Empower Yourself. Transform Others. Lead a Movement.
The global school of empowerment coaching for women, founded by bestselling author Crystal Andrus Morissette.


What is your Emotional Age™?
Most women swing between two archetypes: the Parent (Mother Energy), always giving, and the Child (Daughter Energy), always wanting. Both are ways of protecting ourselves. The Adult, Woman Energy™, is the Real Self. We call the journey there Healing the Split.
The Empowerment Spectrum™ shows where you are right now, rising from Passive through Assertive, where courage begins, to Peaceful.

I spent decades helping women find their power. Then I had to find my own.
Long before I became an author, a coach, or the founder of The S.W.A.T. Institute, I was a little girl trying to survive. Those questions became a thirty-year journey: why do intelligent, capable women abandon themselves?
With the encouragement of my mentor, Louise Hay, I founded The S.W.A.T. Institute to train women to become Empowerment Coaches.
Not simply to teach coaching. To teach women how to come home to themselves.
