ABOUT

The following workshops are dedicated to fostering healthy relationships and personal growth! We believe that boundaries are the bedrock of every meaningful connection, whether it’s between parent and child, partners in a marriage, or colleagues at work. Our exploration of boundaries will illuminate how they safeguard relationships, establish healthy standards, and enrich the joy we find in our interactions.

Dive into our workshops, where we delve into topics such as Developing Understanding and Compassion for those who have Experienced Trauma, Building Emotional Intimacy, Resolving Conflict in Relationships, and learning about Mental Wellness in the Age of Social Media. Join us as we equip you with tools, insights, and strategies to nurture thriving relationships and personal well-being.

MAIN TALK: Becoming Trauma-Informed: Developing understanding and compassion for those who have experienced trauma

Instead of asking, “What is wrong with this person?”, we begin to ask a compassionate and curious question: “What has happened in this person’s life that is influencing who they are today?” In this workshop we will learn how to define what trauma is, how it impacts one’s body and mind, life and legacy, as well as those around them. We will learn how to restore a sense of safety, power, and urgency to a survivor’s life and gain some tools to cope with traumatic memories that hold us back from truly living in the present.

Whether you would identify yourself as having lived through trauma or have experienced it vicariously through a loved one’s experience, this workshop aims to carefully address a common yet difficult topic for all.
