IN-PERSON OR VIRTUAL WORKSHOPS

COMPASSION

Take Care, Give Care

Participants will learn about the importance of self-care and how to cultivate greater compassion, a critical trait for navigating life’s challenges with resilience.

CONFIDENCE

Be Seen — in Service of Others

We all matter, and our unique voices matter. In this session, participants learn tools to combat nerves, summon a sense of power, and speak up at school, work and beyond.

GRATITUDE

Express Gratitude, Increase Resilience

Participants learn strategies for cultivating a personal gratitude practice, which can help them bolster resilience to stress and flourish at school, at work and in life.

PERSPECTIVE

Busyness and the Big Picture

When we focus on life’s busyness, we risk losing sight of the bigger picture. In this session, participants “zoom out” to gain perspective on their to-dos and discover how they connect to what’s important.

PRESENCE

Putting People First

In this session, participants explore what it means to be fully present to those around them and how our presence can communicate the message “you matter.”

PURPOSE

Using Gifts for Good

Purpose gives life meaning. Participants will experience an inspirational lesson that helps them identify their personal gifts and talents in order to serve the world’s greatest needs.
