Rediscovering Yourself Through Your Life Story (In-Person)

As we move into the next phase of our lives, there are benefits to stopping to reexamine where we have been. What are the stories you tell yourself and others about your life, and how do those stories change when viewed through the lenses of time and age? Explore key moments and themes from your life through thematic journaling, no writing experience required! What will you uncover? What will you rediscover? What new meaning will you make? You will be guided through a process to tell your life stories, two pages at a time, embarking on an exploration of your life, story by story. Through the writing and sharing of our stories in a safe space, we gain clarity on all iterations of ourselves throughout our lifetime and clear a path for a way forward.
