SUMMARY:Everything Relationships!
DESCRIPTION:A monthly online drop-in to ask and discuss any questions that you have about building and keeping relationships. \nThese monthly sessions will be hosted alternately by Certified Sexual Health Educators Darren Frisk and Sherry Nassrin\, and are for individuals who want to build relationships\, both professionally & personally. \nDeveloping the relationships we want takes time & effort\, but we do get better at it. We can learn to be our most mature selves\, and to become more socially & emotionally aware.  We may need to expand our opportunities for meeting people\, to participate in activities that are new to us\, to nurture curiosity about others\, and to demonstrate flexibility around shared activities. This only makes sense if doing so aligns with our goals\, while preserving our mental & physical well-being. \nBeginning is the first step! Be kind to yourself\, and know that by reaching out in these sessions & elsewhere\, others will see your effort and will reach out back to you! \n \nNew!  You will earn a Frequent Friendly Face point for each event attended. Top point scorers will receive a gift card at the end of June 2024. \nPlease register for the event to get the Zoom link.
