Peer School – Trust & Connection

Peer School – Online Workshop

In this workshop we will be focusing on trust in oneself and the trust we place in others, as it is this form of trust that brings about our ability to make connections with others. Trust means choosing to connect. 

Ultimately, in order to trust and be trusted, we need to place our trust in others, but that does not mean trusting blindly. Trust should be discerning, cognizant of proper boundaries for oneself and the recipient, and be grounded in self-awareness.

To gain a better understanding of the topic of trust and connection, you’ll learn about the psychological and physiological aspects. We will discuss vulnerability, boundaries, building connections and accountability. You will leave this course feeling empowered after exploring the topic of trust and how to grow connections with others. 

 

Trust & Connection will be held as a Zoom meeting with interactive discussions, breakout rooms, and skill-building. 

This online workshop is part of our Peer School , which supports you in supporting others. So this workshop is open to anyone wanting to develop connection & trust skills, or is supporting another person.

Trust & Connection has been created in collaboration with CMHA Kelowna’s Peer Supporters and Education Team with contributions from people with lived and learned expertise.

 

This session will be hosted online – access to the internet or phone is needed.
