​🤍 RESPECT: Protect What Matters

​A values-driven workshop to reconnect with yourself and explore how to protect what matters through reflection, connection, and plant meditation.

​Drawing on the Becoming You® Methodology developed by Professor Suzy Welch, combined with a guided plant meditation.

​Nature is slowing down, just as life seems to be speeding up.

As the holidays approach, our calendars fill with commitments, responsibilities, and expectations. We give our time and energy to so many things, often without stopping to ask what we need ourselves.

​What if we gave our own needs the same attention and respect we give to everyone else’s?

How can we notice when we're overriding them, and choose to honor them instead?

​RESPECT is an intimate evening to pause, reconnect with yourself, and explore how to honor what matters, even when life asks more of you.

​Building on the values uncovered through your Values Bridge® assessment, we’ll reflect on what needs more of our attention and how we want to protect it in the season ahead. A somatic plant meditation with Martyna Skalna will offer a sensory way to slow down, reconnect with your body, and notice the signals that can help you understand what you need.

​Together, we’ll explore one meaningful commitment to yourself, a promise you can carry into everyday life. That might take the form of a boundary, a request, or an agreement with yourself in the season ahead.

​🌿 Who this is for

​This workshop is for women who:

• ​Feel pulled in many directions as the year gets busier

• ​Want to stay connected to what matters while caring for others

• ​Find themselves overriding their needs or saying yes when they mean no

• ​Want to make choices that honor their values, time, and energy

​✨ What you’ll experience

​Together, we will:

• ​Slow down through grounding and guided reflection

• ​Revisit your Values Bridge® results and choose one value to protect

• ​Take part in a somatic plant meditation to reconnect with your body and instincts

• ​Shape one meaningful commitment to yourself and practice putting it into words

​🌱 What you’ll leave with

• ​Greater clarity on what you want to protect this season

• ​One meaningful commitment to yourself that you can carry into everyday life

• ​A body-based check-in you can return to when deciding how to respond

• ​A personal reminder to help you stay connected to your commitment

​🍂 The Bloom Fall Series:

First, we Return to what matters. Then, we Release what no longer deserves so much of our energy. Finally, we explore how to Respect and protect that space as life asks more of us.

​RESPECT is tentatively followed by Bloomsgiving on November 18, a closing gathering to celebrate the connections and insights created along the way.

​Each workshop stands alone while building on a shared journey. Participants who continue through the series will enjoy preferred pricing for upcoming gatherings. There's no obligation to continue.
