Create a Life Board for Life
Success
If you were captivated by The Secret, but felt
confused by how to tap into the power of the
Law of Attraction then this is the class for
you! This creative, fun workshop will help
you design a tool to help you focus on achieving
the goals and dreams you have for your
life —a Life Board! We’ll start with a visioning
exercise, and then you’ll get to create your
own visual reminder of what it is you want in
your life. Part collage, part art project, but all
you! Please bring pictures, words, symbols,
stickers or anything else you may want to
use to create your own personal vision. No
creativity or artistic nature required; just
bring your dreams and get ready to have fun
as you take the time to focus on your desire
for a fulfilled future.

Create a Step Family that Thrives
Blending families can take time and effort
and sometimes a little outside help, and
we're here to offer the information you need
to help make your new step-family a happy
one! We'll share tools that will help you gain
a better understanding of yourself and your
future family members. Your instructor is
a step-parent and she has the information
you need if you are thinking about beginning
a blended family, are new to one, or
have discovered that the one you have isn’t
quite working as well as you’d like. Your new,
blended family can have a joyful, loving and
healthy future and we're here to share how
you can make that happen.

Dale Carnegie was Wrong!

turned to the works of Dale Carnegie to
increase their interpersonal effectiveness and

right? In this new workshop you'll discover

influence people" as we explore creating a
great first impression, how to speak honestly

and how to give and receive criticism
constructively. Join us to reach new levels
of personal and professional success...Dale
Carnegie was actually right!

Résumé Magic
Take a look at your current résumé…would
you want to hire yourself? Is your résumé
targeted to a specific position, or are you still
using the one-size-fits-all, shotgun approach
to getting a job? If your résumé reads more
like everyone else’s instead of showcasing
your unique skill set and most distinguishing
professional characteristics, then this class is
designed just for you! Learn from a résumé
professional how to breathe new life and
character into your tired résumés and cover
letters. We’ll cover both content and format,
so bring along copies of your current résumé
and cover letter if you have them. In today’s
job market you can’t be “average”, bring your
questions to this fun new workshop and
receive helpful hints from a career education
professional.
