Program Description

Event Details

This mini-retreat is dedicated to play, connection, and trust and is based on themes from Joseph Campbell's "The Hero With a Thousand Faces". The goal is to facilitate an opportunity for bonding with others on the same path and, most importantly, with one’s true self. Guided by a clinical psychologist and a life coach, go deep with exercises of cultural exploration, using the hero’s journey as the theme to examine the expectations of masculinity.  Who decides what models of masculinity we follow?  How does this serve or does not serve ourselves or the people we care about? 

Registrants will receive a free copy of "The Hero With a Thousand Faces" by Joseph Campbell

Facilitators:

Dr. Mark Jesinoski

Since 2008, Mark has balanced his practice as a clinical psychologist with exploring his journey through art. His approach is intended to be integrative in nature and thus goes far beyond traditional community-based private practice. His intention is to help individuals grow through the learning, trauma, and training of their lives to become highly present-minded, resilient, focused, and compassionate individuals.  https://www.markjesinoski.com/

Greg Snaer

Greg is a coach, speaker, communication specialist, and facilitator. He’s served as a coach and advocate since 2005, helping people become more fulfilled in their careers, relationships, and lives, and more effectively communicate and lead. His coaching practice is inclusive of, but not exclusive to, BIPOC and neurodiverse individuals.  https://www.snaerzengerprojects.com
