Workshop Details:
Class Description:
PART 1: Goal Setting Workshop
Jessica Rae’s goal setting workshop will allow you to visualize your goals, narrow them down, prioritize your list and put them into a simple action plan. If you attended the Vision Workshop, please bring in your notes/visual map. This workshop will include interactive-timed exercise followed by goal setting worksheets. Our goal for goal setting will be to leave with your top 3 goals and a better understanding on achieving them with clarity.
PART 2: Vision Board Crafting
Vision Mapping is a workshop that allows you to unlock ideals, define goals and map out your goals and dreams through interactive exercises. Each vision exercise is designed to connect to a deeper understanding of yourself while discovering your passion and motivation you may or may not know about. By the end of this workshop, you will have a collective list of mapped out goals for yourself followed by our vision board crafting. Take home this visualization and begin working on your vision goals for 2024. The Goal Setting section prior will continue creating accountability from this workshop.
