The significance of childhood experience

• Understanding your implicit (unconscious) memory and how it influences you.
• Exploring conflict and shame as threat brain triggers.

Owning our shadow

• Understanding the shadow self.
• Meeting and living with our shadow.

Loss (letting go)

• Exploring the stories we tell about ourselves and how our attachment to these narratives might help or hinder our growth.
• What must we give up in order to grow? What must we keep?
