Let’s consider your life as a story full of events, challenges and miracles—a chance to tell your story and share salient moments of your life. Join storyteller and artist Alexander Mackenzie in a 6-week experiential adventure of discovering storytelling, candid sharing, deep listening and renewed appreciation of your life.
Each week follows on to the next, and you will have the chance to look back, to be present and to contemplate next steps, pondering this in the company of your community. You will know what it is to discover Personal Resolve, your ability to keep finding the bigger picture.
SIGN UP FOR ALL 6 SESSIONS, THIS IS ONE WORKSHOP CONSISTING OF 6 WEEKLY SESSIONS.
Alexander Mackenzie is a storyteller and an artist. He has worked all of his life on these two pursuits. He is abundantly interested in what you have to say, how you own your story and the miracle of being you.
Week One: Early years—listening to each other’s earliest memories. When we encourage others to speak, we make it possible for them to also engage in our story.
Week Two: Thresholds—what were those portals of experience and people that formed your younger perspectives? This week we will pay attention to the special people in our life.
Week Three: Wonders—what were the events that made you ask questions, that made you stop in wonder? These are the roots of storytelling and are waiting patiently for you to speak out.
Week Four: Surprises—what surprises you about your choices? When did you take the road less travelled? When did you catch yourself saying “why on earth…” We all know these moments. Storytellers call them out.
Week Five: Important Next Steps—looking forward now, what will you do with this ‘one wild and precious life?’ What is important to attend to before you die?
Week Six: Storytelling Event—can you hone your story to share some of the miracle of it with others, and dare to share it with your community? This is the opportunity for taking that risk...
