Marin Theatre presents the West Coast Premiere of “Sally & Tom.” Pulitzer Prize winner Suzan-Lori Parks, known for her acclaimed works about American history “Topdog/Underdog” and “Father Comes Home From the Wars,” sets the stage with the metatheatrical story of a fictional up-and-coming theatre company rehearsing a play about Sally Hemings and Thomas Jefferson.

If you’ve spent years trying to move on from the pain of your past but still find yourself stuck in old patterns of shame, fear, or self-doubt - you’re not alone.
For nearly two decades, I’ve been helping women heal from the impact of childhood sexual abuse and finally feel free, confident, and at peace in their own skin.
This January, I’m inviting a new group of women to join me for the Beyond Surviving Group Program - a 5-month, live coaching experience designed to help you let go of the past and step into the life you deserve.
You’ll learn how to:
• Regulate your emotions
• Put an end to shame
• Build confidence
• Reconnect with your authentic self
• … and more…
…all within a supportive community of women who truly get it.
And because I want this work to be as accessible as possible, I’m offering this round on a pay-what-you-can basis.…
