Workshop / Presentation Spoken Word: The Connectors Join us in the journey across words and into the jungles of our spirits. Gather with us to be present to our pain and our joy, our stress and our hope, our confusion and our rebellious aliveness! We will write, write, share, listen and grow in a good way as we tap into our ability to express and connect!
