🌸 “Who are you?” is a question that can easily catch most of us off guard.
🌻 With external pressures, we often catch ourselves being drowned in titles that were assigned to us. Despite it being a “normal” societal process, if completely unchecked, it can negatively affect one's motivation, self-esteem, and overall mental state. A clear understanding of identity and its fluid nature is crucial to building a solid foundation for life.
“Who am I?” is a question we can only honestly ask ourselves when we get a chance to slow down, explore, and reassess. With this workshop, we would like to offer you that space. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
☕️ Materials will be provided, but feel free to bring your own notebook and favorite pen. We will provide hot and cold beverages, snacks and you can also bring your own to share.
We really hope to see you there. 🦋
