Unlocking Childhood with Mary Hewitt

This session examines the impacts of societal messaging and pressures (“the cultural backpack”) on the educator today and explores ways to “return to self”—following intuition instead of expectation—and approach life and work from a place of being ‘well’ (according to their own inner compass) , instead of being ‘good’ (according to other’s standards, needs, and expectations).

This highly-liberating, heart-opening session is sure to empower educators to let go of what’s unhelpful and diminishing…allowing true nourishment and intentional living to emerge both professionally and personally.
