From Reaction to Intention: Choosing Growth Over Concession
Learning & Development
A reflective workshop on designing your future, not inheriting it.
Facilitator: Christine Hall, From Reaction to Intention: Choosing Growth Over Concession is a two‑part, interactive workshop inspired by the work of Natalia Peart, PhD, author of Future Proofed (#1 Amazon bestseller in 5 categories). Unlike a traditional presentation, this workshop blends short teach‑outs with guided journaling to help you reflect, reset, and reclaim your direction. You’ll explore how to shift from reacting to the never-ending disruptions that seem to derail your dreams, to making intentional choices that move your life and career forward. Bring a journal or notepad, your favorite pen, and an open mind. If you're ready to chart your path rather than wait for one to be handed to you, this workshop is for you. Join us on Wednesday, March 11 (part one) and Wednesday, March 18 (part two) to begin your next chapter with clarity and purpose.

Description:
Weekly Dose of Mindfulness is an opportunity for all CSU community members to experience guided mindfulness practices with two trained facilitators.

College of Education
Multicultural education is rooted in civil rights, racial justice, and liberation movements of the 1950s and 1960s. It is a call for discourse and curriculum that are intersectional and grounded in anti-racism, anticolonialism, disability justice, queer and women of color feminisms, as well as knowledges that are often marginalized or oppressed in dominant educational spaces. Critical multicultural education is also rooted in pedagogies that are culturally affirming and humanizing, while cultivating solidarity, critical questioning, and healing.
,
Our 32nd Annual Multicultural Educational Conference theme, “Grounded in our Commitments: Building Community & Coalitions” is an invitation to deepen our commitments to these and other aspects of critical multicultural education. Drawing from the legacies of community organizing that have been foundational to expanding equity and inclusion, critical studies of education, and humanizing pedagogies, our theme is driven by a desire to learn from both historical and…

A reflective workshop on designing your future, not inheriting it.
Facilitator: Christine Hall, From Reaction to Intention: Choosing Growth Over Concession is a two‑part, interactive workshop inspired by the work of Natalia Peart, PhD, author of Future Proofed (#1 Amazon bestseller in 5 categories).

You’ll explore how to shift from reacting to the never-ending disruptions that seem to derail your dreams, to making intentional choices that move your life and career forward. Bring a journal or notepad, your favorite pen, and an open mind. If you're ready to chart your path rather than wait for one to be handed to you, this workshop is for you. Join us on Wednesday, March 11 (part one) and Wednesday, March 18 (part two) to begin your next chapter with clarity and purpose.
