SUMMARY:EXPAND & TRANSFORM (KITCHENER): A Women's Self-Empowerment Workshop
DESCRIPTION:A 3-hour transformational experience for women who are ready to go deeper.📍 The Village at 1883 | Kitchener📅 Sunday\, July 5th⏰ 11:00 AM – 2:00 PMDo you ever feel like you’re meant for more\, but you’re not sure what that “more” actually is? Maybe you’ve been feeling it for a while now… That pull toward something different. Your next chapter… An enhanced version of yourself with a more fulfilling and adventurous way of living. You know you’re growing because you’re becoming more self-aware; outgrowing old patterns\, old ways of thinking\, old relationships\, and even old versions of yourself. But you still find yourself asking: “What am I supposed to do next?”“What is my purpose?”“Why do I feel called toward something bigger but can’t quite see it clearly?”If that’s you\, you’re not alone\, this room was created for you.
