Workshops

Storytelling is a community event. Learning the stories of those around us—those we work with, those we go to school with, and even those whom we have just met—helps teach empathy. HerStry offers community centered workshops, both online and in person, to help you bring storytelling more intimately into your life.

Journaling as Self care workshop

Date: Saturday, April 27
Time: 11:00 AM Central Time
Where: Your couch, your bed, your favorite cozy spot

How do we make time for ourselves in a world where
it feels like there is never time for anything? How do we stop, sit down, and reflect on our days?

Have you been tempted to start a journaling habit but just felt at a loss? Like there were too many other things going on? We get that journaling can feel overwhelming. There are so many options out there (bullet journaling, food journaling, line-a-day journaling), what does it all mean? And besides that, who has time for it?

Let us help you! Journaling is a form of self-care. And like all self-care, we here at HerStry don’t think it should be overwhelming. Join us for a morning of journaling, self-care tips, and some good ‘ol fashion hangout time.

Pjs and coffee encouraged!

Workshop Includes:

  • Practical tips to help you start a sustainable, everyday, journaling practice.

  • Your own HerStry journal, sent to you
    before the workshop starts.

  • A 1 hour online, interactive workshop with
    other women dedicated to celebrating writing and self care.

  • After the workshop you will receive journal prompts sent to your inbox everyday for 30 days.

Sign up by April 13th to ensure you receive a HerStry journal before the workshop date.

  • Getting to the bottom of WHY your story is important

  • Time for each participant to share part of her story,
    if she wishes.

School Age Workshops

Our school aged Workshops are geared towards girls in grades 6 - 12 and focus on the power of storytelling and self-esteem.

It’s no secret that better self awareness leads to better self-esteem. It's also no secret that from a young age many girls learn to keep quiet, becoming a minor character in their own story. Let’s change that!

HerStry school aged workshops teach girls to take a hold of their stories and write them for themselves.
