About this Event

Let’s do it through play, inward reflection, and shared conversations!

Join Brett Macdonald and Jenn Forgie for this one-day creative workshop exploring the questions and curiosities around this theme.

During the day you'll experience:

  • Creative writing prompts
  • Playful improv activities
  • Shared Conversations
  • Laughter and moments of surprise

No journaling or improv experience necessary! Just bring your curiosity and a willingness to explore and play together.

Whether you join us on your own or with a friend, this workshop is for anyone longing to feel more connected to themselves, to others, and to their communities.

You'll leave feeling a little lighter, a little more connected, and inspired to create more moments of belonging in your everyday life.

Come as you are.

The rest, we'll create together. ✨
