Uncovering Me: Exploring Authenticity and Self Perception

Description

Life and connections are alive and well at Thrive Ahead Co.! We’re excited to invite you—and anyone you feel could benefit—to our upcoming workshop: 'Exploring Authenticity & Self Perception,' the second event in our Uncovering Me series. In our practice, we frequently hear clients say things like: - 'I tend to focus on the negatives and have a harder time seeing what’s good and positive in myself.' - 'I’m constantly feel like I’m not measuring up, and it’s really shaking my confidence.' - 'How I see myself really holds me back socially and even at work—I’m always second-guessing myself.' - 'I know I’m hard on myself but it’s really taking a toll. It’s draining and effecting everything I do.' This interactive workshop will guide participants through understanding and reframing their self-perceptions. Key topics will include: - The Four Aspects of Body Image: Perceptual, Affective, Cognitive, Behavioral - Recognizing and overcoming Cognitive Distortions such as all-or-nothing thinking, overgeneralization, and mental filtering - Developing strategies to shift from negative self-talk toward supportive, compassionate self-talk - Engaging in reflective exercises and community discussions to nurture a healthier relationship with the body and self Facilitated by: Laura Young, Licensed Mental Health Therapist and Art Therapist Kaylie Short, Licensed Mental Health Therapist Maggie Goodman, Mental Performance Coach and Personal Trainer Details: 📅 Date: Saturday, July 12 🕙 Time: 10 AM – 12 Noon 📍 Location: 1828 W.
