It is undeniable that the quality of our relationships makes or breaks our personal happiness.
Research tells us when our friendships and relationships are strong and healthy, life is good. On the other hand, when our relationships bring out the worst in us, or when we lack social connections and friendships, we are prone to anxiety, depression and loneliness.
We are invested in creating the kind of happiness that grows from the inside out, starting with self-awareness and the effective expression of who you are. The foundation of The Happy Lesbian 101 is self-awareness , effective self-expression, gratitude and forgiveness. In this workshop, you will develop skills to understand your thoughts and feelings better, as well as how to express them effectively.
Our goal is to help you build the kind of relationships that foster happiness. We know that this requires self-disclosure (the revealing of your thoughts, feelings and concerns). Without this level of disclosure, having friends or a partner would still feel lonely.
The Happy Lesbian 101 workshop is an introduction to the most important ingredient of healthy relationships: self-awareness and self-expression. This is also known as communication.
Great relationships are created by people who cultivate safe, accepting environments for reciprocal self-disclosure and revealing oneself to each other.
