Baggage Claim: Go Get Your Stuff!

For Girls & Women, College & University, Corporations & Non-profits Areas of Focus: Mental Health/Wellness | Overcoming Adversity | Girls & Women Empowerment Pursue self-care through a lifestyle that encourages you to recover things in your life that have been lost, stolen, and/or are missing. These things can include but are not limited to, your confidence, motivation, identity, peace of mind, your voice, self-love, your dreams, mindset, relationships, etc. Many of us are preparing to travel to greater heights but failed to take inventory before we left. Therefore, we find ourselves experiencing more turbulence in the air, we find ourselves paying for things that we already own, and we find ourselves delayed because we go back for things we no longer need. Drawing from the experiences one could have in an airport environment while traveling, we will embark on a journey that prepares participants to cope with expected and unexpected turbulence in a healthy way. We will “Seek the root to determine the route.”
