The world we live in doesn’t allow much time for quiet reflection... Things pile up in our hearts that become hard to examine later. But maybe it’s time to dust off those memories and see if you’re ready to heal? My friend Amaka is an excellent therapist, as well as being a very kind and creative person. She’s a licensed professional counselor, an artist, and a writer. That's why Difficult Friends, our arts & humanities club, is hosting her for a free workshop covering gentle journaling techniques. Amaka will be teaching us simple tools for processing those memories that linger 📝 Please join us for an evening of writing, reflection, and meaningful conversation at BRB Coffee on September 14. And don't forget to bring a pen and notebook! xoxo your difficult friend Rachel ✨ Your Hosts ✨ Your hosts for this event will be local artists Amaka Agulue and Rachel Summer Cheong (me lol).
