Daring Way™ Workshops
The Daring Way™ is experiential-based curricula developed by the research of Dr. Brené Brown. Her ground-breaking research has changed what we understand about shame, vulnerability, worthiness, and courage.
Workshop participants will learn about how feelings, thoughts, and experiences connect to how we see ourselves and function in the world. The workshop experience is a safe space to explore how to be vulnerable, build shame resilience skills, and seek wholehearted, authentic choices. Participants will leave these workshops with helpful skills to practice in daily life.
Dr. Kathleen W. Webb is a Certified Facilitator of the Daring Way™ and is passionate about guiding individuals to understand themselves and make choices that lead to healthier, more fulfilling lives.
