Leaders across the organizational spectrum are facing challenges and uncertainty like never before. These unprecedented circumstances, however, present innovative and entrepreneurially-minded leaders an opportunity to pivot, thrive and grow.
At Furman Innovation and Entrepreneurship and our Center for Corporate and Professional Development, we want to provide you the tools to LEAD IN TIMES OF CRISIS. We are launching a 6-week virtual series of free workshops with industry experts for corporate, entrepreneurial and non-profit leaders who need the tools to lead their organizations in times of uncertainty.
Join us every Thursday for a FREE engaging and interactive 45-minute virtual workshop.
Now is a stressful time! In this session, Cam Houser will lead an interactive session around best practices for resilience and mental health for knowledge workers. This session will remain grounded in real-world, proven approaches–no crystal healing or new age music here. It will, however, require an open mind and a willingness to experiment with a guided meditation. Cam has delivered these sessions to teams at National Instruments, Samsung, and the Texas Lottery Commission.
Find your zen during this stressful time. Miranda Peterson of Asheville yoga hike company Namaste in Nature has developed a series of free, online videos to help you relax. From a 10-minute sensory meditation to a gentle, immune boosting yoga asana practice, these videos are designed to “calm and support your immune system.”

neurobiological effects of restrictive dieting and we will leave with an understanding of

ps If you miss the live meditation, check our website later in the day. We will be uploading all recordings.
Women, now more than ever, it’s essential to continue building our connection with Self and in turn with others.
To recognize and express our knowing, our truth and feel the fullness of our being. No more apologies, no more waiting for permission to be who we are in the world. Now is the time. The world needs us fully expressed!
No more hiding aspects of ourselves in order to keep others around us comfortable. Let’s be with all of it- our wisdom, our messiness, our hurts, our desires all in a safe and intimate container.
This class is limited to 10 women. Each week will be guided by a powerful theme. We’ll be using the tools of Authentic Relating and Circling to get curious, to be with each other with deep listening, embracing all that arises as we learn to slow down, notice the nuance of our experience, and articulate that with each other.
The Cost: pay what you can. Suggested range $50-$175
Class schedule: Mondays 2:30-4:30pm
April 6th- May 11th
Cost will include a 30 min one on one with Cathy, weekly class, Inclusion in private FB group.
