Details

This interactive workshop introduces ideas and tools for navigating life transitions that support healing, growth, and wellbeing. Through brief teaching, guided reflection, and experiential practices, participants will explore change with greater clarity and ease. Drawing on the Spiral Model and the 4A4C framework developed by Dr. Ciupak, participants will be invited to reflect on their current life phase and gently envision and manifest an ideal self.

Adulthood 101 is a workshop series focused on improving wellbeing through honing practical life skills. This series creates a supportive space to explore topic areas that some may feel hesitant to ask about, such as food safety, car care, grief and healing, and managing other responsibilities. By normalizing learning and growth as an adult, Adulthood 101 aims to reduce stress, build confidence, and empower participants to feel more capable and supported in their day to day lives.
