SUMMARY:It's Your Life: Living with Intention [Rock Row]
DESCRIPTION:No group October 8.\n\n\n“We have two lives\, and the second begins when we realize we only have one.”\n\nA cancer diagnosis can bring that realization uncomfortably close. But it also can offer a sobering clarity. It creates a rare opening to step back from the roles\, expectations\, and old scripts that have shaped your life and ask some honest questions: What really matters to me now? How do I want to use the time I have? What does it mean to live my life?\n\nIt’s Your Life is a six-week reflective workshop series for men at any stage of the cancer journey. Through guided reflection\, small-group conversation\, and honest sharing\, we’ll explore how to bring the clarity that can come with facing cancer into the choices we make about how we want to live. There are no recipes and no right answers—just an opportunity to explore these questions alongside other men who are asking some of them\, too.\n\nOpen to adult male identifying Dempsey Center client with a cancer diagnosis at any stage.\n\nLed by Yosh Beier\, Certified Hakomi Therapist\, Mediator and Executive Coach with over 20 years of experience facilitating groups.

SUMMARY:It's Your Life: Living with Intention [Rock Row]
DESCRIPTION:No group October 8.\n\n\n“We have two lives\, and the second begins when we realize we only have one.”\n\nA cancer diagnosis can bring that realization uncomfortably close. But it also can offer a sobering clarity. It creates a rare opening to step back from the roles\, expectations\, and old scripts that have shaped your life and ask some honest questions: What really matters to me now? How do I want to use the time I have? What does it mean to live my life?\n\nIt’s Your Life is a six-week reflective workshop series for men at any stage of the cancer journey. Through guided reflection\, small-group conversation\, and honest sharing\, we’ll explore how to bring the clarity that can come with facing cancer into the choices we make about how we want to live. There are no recipes and no right answers—just an opportunity to explore these questions alongside other men who are asking some of them\, too.\n\nOpen to adult male identifying Dempsey Center client with a cancer diagnosis at any stage.\n\nLed by Yosh Beier\, Certified Hakomi Therapist\, Mediator and Executive Coach with over 20 years of experience facilitating groups.
