Meet the Facilitators
Zoe, Emmett & Bri
Along with Emmett & Bri, Zoe will be guiding and facilitating the 2 workshops.
“I spent so much of teenage years not feeling understood by my parents.
I didn’t make the effort to understand them either. This workshop will be great for any parent who wants to get to know their kid. Get to know what they’re thinking about and what they’re going through.”
