Facilitator-Guided Journaling Workshop

This 8-session workshop guides participants through a series of structured journaling practices designed to deepen self-awareness, clarify identity, strengthen personal agency, and expand emotional and relational intelligence. Each session focuses on a key dimension of inner development:

1) awareness of self

2) identity

3) power

4) time

5) motivation

6) attention

7) rules

8) perspective-taking 

Through guided teachings, reflective questions, and take-home practices, participants learn to see themselves and their relationships with greater clarity and compassion. This workshop is ideal for individuals navigating transition, seeking personal growth, or wanting to reconnect with their inner voice.

SESSION 6 FOCUS — ATTENTION
This session explores your relationship with attention—what you focus on, what you overlook, and how you shift between the details of life and the bigger picture. Attention is one of the most powerful tools in personal growth. When attention is narrow, we see tasks, problems, and immediate demands. When attention widens, we begin to notice patterns, emotions, relationships, and the subtle signals that shape our choices. This session helps you explore how your attention operates and how you can expand it intentionally.

No need to attend all workshops. Feel free to only come to those that interest you.

Led by Shabnam Curtis, certified Integral Life Coach and published memoirist.
