Topic: Strength In Uncertainty- Panel Discussion

We find ourselves in an epic in-between. An unpredictable moment in history between the fall of old systems and the birth of the new.

So what might it mean to be strong during this time? What practices of awareness might we cultivate in order to be together in uncertainty? How might our strength enable healing and evolution?

Join us for a riveting discussion as we unpack the definitions, assumptions and solutions our panelists have uncovered.
