About this Event
In 2010, during a crisis of meaning, Bonnie Wan wrote a creative brief for her life, and The Life Brief was born. Her resulting Life Brief not only saved her marriage but kicked off a decade of personal and professional adventure, paved with unexpected twists and unimaginable gifts. Today, Bonnie teaches others how to get clear, get creative, and get courageous about living without regret. When she’s not leading and teaching strategy, or declaring her next Life Brief, you’ll find her with her husband, four kids, and Charlie the dog, adventuring in nature and sleeping under the stars.
