Learning About Life

For many of us who have received 16+ years of formal schooling, how we should conduct our lives is still unclear. How do we forge relationships? How do we develop our careers? What are our criteria for personal success?

This 3-day in-person seminar is designed for those in their 20’s to understand how to begin a successful career. (1st Installment of the Life Mastery and Transformation Program) This program will provide foundational frameworks about life, relationships, and career to help participants make sense of this stage of life. Participants will be able to reflect and develop personally meaningful guideposts for their future.

“In the beginning I was so young and such a stranger to myself that I hardly existed. I had to go out in the world and see it and hear it and react to it before I knew at all who I was, what I was, and what I wanted to be.” ~ Mary Oliver, from A Sense of Wonder
