    Title:  Re-Light My Fire Workshop

    Description:  

    Keeping your motivational torch lit is always a careful balance. With all the things requiring our attention, drawing on our energy, pulling at our emotions, it is way too easy to get out of whack. Especially when the lines between work and home life have become so blurred for so many of us during the COVID-19 pandemic. And as we begin to return to what was our former normal, new challenges arise. How do we recover the energy, excitement and sense of camaraderie?  

    The Re-Light My Fire workshop is a customized highly interactive experience designed to rekindle team spirit and relight our individual motivational fire. This engaging workshop will cover topics such as dealing with change, team-building, personal and professional resilience, motivational leadership, balance and self-reflection. The workshop-style program features individual and small-group improvisational exercises, storytelling, lots of humor, and maybe even some magic to illustrate key points and keep attendees engaged.      

    Participants will come away with a new sense of purpose, a plan to maintain balance, and newfound connections to their teammates.
