"The wellbeing workshop was a turning point for me; it forced me to take a step back and really look at my sources of stress and how I was dealing with them. I built on what I learned in this workshop, and I am in a much better place. I am taking care of myself and my mental health in a way that makes me happy and strong, and it all started with this workshop."
