Fall 2025 Write@Work:
Transitions & Imagining “the Next”

Oct. 22 - Nov. 19, 2025

As our workplaces and communities shift, journaling becomes a way to process transitions, hold space for tension, and begin imagining what comes next. The goal is not to erase the difficulty but to grow resilience, restore connection, and envision possibilities together. This 5-week virtual workshop series carves out space for reflection during a season of upheaval. By registering for the opening session, you are agreeing to attend all 5 sessions to the best of your ability. The final session will be in person and will begin with a group luncheon at 11:30 am.
