Are you seeking to re/connect with your purpose as a practitioner?

Wondering what sustains you through the highs and challenges of your professional journey?

Craving a creative and supportive space to reflect on your identity in the field?

Join Brownyn and Miranda from HappyMess Studio for this 2-hour online workshop where we’ll use arts-based inquiry to reflect on our journeys as health professionals.

This supportive, reflective, and creative session is designed to support you to re/discover your strengths and re/connect with your purpose.

This session is facilitated by Miranda Cull and Bronwyn Napiorkowski, co-founders of Happymess Studio—a creative arts therapy and wellness hub on the mid-north coast of NSW. With over 20 years of combined experience in clinical, NGO, and community art spaces, Miranda and Bronwyn bring their expertise to this unique and meaningful workshop, designed to redefine the landscape of therapy and community wellness through creative expression.

No prior art experience is needed. Bring your curiosity, an open mind, and a few simple creative materials: paper, pastels, scissors, glue, old magazines, or anything you use in your arts-based practices. We look forward to welcoming you into this supportive and inspiring space!

This session is suitable for allied health workers, community workers and other health professionals and students, and offers an opportunity to pause, reflect, and explore new perspectives within a community of like-minded practitioners from various professional disciplines.
