How can I better adapt when things change? How do I keep up with the pace of change? How can I move towards the life I want? What processes and methods can I use to see choices, create options and make plans? The Designing Your Life workshop actively engages these questions and more in a hands-on experience applying design thinking to living well and intentionally. Join us for a light dinner, important conversations, and life design.
Phoenix Flopshop
Monday, Dec. 2, Noon to 1:30 pm

How do I recognize and grow from failures? How might I use ‘flops’ as an opportunity for growth? Join us for this interactive lunch workshop designed to help participants harness failure as a source for growth. This workshop explores concepts of failure, resiliency, and grit. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of what it means to fail forward versus failing flat.
Not able to make these workshops, but still want to get practice with Design Thinking tools and mindsets?
