i want to experience wellbeing while i'm learning, not add another "to-do" to my list.
I'm not looking for extra time on my computer! I'd love a creative approach to learning and connection.
I'm overwhelmed by resources and don't know where to start.
THEre's a lot of information out there on wellbeing and resilience. i'd like some help finding research-based tools.
wellbeing is a priority, but It's hard to find the time to research the best solutions and supports.
the pandemic has made even more clear the importance of wellbeing; i want to support myself and my family/colleagues/students.

"I have attended several of Dana's wellbeing sessions and have learned more from a few hours with her than I have in years of University! She is able to explain different practices around wellbeing in a way that is simple, practical and impactful. Her knowledge and passion is contagious and I always leave energized and with amazing ideas I can implement in my school division."

The impact of Dana's sessions causes a ripple effect from staff to students. We even had a couple of students create a wellbeing support group after a session led by a teacher informed by Dana's topics. Her sessions energized staff and improved their sense of hope that they were capable of dealing with the emotional aspects of teaching online and the pandemic.

"Dana's in-depth knowledge and relevant background have played an important role in professional learning in our organization ... she has worked with us to raise the level of awareness of the broad and deep nature of wellness, and implement helpful and practical positive psychology topics related to personal and workplace wellbeing that are backed by science and research."
