Transcending the Narrative

Transcending the Narrative takes trans and gender diverse people from around rural and regional Victoria on a journey of writing, re-writing, and transcending their story.

Exploring creative writing, and using principles of Narrative Therapy, Transcending the Narrative will take participants on a journey from the story we trans people have - or are told to have - about our lives, to an affirming, transcendent narrative of our lives.

These online workshops will be facilitated by Lorene Slade (they/she), a genderqueer, lesbian, neurodivergent, Accredited Mental Health Social Worker with almost 15 years experience working in, and with queer communities.

These immersive, interactive online workshops will be held over three nights:
Monday November 13th: 5.30 - 7.30pm
Monday November 20th: 5.30 - 7.30pm
Monday November 27th: 5.30 - 7.30pm

The workshops are provided free by Omni Insight, and are generously funded by Midsumma Festival, Victoria's Pride, and the Victorian Government. Omni Insight Partnered with Brittany Barnard, Tone Train Consulting, Paige Heibach Consulting, and LINE Wangaratta to develop this workshop.

Participants will also be invited (not mandatory) to join in the Transcending the Narrative Podcast
