*Coming Home to Self
A six-session series meeting every two weeks on Thursday evenings, 7 - 9:30pm 
March 4 & 18, April 1, 15, 29, May 13
Tuition: $249
Limit: 20 participants, offered to women only  

Weaving writing exercises with coaching techniques, facilitators, Nan Fisher and Dawn Diebold will lead you on a journey of greater connection to your truest, deepest self.   Participants can hope to gain greater clarity, stronger sense of self, increased confidence, enhanced creativity, and sharper focus toward a new direction.  Through individual writing, small and large group work, and application of the exercises and techniques, participants will be more motivated and energized to take action from a place of greater awareness and personal power. 

Note: Coming Home to Self differs from WWf(a)C Core courses in that each session focuses on a specific theme.  Writing is a large part of our process, and we use writing techniques, journaling, fastwrites, and other writing exercises to guide you toward personal transformation. However, Coming Home to Self is not a writing course. 

Participants include those who are interested in:
effectively navigating life changes, living more fully and intentionally, seeking connection with self and others, becoming who you know you could be, and translating desire into reality; ideas into action
