly will meet with you in person on the
beautiful Gulf Coast of NW Florida or other
mutually agreeable sites. She will also
interview you by phone, email, or a combination.
- Professional
writing--Our professional writing services
assure that your stories will be well told, so
folks will enjoy reading them, now and in the
future. Stories may vary in length, style, form,
and format, depending on your intended purpose
and audience. Some examples:
- mini tales, even one tightly, brightly
written page to mark special occasions or to
display with heirlooms, albums and scrapbooks
- marketing stories designed for ads, menus, or
other promotionals
- profile stories written as newspaper or
magazine feature articles
- humanized life and family histories,
genealogy stories, from article to book lengths,
whether intended primarily for families and
friends or a wider audience
- books, written as biographies,
autobiographies, memoirs, or other form.
Suitable for publication, whether actually
published or not.
Obviously having your stories professionally
written necessarily involves consulting,
interviewing, and polished editing. With this
option, you will serve as information source and
active participant in the process, but will need
no special knowledge or skills in writing,
editing, or publishing. Writer and client will
mutually agree on such factors as handling of
author credits, title, content, and first or
third person viewpoint, depending on
circumstances, professional standards, and
client preferences. See A Pro
Will Write For You
-
Evaluation and Polished editing--
If you have or want to develop the knowledge,
skills, and commitment to write your own
stories, you may want to do the writing
yourself, at least initially. If so, we will
read, evaluate, and offer expert recommendations,
and professionally edit, revise, or rewrite as
needed to polish the work to perfection. Such
services help you produce clear, correct,
interesting, finished manuscripts, work that best
serves your purposes, work that attracts and
enthralls the people you want (and need) to reach, now or
in the future.
-
 Dynamic workshops--A
variety of memorable workshops, seminars,
classes, and programs, are available in historic
Pensacola, on the gorgeous Emerald Gulf Coast of
Northwest Florida or at your site, almost
anywhere that is easily accessible and
relatively safe. All events are customized to
meet each client's needs and preferences, geared
to clients' various personal, professional,
organizational, or business purposes. Dr. Dolly
only rarely offers public seminars open to a
random mix of people; however, businesses,
organizations, or individuals may create groups
of 10 or more persons who share a goal to learn,
experience, or achieve something pertinent to
Dr. Dolly's expertise. Workshops or programs may
be brought to any mutually agreeable site or
arranged as a retreat on the beautiful Northwest
Florida Gulf Coast or historic Pensacola. See
workshops
in Mine Your Memories�, Story Sharing, Write
Your Life, and
other communication workshops by
Dr Dolly, including innovative SELFSHAPES�/RELATIONSHAPES�.
- Group
facilitation--Perhaps you have special
needs, goals, and preferences. Besides her
original existing workshops, Dr. Dolly will plan
with you, custom design suitable processes and
offer sensitive facilitation to help your group
best deepen understanding of self and others;
foster
teamwork, unity
in diversity, and real community;
provide insightful opportunities for spiritual
growth, self help, or healing; develop a
particular kind of material to leave a personal or
business legacy; or simply enjoy memorable, fun
experiences with new or old friends.
Programs developed for groups of people with
specific disabilities, chronic or terminal
illnesses, or addictions would differ greatly from
those designed for leisure learning retirees,
residents in condos or planned communities,
schoolteachers, business executives, or religious
congregations. As with other services, these will be provided in a
retreat setting on the gorgeous Gulf
Coast of NW Florida or at your preferred
site, almost anywhere.
"There's
a world of wisdom in our personal stories. Your
life is a legacy, a gift that only you can give.
Why waste something so precious?" Dolly
Berthelot

services are fully guaranteed to your satisfaction.
