Workshop 01

Trauma-Informed Forgiveness Workshop

Healing, Choice & Letting Go on Your Own Terms

Forgiveness on your terms, with no pressure and no expectation.

Register on Eventbrite
Forgiveness can be a deeply personal and complex part of healing, especially for people who have experienced trauma, betrayal, grief, abuse or significant loss. This six-hour, trauma-informed workshop offers a safe, supportive and non-judgmental space to explore forgiveness without pressure or expectation.

Forgiveness does not mean forgetting, excusing harmful behavior, minimizing what happened or reconciling with someone who caused you pain. This workshop focuses on choice, personal boundaries, self-compassion, emotional safety and your right to decide what healing and moving forward mean for you.

Through education, guided reflection, grounding practices, discussion and optional activities, participants will explore the effects of unresolved hurt, barriers to forgiveness, self-forgiveness, healthy boundaries and ways to release what no longer serves them.

You will never be asked to share personal experiences or to forgive anyone. You may pass on any activity, take a break or choose an alternative reflection at any time.

You'll leave with
- A clear understanding of what forgiveness is and is not
- Grounding practices you can use when old hurts resurface
- Tools for self-compassion and self-forgiveness
- A personal sense of what moving forward could look like for you

Workshop 02

Empty Seat at the Table

Processing Grief, Honoring Loved Ones & Navigating the Holidays and Beyond

Carry their memory while making room for life, love and healing.

Register on Eventbrite
Empty Seat at the Table is a six-hour grief workshop for anyone navigating the loss of someone they love, especially during the holidays and other meaningful occasions.

While others celebrate, those who are grieving may notice the empty chair, miss a familiar voice or feel the absence of someone who once made the season complete. Grief can also resurface long after a loss: on birthdays, anniversaries, at family gatherings, or in ordinary moments when we reach for someone who is no longer there.

This workshop offers a supportive space to explore how loss affects our emotions, relationships, traditions and everyday lives. Participants will reflect on their loved one, acknowledge the realities of their loss, explore ways to navigate difficult moments and consider how to honor their loved one's memory while continuing to live their own lives.

There is no single right way to grieve and no timeline for grief. The goal is not to forget the person who is missing. It is to carry their memory while continuing to make room for life, love and healing.

You'll leave with
- A plan for handling the holidays, anniversaries and other hard days
- Meaningful ways to honor and remember your loved one
- Practical coping strategies for when grief resurfaces
- Connection with others who understand

Workshop 04

Pour Into Yourself

Self-Care Without the Guilt

You cannot keep pouring from an empty cup.

Register on Eventbrite
Pour Into Yourself is an interactive six-hour workshop that helps participants reconnect with themselves and see self-care as an essential part of a healthy, balanced and fulfilling life.

When we are expected to keep giving, work harder and push forward, taking time for ourselves can feel selfish or unnecessary. This workshop challenges that mindset. Caring for yourself is not a luxury. It is how you protect your physical, emotional, mental and social well-being.

Participants will explore the dimensions of self-care, identify personal stressors and signs of burnout, and examine the beliefs that create guilt around self-care. The workshop also covers saying no, asking for help, managing time and energy, and building realistic routines that last beyond the workshop.

You cannot keep pouring from an empty cup. It's time to pour into yourself.

You'll leave with
- A clearer sense of your stressors and early signs of burnout
- Ways to challenge the guilt that gets in the way of self-care
- A personalized self-care plan you can keep up

Workshop 05

Finding Your Voice

Confidence, Boundaries & Self-Advocacy

Your thoughts, needs, feelings and boundaries matter.

Register on Eventbrite
Finding Your Voice is an interactive six-hour workshop that helps participants recognize their value, build confidence, communicate their needs and become more comfortable speaking up for themselves.

Many people hold back from saying what they need, saying no or advocating for themselves because they fear disappointing others, being misunderstood or creating conflict. This workshop offers practical tools to move from staying silent or second-guessing yourself toward speaking with clarity, confidence and intention.

Through interactive activities, group discussion, role-play and personal reflection, participants will practice sharing their opinions, naming their needs and responding to difficult situations at work, in appointments, in groups and in everyday life.

The goal is not to become the loudest person in the room. Finding your voice means knowing that your thoughts, needs, feelings and boundaries matter, and having the confidence to say so.

You'll leave with
- Greater confidence in expressing your opinions and needs
- Practiced language for speaking up at work and in everyday settings
- Strategies for handling pushback and second-guessing

Workshop 06

Boundaries Without Guilt

Saying No, Holding Limits & Protecting Your Peace

Boundaries are not about controlling others. They protect your peace.

Register on Eventbrite
Boundaries Without Guilt is an interactive six-hour workshop that helps participants understand why healthy boundaries matter and build the confidence to set and keep them.

Boundaries support healthy relationships, self-respect and well-being, yet setting them can feel uncomfortable. Many people struggle to say no, worry about disappointing others, over-explain their decisions or feel responsible for other people's reactions.

This workshop explores what boundaries are, why they matter and how to set them without feeling selfish, mean or guilty. Through discussion, scenarios, role-play and reflection, participants will practice setting boundaries with family, friends, coworkers, partners and others.

Healthy boundaries are not about controlling other people. They are about knowing what you will and will not accept, and communicating it clearly.

You'll leave with
- Clarity on your personal limits
- Simple, guilt-free language for saying no
- Ways to respond when someone pushes back
- A personalized boundary plan you can start using right away

Workshop 07

Strong Women Need Support Too

Rest, Connection & Letting Others Pour Into You

Being strong does not mean being alone. Designed for women; men are welcome to attend.

Register on Eventbrite
Strong Women Need Support Too is an interactive six-hour workshop that reminds women that strength does not mean doing everything alone. It is designed for women, and men are welcome to attend.

Women are often expected to be strong, dependable and available for everyone around them. Over time, always being the one others rely on can make it hard to recognize your own needs, ask for help, receive support or admit when things feel overwhelming.

This workshop is a chance to step out of the role of the "strong one" and explore what it means to build a life with support, connection, rest and reciprocity. Participants will identify the people and resources they can turn to, examine beliefs that make receiving support difficult and develop strategies to strengthen their support networks.

Being strong does not mean being alone. You can be capable and still need support. You can give to others and let others pour into you.

You'll leave with
- A map of the people and resources you can turn to
- Insight into the beliefs that make receiving help hard
- Strategies for asking for and accepting support

6 Week Makeover

6 Week Makeover: An Introspective Guide to change is a six-week group designed for individuals seeking change and direction in their lives. Be it substance abuse, overeating, lack of money management, or repeated involvement in unhealthy relationships, most people want some type of desired change in order to have more fulfilling lives. This group is only six weeks, however, if participants fully participate and complete the work in and out of the group setting it will open up the door for introspection in order for the change process to begin. 6 Week Makeover is designed to touch inner thought, intellect, body, spirit, and the heart. Each group session will focus on each of those areas within the context of the lesson. Clients will have the opportunity to write out and explore their thoughts on worksheets and discussion within the group. The last 30 minutes of the group is devoted to self-love. Each group will end with a guided meditation followed by a standing Yoga pose.
