<h3><strong><strong>Still Here: </strong></strong><strong><strong>Building Resilience in an Unpredictable World</strong></strong></h3><h4><em><strong><strong>A Transformational Workshop with Lisa Lampanelli</strong></strong></em></h4>

<h4>*ONLY 15 SPOTS AVAILABLE<em><em>*</em></em></h4><h4><br></h4>

<p>“Still Here: Building Resilience in an Unrpredictable World” is a workshop developed by former comedian and current creativity coach Lisa Lampanelli. Life is an endless series of “both/and”s: both fulfilling and disappointing; both joyful and frustrating; both inspiring and uncertain—sometimes all within the same hour!</p><p>How do we keep going when things don’t go our way? How do we weather rejection, disappointment, uncertainty, comparison, and the inevitable ups and downs without losing our connection to ourselves, others, and the work we love?</p><p>Through storytelling, sharing, meditation, journaling, brainstorming, deep listening, and self-reflection, this workshop will explore what it means to build real resilience: not by toughening up or pretending things don’t hurt, but by learning how to meet setbacks, uncertainty, and change with greater self-trust, flexibility, courage, and humor.</p><p>Participants will leave with practical tools for staying grounded, recovering from disappointment, and continuing to move forward in this wild, weird, wonderful life.</p>
