Design Your Lift, Discern Your Path with Dr. Mary O’Neil:

• Sunday, May 31: Ideating and Prototyping Your Possible Futures, 2pm-4pm in person | Register HERE
  Feeling stuck, lost in transition, or unable to move forward? You are not alone! This two-part life design workshop offers a practical, creative, and surprisingly joyful process for finding clarity about who you are, what you value, and where you want to go next. Drawing on Stanford's Designing Your Life and the Life Design Catalyst methods, the sessions will help you identify your purpose and values, take a clear-eyed look at where you are now, explore possible futures you haven't yet imagined, and take small, concrete steps toward the life that feels right--and that serves something greater than yourself.
