ASAP! Summer Camp
Presented by Eric Frenette
Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected? This insightful presentation offers practical tools to help you reconnect with your inner purpose and move forward with clarity. Drawing from mindfulness practices, cognitive reframing techniques, and core principles of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), we’ll explore how to navigate life’s challenges with greater intention. Whether you’re coping with anxiety, depression, grief, or simply adjusting to a new season of life, this session offers guidance for rediscovering purpose—both from a spiritual perspective and a grounded, everyday one.
Lunch is included.
