A D.I.V.A is a woman who recognizes that she is Divine, Intelligent, Vivacious and A challenge and it is dating and interacting with young men as this type of woman that increases the probability of attracting a quality mate and making wise dating and relationship choices that eventually lead to marriage. This program is designed to provide single college students an educational road map to healing past pains, false beliefs and barriers that stand in the way of attracting a healthy relationship.

The majority of new STD infections occur in individuals between the ages of 15 and 30 [the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.] The first large study to determine the rate of AIDS infection on collegecampuses found that about one in 500 students was infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) About 25,000 of the country's 12.5 million college students are infected with the virus, [Richard P. Keeling, director of student health services at the University of Virginia and president of the American College Health Association.] STD and HIV infection on college campuses

UNPLANNED PREGNANCY ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES

According to the Assorted and non-inclusive statistics on motherhood from the U.S. Census Bureau 14.1% of abortions are a result of the mother having relationship problem or has a partner who does not want the pregnancy.

BENEFITS OF RELATIONSHIP COACHING TO THE CITY
22. The majority of the competition comes from relationship coaching conducted by psychologist, relationship enthusiast and religious based programs taught by churches and individuals with specific expertise in maintaining healthy marriages. These programs, however, fail to address how to help a single college woman remain open to getting married in the future and learn dating behaviors that can prevent them from future unplanned pregnancies, HIV infection and heartbreak that can lead to emotional resistance to long term relationships. Why Book The ‘DIVA Don’t Get Played Tour!’
23. Over time, Shay Williams-Garrett has developed a repertoire of examples and approaches to help students with nearly all of the challenges that prevent them from getting the most out of love, dating and relationships. As an example, many coaches will give their clients dating advice that will superficially address how to date such as not to have sex on the first date. The student will go away knowing that her coach believes that it is not a good idea to have sex on the first date but if it happens then this is alright because this guy may be ‘the one’ and the chemistry on the first date was really strong. The ‘DIVA Don’t Get Played Tour!’
24. Few programs have the resources to provide a comprehensive relationship-coaching program covering every possible aspect of relationships and dating challenges from understanding human behavior motivated by biochemical triggers, to learning how to make healthy choices in love, dating and relationships. There is no organized relationship coaching service available to colleges that really covers healthy dating behavior from soup to nuts. The ‘DIVA Don’t Get Played Tour!’
25. Students are introduced to the idea that not only is it a bad idea to have sex on the first date, no matter how strong the chemistry but that there is a biochemical reason why it would be disadvantageous to do so. Shay would first help each student create a ‘why’ or road map big enough to subconsciously motivate them to follow the advice and do what it takes to attract what they want in love dating and relationships. Using vivid stories and examples, she would explain that as women have sex, they release a bonding chemical called oxytocin that cause women to bond or become addicted to their partners which makes falling for a bad choice more likely. She also shares the biological process in a man that causes him to push away from an unsuspecting woman if in fact she falls victim to her emotions and has sex with him too soon. Shay Williams-Garrett's approach is different.
26. Using NLP and other empowering techniques throughout the relationship coaching process helps to place the student’s behavior on autopilot towards implementing what they have learned without significant mental resistance. This is just one technique that has been developed successfully over several years that sets Shay Williams-Garrett's relationship coaching sessions apart from other options. Empowering techniques that work!
