I am out with lanterns looking for myself.

THE SEVEN LANTERNS:
Illuminating Your Path Into Your New Story
Today, we stand on a threshold—a time when the very ground beneath us is being shaken up and the world around us appears to be unraveling. A dominant narrative that we have been living in may now be coming to an end. We are being broken open. It is at these potent times of transition that we are called to birth a new story, to be brave.
In this four-week online series, visionary guide and gifted storyteller Amber Chand invites you on a transformational journey into your new story as dreamers of a new dream, map makers and mythmakers and alchemists ready to transform the grit of your past into the gold of a new vision.
Through wisdom teachings, reflective journaling, creative practices, and dynamic dialogue, you will:
Learn about the power of story and how to recognize key stories that reside in you during times of radical transformation.
Discover the potency of fearless inquiry as you ask four essential questions that will guide you on the journey.
Embrace the wisdom of the Seven Lanterns as a navigational map or blueprint to illuminate your path.
Unleash the power of creative imagination as you learn how to dialogue with your future self.
Design a clear, intentional path into your vibrant new story, one that will deeply nourish your mind, body, and spirit.
This visionary program has been designed for those who are at a crossroads in our lives, perhaps adrift in a sea of confusion as to how to step into our next chapter, curious as to how to navigate this time of uncertainty and beckoned by the soul call of, “Who am I, who am I becoming, and how will I get there?”

She connected with each participant in the most generous way; listening, encouraging, holding space for new stories to emerge. I loved seeing the response, the moments of illumination in the eyes and hearts of those who had the benefit of her teaching.
