Identity Awareness

This exercise helps you explore the geography of who you are and the people, places, and experiences that have shaped you. When done in groups, you'll discover points of connection with others and disrupt the ‘single story’ you may carry about one another.

This practice helps you reconnect to your stories, your history & lineage of biological and chosen family, and perhaps parts of yourself that have felt lost or invisible. 

This practice helps you cultivate an even deeper sense of connection to ‘who you are & what you represent’: building your confidence in yourself and helping you notice & appreciate what others bring to the world.
