Join us in vibrant community on January 30th, 2025 for an opportunity to slow down, remember, feel into, and forge meaningful pathways toward renewal through the healing power of our personal and collective narratives.
Connecting authentically with ourselves is the wisdom required to engage in transformative work and return to purpose. Our time together will fortify us as we embark on the new semester.
This no-cost, half-day (with 1 CE that we pay for!) is open to anyone who tends to the wellness of young people within a school setting (school leaders, educators, community service providers, guidance counselors in higher education, social workers, etc.). ❄️❄️❄️
