Design a New Personal Vision

When your spouse dies, you face an identity crossroad. You have not only lost a loved one but a role that defined you. You were a partner, caregiver, companion let alone the household duties!  There is no single direction to go in when discovering who you are now BUT there is a personal answer. Through this workshop you will begin to design a new vision of whom you are based on where you’ve been and make steps forward.
