  • Who Are You? Join Our Free Self Growth Workshop

    Hey everyone, my name is Paige Long and I am a sophomore at the University of Connecticut. Over the past few months, my team and I, along with Sociology Professor Bradley Wright, have been working hard to develop a workshop to help individuals attain more meaningful and purposeful lives. Given the stress of COVID-19 and the lack of mental health resources available across the nation, I invite each of you to join our workshop and meet individuals from across the UConn community as you develop the skills needed to live a more meaningful life. 

    Posted below are more details about the program: 

     

    How can one attain a meaningful life without knowing what it is that they value? 

    In this workshop, we will demonstrate that many people live their lives without the framework necessary to achieve true purpose. We will help you identify a set of “core values,” and demonstrate how to live your life according to your self-identified value structure so as to realize a meaningful life.

    This workshop will take place over two, 45 minute zoom meetings. In between meetings you will be given one, ten minute reflective assignment to support your growth and learning.

    Meeting 1: Thursday, Sept. 24th from 5:00pm to 5:45pm

    Meeting 2 (Optional): Saturday, Sept. 26th from 5:00pm to 5:45pm
