Workshops & Gatherings

Join us every month as we come together to learn, share, and explore the many ways ritual and ceremony can be woven into our daily lives.

Rituals for Job Loss

A free ritual workshop surrounding career changes

Date: May 26th

Time: 4 – 5pm PST (check your time zones)

Losing a job, being laid off, retiring or starting a new job can be a difficult experience and we rarely carve out time to acknowledge the many emotions that can surround these experiences.
 
Join celebrants Megan Sheldon and Nicole Sammut as we explore meaningful ways to create personal and community rituals surrounding changes in our career.
 
This conversation will explore themes such as:
  • Anticipating a layoff and sitting with uncertainty
  • Supporting friends and colleagues who have lost their job
  • How organizations and companies can step up
  • Starting a new job or ending an old job
  • Ceremonies for retirement, promotions, and new jobs

This free community gathering will offer people the chance to share, connect and explore their own relationship with job loss (including past losses that never went acknowledged). 

We invite those joining live to have videos turned on so we can connect as a community and share our own experiences. This event will be recorded and sent to registered participants the following day.
