About this event
- Event lasts 1 day 5 hours
“Designing Your Life for Women” is a powerful, hands-on workshop experience where you will learn and apply the Life Design© method to your own life.
Taught by Kathy Davies, Managing Director of the Stanford Life Design Lab and Catherine Dalipe, certified DYL Instructor and DYL Coach, this innovative workshop gives you the opportunity to learn and practice ideas and tools contained in the NYT bestselling Designing Your Life, How to Build a Well-Lived, Joyful Life in a life design community.
You will participate in highly interactive activities, reframing dysfunctional beliefs, exploring the social and personal narratives that shape us, and digging into design tools to increase your creativity and confidence. We will focus on balance and energy, use ideation techniques to help get you unstuck, build Odyssey Plans for three potential futures, and define ways to prototype the compelling parts of these futures. Throughout the experience, we will take moments to relfect and integrate what we are learning. Best of all, you will do this in a community with women who have come together with a common purpose and who will support you on this life design journey.
This one and a half day retreat includes:
- Workshop sessions from 8:00 am - 6:30 pm on Saturday and 8:00 am -1:30 pm on Sunday
- Breakfast both days, and lunch and a wine and cheese reception on Saturday
- A Designing Your Life for Women Workbook for your exercises and reflections
