Civic Engagement in the Digital Age: Gaining & Maintaining Conscious Connections

‍
Workshop Description: As the globe increases its access and use of digital communication, I have wondered what are some tips and tricks we should be using to consciously connect with one another? What does it look like to serve others without face-to-face communication? How do we keep ourselves full knowing we must change the way we "do" community building? It seems as if we hop from one Zoom meeting to another and miss opportunities to fully engage with our friends and most importantly, our communities.

‍
During this workshop, we will discuss how to not only create authentic and conscious connections with our communities, but how to maintain those connections across digital platforms. Most importantly, I want to help us stay "full" while we learn about new ways to serve our communities.
‍

Audience: Change Agents (current & future), Organization Leaders, Social Conscious Business Owners, Activists, Mothers, and anyone seeking divine connections with others.

‍
The instructions on how to join the Video Conference will be emailed to all registered participants prior to the workshop.
