Transforming Conflict
The Mighty HeartÂź
Providing new skills to resolve conflict
Global and local challenges are increasingly urgent. New skills are required to resolve these challenges. The Mighty HeartÂź course offers these skills that help each one of us to transform the sense of loss, tension and overload that so many people are feeling today. Skills that enable us to listen, to turn anger into a fuel for change, to face our own internal critic, to develop the presence needed in a crisis, to take a stand on key issues, to consult the wisdom of the heart. These skills are so effective that they help individuals, community leaders and activists to calm tensions, build confidence and find solutions to conflict in families, communities and even countries.
We are being challenged at every level to find ways to manage disagreement constructively. The Mighty Heart course provides straightforward, wise ways to transform frustration and misunderstanding into communication that is clear and effective. We learn to develop real collaboration to resolve community tension as well as family disagreement. Using these skills we can transform frustration into action enabling us to be in service to positive impact in the world. Over the years I have observed how these skills have empowered leaders to transform tough conflicts into practical action for change. It warms my heart to see families as well as communities find connection and resolution using these precious methods. Applications are now open for our next course, starting February 2026. For information about the organisation and courses offered see The Mighty Heart website.
Iâve been and mediating and enhancing capacities for groups in violent conflict. Iâve infused The Mighty Heart doctrine in that work. I am currently training women mediators from across the African continent in ceasefire mediation. Like in all my work, the heart, especially the Mighty Heart doctrine, will be at the front and center of the training.

The Mighty Heart is a reminder that all true wisdom and knowledge reside in the heart. In times of confusion and polarisation, this heart-centered knowing is essential. In my work on fostering dialogue between Russia and Ukraine, I integrate the Mighty Heart skills into every dimension of my peacebuilding work â from womenâs inclusion and peacebuilding training to creating spaces where feminine qualities can guide and sustain this vital work.

The Mighty HeartÂź Course â the 8 Modules

When we own the loss, the grief, and the anger in our lives, we can discover and tap into a vast energy for change.
Train yourself to have the kind of innate presence that not only can de-fuse a tense situation, but can actually save lives.
Actually listening to someone you disagree with or dislike can reveal a goldmine of vital information that you can use to prevent and resolve conflict.
Left-brain linear thinking is obsessed with measurement, results, and âwinningâ. The right brain supplies balance by seeing the whole picture and using compassion to find solutions that benefit all.
To enable those of us (90% of us) who are plagued by Imposter Syndrome, to transform this inner critic into an ally, and even a guide.
When thereâs an issue you care about, learn to be able to stand up and deliver your message with courage, clarity, presence and purpose.
We can turn the power of our anger into an internal fuel that gives us the energy to put right cruelty and injustice.
The mantra of last century was âwhat can I get?â but the new passion is âwhat can I give?â. Be part of the millions worldwide who have decided to get action and build a safer future.

The Might Heart in Chile
A New Constitution
In 2021 our first course in Spanish was a wonderful opportunity to support the representatives of Chile who had helped design a new constitution for their country, and the despair they felt as it was ultimately voted out. The impact the course had on their spirits and renewed courage was heart warming and inspiring.

Donât die before you take a stand
A moving testimonial from Kayoko Nemoto
During the recent Mighty Heart online course, these words hit me like lightning â âDonât die before you take a standâ â clear, fierce, undeniable. That moment became the turning point of my life. I took a two-year sabbatical from the Japanese bank where I have worked for 24 years; it was a leap into the unknown. I have now enrolled in the Peace Studies and International Development at the University of Bradford in the UK. I want to bring my skills in project planning and management into the field of global peace building. I want to serve in a way that spreads compassion, understanding, and courage.
This path wonât be easy. But itâs mine. And itâs worth walking. And to you who are reading this: If youâre standing at a crossroads, wondering whether to follow your heart â itâs never too late to choose a new path.
â Kayoko Nemoto, Peace Studies and International Development student
