For Women Who Dare to Dream |
|
This women’s workshop offers the opportunity to step back quietly from your busy life and gently get back in touch with your self and the still, small voice within you that whispers to be heard.
You'll learn easy, practical ways to manage your mind and open your heart. Through the beauty of music, quiet, laughter, ceremony, you'll come into balance and alignment, rekindle your sense that anything is possible, and leave inspired with a new vision for your future. |

How Am I Now (After a Lifetime of Being Everything to Everyone) |
|
|
Who Am I Now? is a question all of us ask at some point in our lives. We’ll spend time exploring the woman inside us (yes, she’s still there!). We’ll explore the importance of living from the Inside Out instead of the Outside In. We’ll learn skills for resurrecting and manifesting our long-dormant hopes and dreams. And in the process we’ll rediscover the beautiful woman inside us and begin to see a glimpse of the vibrant possibilities in our future. |
