STRENGTHENING YOUR INNER STORIES FOR INTERPERSONAL WINS

Our stories shape our perspective of the world and our engagement with it. In light of this daily reality, how can we have better stories for better outcomes? This workshop introduces an approachable framework to get perspective on our internal stories for a richer array of potential outcomes in life and work as we endeavor to bring change. Have fun learning a simple approach to understanding how internal stories are made, and how they influence our choices and behaviors. With Chris’ insightful guidance, you will leave with one creative tool to help (re)author the stories that shape inner dialog, behavior, and ultimately your interactions with others.

CREATING A VISION FOR YOUR FINANCIAL WELL-BEING

Financial well-being affects overall well-being more than any other single factor. What is financial well-being and how does it differ from financial stability? What ideas are lurking in the shadows of your sense of well-being that you have not previously identified? In this workshop, Julie sheds light on the invisible and often destructive financial narratives in your head and how you can take control of them for the sake of your financial future and your ability to effectively bring change. You will leave having identified your financial well-being saboteurs and set your vision for better beliefs and actions that support who you want to be.

UTILIZING YOUR BODY TO DE-ESCALATE STRESS

Even with our best preparation and good intentions for bringing change, unexpected factors occur every day that throw us off center. Our reactions to these stressors happen at reflexively fast speed so we need recovery practices that meet the rate of reactivity. A prime resource that is always available is our physical body. In this workshop, Lis will lead you through techniques for better managing stress. Informed by principles of mindfulness and embodiment, these methods work by changing our attention, breathing and body posture to positively adjust our state of being. Come experiment with proven practices for opening access to more of you at your best and leave ready to utilize them over and over again.

REBIRTHING YOURSELF IN UNCERTAIN TIMES

Are you at a professional or personal crossroads due to a major life shift? In times like these, we ask ourselves the big questions like, “How do I know what my purpose is?” This workshop provides a framework for gaining clarity about what you’re uniquely positioned and called to do at this time in your life—a prerequisite to bringing change. You will discover a process for rebirthing yourself when you feel that nudge to be or do more. Shayna will share her story and give time and space for you to apply the same process to your life. You will leave this session with the inspiration and clarity needed to ignite what’s next for you!

SHIFTING FROM SELF-IMPROVEMENT TO SELF-EMBRACEMENT

How often do we work on improving ourselves by identifying weaknesses and trying to change them into strengths? This pattern makes sense. For example, being too sensitive can be unlearned to make room for stronger decision-making ability. This approach, however, has an inherent danger: in attempting to become the ‘better’ version of ourselves we can lose our essence. This workshop invites you to not exchange who you are for who you want to be. With Anton’s help, you will discover how to build upon what is already there. Working with a real situation in your life, you will leave with a commitment to see what impact you can have in bringing change when aligned with your natural way of being.

CULTIVATING CONFIDENCE IN THE FACE OF FEAR

Fear is often the sidekick of change and most of us expend vital energy attempting to make the fear subside. What if there is a more productive path? This workshop presents a tested tool for tapping into something more powerful than your fear—your mission. You will discover a technique for cultivating confidence when fear is poised to stifle your power to bring change. As Ross (coach) delivers the process, Julio (client) will share his story of using the tool and the outcomes that followed. You will leave with fresh clarity and inspiration through applying the tool to a real-life situation and designing your own specific next step.
