Each workshop teaches transformational techniques to build confidence, connect more authentically with others, and increase self-awareness, confidence, and how to live intentionally.
We begin each session by acknowledging our “Challenges & Victories”. We look at recent victories and celebrate them, as well as any challenges that have been faced and what was learned.
At the end of each session, students will have actionable takeaways to immediately start using, along with accountability strategies to keep them focused, supported, and on track.
