Our Candlelight Chat is TOMORROW, Sunday, from 1-2 pm EST, on Zoom.
Here are the log-in instructions! We’re hosting Dr. Maya Shankar, author of the instant bestseller, THE OTHER SIDE OF CHANGE.
Dear all,
I’m really looking forward to seeing you tomorrow, for our next Candlelight Chat!
This one’s for you if you’re facing the end of a relationship, an unexpected diagnosis, the loss of a job, or some other twist of fate.
We’re very honored to host special guest Dr. Maya Shankar, a cognitive scientist; host of the critically acclaimed podcast, A Slight Change of Plans; and author of the instant new bestselling book — The Other Side of Change: Who We Become When Life Makes Other Plans, an excerpt of which we published in The Quiet Life last month.
Here are just a few of the topics we’ll discuss with Dr. Shankar:
The moment life splits into “before” and “after” — and how to rebuild meaning on the other side.
What research shows about the people who grow stronger after disruption — and what they do differently.
How to support someone you love who is going through radical change (without saying the wrong thing).
How to recognize when you’re clinging to a past version of yourself — and how to let go with dignity.
And more.
As usual, we’ll also invite you to ask your questions of Dr. Shankar. You’ll be able to talk to her either via the written chat, or by “raising your hand” and coming online to chat with her.
Also as usual, please have a candle handy, but don’t light it yet. We’ll do that together.
And, please bring a journal, iPad, sketchbook, or whatever works best for you.
And finally, don’t worry if you can’t make it live. We’ll send out a video recording to paid and scholarship subscribers next week.
