Healing through Story: Workplace Trauma and Resilience among Women

When working with women 1:1 through workplace adversity, the number one follow-up request was wanting to connect with other womens' stories meaningfully. This group session is the first step to creating a communal space where stories can be shared safely for the purposes of healing and support. You will:

Understand the collective experience of women navigating workplace adversity: Based on dozens of women we have served, what are the common adversities that mid-career women are facing? Why do women feel so isolated, and why is it so challenging to get support?
Participate in an experience of healing in the context of community -- with Rebecca’s facilitation, you will have an opportunity to step into a part of Karen’s story and practice helping someone else develop a narrative of resilience that facilitates healing after an adverse experience. (Stepping into someone else's story helps you process your own narrative of resilience).
Learn about the journey of healing and regaining self confidence after traumatic experiences, in the company of other women who get it.
Receive tools on how to write your narrative of resilience.

"Empowering, inspiring, soul-lifting. It helped me realize that I'm not alone."

"The generosity and care in the space helped me process what I've been through."

Please note that this is a confidential session. There will be no recordings. If cost stands in the way of you accessing this experience, please write to us.
