CALLINGS: FINDING AND FOLLOWING AN AUTHENTIC VOICE*
Lecture and Workshop with Gregg Levoy
Friday night, January 21, 7:00 - 9:00 PM and Saturday, January 22, 9:00 AM-4:00 PM
Any leap you want to make in your life that will align or re-align you with your passion and sense of
purpose, with your deepest values, with a fit between who you are and what you do is, by definition,
a calling-----an urging from the deep self that tells you what it will take to make your life literally “come true.” That calling could be to make a career change or creative leap, take on a new role or let go of an old one, launch a new venture, come back to current ventures with renewed passion and commitment,
or simply make a course-correction in your life or work. This hands-on workshop will take a creative
approach to the challenges of listening and responding to those calls.
The key issues explored will be:
* Articulating and clarifying your callings
* Working with the resistance that naturally arises
* Identifying who and what can help you make the changes
* Creating an action plan of specific steps to anchor your callings in the world
* Gaining a renewed sense of direction and possiblities
