Workshop: Your Hero’s Journey and Your Personal Avatar

In this engaging 3-hour workshop, participants are guided through a reflective process to explore the elements of their own hero’s journey. They’ll identify their core values and personal mission, examine the challenges they’ve faced, and recognize both their inner strengths and external sources of support. Through this self-discovery, each participant will design and create a prototype avatar—a symbolic figure that represents their journey, values, and sources of resilience. This avatar serves as a personal reminder of who they are, where they’ve been, and the path they’re committed to following. Participants will also be inspired by examples of different avatars they might create. 
The workshop is led by Rev. Dr. Patricia Novick, a consultant, trainer, curriculum designer, and ordained minister with over thirty years of experience in the fields of social justice, diversity, health, and the environment. She holds doctoral degrees in clinical psychology and ministry, along with master’s degrees in sociology and divinity. Presented en English and Spanish.
