8 Weeks of Self-Discovery, SPRING 2020

8 Weeks of Self-Discovery: Kickoff Session
Thank you to everyone who joined the kickoff session of 8 Weeks of Self-Discovery on Friday, April 3, 2020.
We enjoyed hearing some of the reasons that you are participating including: “doing something for myself” and “taking time to explore and share in a safe place for Black women.”
We’re excited to share this journey with you!
WEEK 1: WAYS OF EXPERIENCING
This week, we are asked to live our moments. Pay attention to what you are experiencing by way of our five senses:
Notice what you smell, taste, touch, hear, and see
Journal about joyful moments along the way
