Uncertainty Tolerance: What We Do When We Don’t Know

​Uncertainty is not just a mental challenge; it’s a psychological and nervous system experience.

​Building Uncertainty Tolerance: What We Do When We Don’t Know is a 90-minute reflective workshop exploring how humans respond to ambiguity, open-ended situations, and the absence of clear answers. Drawing from psychological research on uncertainty tolerance, attachment, and embodied regulation, this gathering examines why not knowing can feel so destabilizing and what actually helps us remain oriented when clarity isn’t available.

​Through a blend of short lecture, guided journaling, reflective exercises, and optional group discussion, participants will explore:

• ​Why uncertainty activates anxiety, rumination, and urgency

• ​How personal narratives shape our relationship to control and ambiguity

• ​The role of the nervous system in responding to the unknown

• ​Practical ways to build steadiness without forcing resolution

​This workshop is for anyone navigating transition, waiting, or unanswered questions and who wants to relate to uncertainty with more capacity, understanding, and self-trust.

​No prior experience necessary. Come as you are.
