“Through this experience, we were able to uncover new pathways, solutions to questions we didn’t know we had, and new connections. I’m forever grateful and highly recommend anyone who is exploring and might be interested to stop hesitating and just go for it! You won’t be disappointed by your experience, whatever you’re seeking, you’ll find it.."
"Attending Shanice's workshop was a transformative journey. Her commitment to community and radical collaboration shines through every session. The insights gained have empowered me to approach life with a new perspective, emphasizing both success and genuine connection."
"This workshop is a must for anyone seeking a life pivot. Her unique approach, blending design principles with a focus on belonging, creates a dynamic learning environment. I left feeling inspired “
“Shanice, did an excellent job of asking questions that push you to think expansively about how you want to spend your energy. Through guided reflection, I realized more about who I am and what I want to do with this one precious life I have. I really appreciated the balance between reflecting on what's possible and thinking tactically about what should come next. And this whole experience was made all the more impactful by the beautiful community we had. Dancing together. Laughing lots. Pushing each other. It reminded me that reflection work doesn't need to be hard or lonely; it can be fun, uplifting, and inspiring when you have the right people by your side. Grateful for this experience and highly recommend it to others!."
