"The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away" - Pablo Picasso
Strength: Wider Perspective & Bravery / Practice: Courage, Humanity
Erica, Loren, Barry, Shawn: It was such an honour and gift to spend time with you. This workshop aims to support participants (youth and elders) to grow deep connections and a sense of belonging. Participants will then be invited to continue their connections and dialogues in a small ‘Community of Practice’.
There seems to be a polarity: On one hand I am so aware that you four are powerful professionals with full and busy lives. On the other hand we also need spaces where we decompress and get nurtured through deep connections. I would love to invite you to consider the options to ACT below. Warmly, Arnd
Act:
- Social Connections: Three of the TED talks (Shane, Eleanor, Kakenya) around which we connected, are a part of the TED Radio Hour Overcoming (Links to an external site.). If it feels right/nurturing to you and your current life situation, I would love to invite you to be a part of three sessions (weekly) around other TED Radio Hours in order to: 1) create content for intergenerational dialogue groups; and 2) explore pathways for ’emotionally sustainable activism’ through deep connections.
- Self Care: If it feels most nurturing for you to bow out and spend this time with your loved ones or with the things that nurture you most, then you are invited and encouraged to follow that need. Please feel entirely free in your choice.
