Time: 6:30 - 8:00pm PT

Clarity isn't just a mindset; it's a compass for navigating complexity and ambiguity.

Join us for a transformative workshop with Bonnie Wan, renowned brand strategist, author of The Life Brief: A Playbook for No-Regrets Living, and former Partner at Goodby Silverstein & Partners. Bonnie will share a potent and proven methodology for cutting through noise and unlocking authentic, no-regrets living.

Drawing from decades of experience crafting creative strategies for global brands, Bonnie will demonstrate how the same principles can be applied to life itself, helping individuals find their essential truth and make meaningful impact.

This workshop will inspire you to:
• Make Meaning Out of Messiness: Bonnie introduces the foundational "Get Messy" phase, inviting each of us to ask: "What do you really want?" and "What's worth wanting?" Learn to acknowledge and re-frame limiting stories that hold your clients back, allowing them to distinguish their essential truth from external expectations or inherited scripts.

• Declare Your Boldest Desires: Learn the art of distillation, sifting through messy insights to pinpoint what's sacred and non-negotiable. Bonnie guides us to craft sharp, sticky action-driving declarations for what your clients want most in life.

• Take Meaningful Action: Action is a byproduct of clarity, not a result of immense toil or effort. You'll discover how to encourage tiny, irresistible, bite-sized steps that accumulate into significant and immediate change. The Life Brief acts as a compass, filter outing the noise and prioritize what truly matters, whether in relationships, work, community, or personal well-being. By aligning beliefs with behaviors, you'll witness how your authentic self fuels influence and impact.

For Coaches: This session will equip you with a hands-on, iterative practice and provides a simple yet powerful framework for guiding clients through uncertainty and into intentional action. In a world demanding authenticity and courage, The Life Brief methodology offers a path to help people re-imagine how they show up and what they serve.
