**ABOUT OUR PRESENTATION:**

Join us for a panel of experts and women who have personal experience with mental health. Mental Health ***IS*** health. It is such a critical topic, and can be life or death, yet it is still such treated as a taboo topic in many spaces.

She Goes High is changing that. Our founder, Chrysta Bairre, has been vocal, vulnerable, and raw as she shares her personal experience with mental health, and we are bringing you a panel of experts and everyday women who have personal experience with mental health to openly discuss and answer questions you may have about this topic.

**Sarah Joseph (she/her), Hope Roots**

I have experience in helping clients develop a mind-body connection - learning how stress, trauma, and emotions are felt and held in the body. My approach allows the client freedom to explore how their nervous system has adapted to handle trauma and stress throughout their lifetime. This awareness leads to healing and helps facilitate trauma reprocessing. I use EMDR therapy to help clients process the residual imprints of trauma that often cause anxiety, depression, anger issues, and chronic health problems.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Masters in Counseling. I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Colorado. I am trained in EMDR therapy and trauma-sensitive yoga, and I am pursuing training in Neurofeedback Therapy and Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy. My main clinical interests are in trauma therapy, group therapy, relational-cultural theory, attachment-focused therapy, parts work, yoga & mindfulness interventions, Neurofeedback, neuro-counseling, psychodrama, grief, anger, and stress-related illness.

At a retreat in India in 2005, a lecture on ahimsa (non-violence) sparked an interest in yoga philosophy and mental health. I later became trained in trauma-sensitive yoga, which ignited my lifelong interest in psychology and counseling into a desire to become a professional trauma therapist. I have lived in rural ranching communities in Wyoming, downtown San Francisco, and North India. This diverse experience means that I am comfortable relating with people from many different cultures and backgrounds. I believe that spirituality can help clients make meaning of their pain and find resources for life-long healing and growth. I can provide therapy in English and/or in Hindi.

I am based in Northern Colorado but I spent over 10 years of my adult life living and working in India. I am the founder and board chair of Hope Roots. Since relocating to Colorado in 2019, I also work as the project coordinator for the Northern Colorado Human Trafficking Symposium.

Let's gather together, create connections, and see what's being experienced around a certain topic. You're probably not the only one feeling the way you feel... and you don't have to go through it alone.

\- Share ideas and experiences\.
\- Discover different ways of thinking or acting\.
\- Leave feeling connected and maybe even with something to explore: a thought\, something to do\, something to stop doing\, someone to connect with further\.

It won't be super formal. There are no presentations or workshops.
There will be light snacks.

RSVP for address

**ABOUT OUR HOST:**

Jessica Lucey became a yoga teacher in 2017 to give people a little oasis of time and connection where you can relax, explore movement, choose what you do with your body, and have permission to make "mistakes". She is constantly learning and finding ways to make yoga accessible, applicable to life off the mat, and fun.

Her training focuses on teaching older adults, adapting practice for folks with limited flexibility, providing yoga wellness education, preventing burnout, and supporting people through menstrual cycles and menopause. You can expect classes that are vinyasa based with functional movement linked with breath. You’re invited to get curious about what’s actually going on inside your body and play. When Jessica’s not teaching, you can find her exploring the outdoors, traveling around the world, or relaxing with a cup of tea and her journal.

**ABOUT OUR LOCATION:**

Jessica's house is in a neighborhood in Fort Collins. There is free street parking with no time limit.

The space is not ADA accessible. This is a bi-level home where you walk onto a landing and have to go down the stairs. Bathrooms are located both upstairs and downstairs for your use.

The home yoga studio has different options for seating

* sitting on the floor with the support of blocks, bolsters, or blankets
* regular height chairs
* high top chairs
* if you'd like, you can bring your favorite portable chair

Food/snack options will include options for folx who are vegetarian, gluten free, and dairy free. You'll welcome to bring a snack to share.

**EVENT FLOW:**

* Settle in (5 min)
* Welcome, state group expectations/agreements, introduce the topic (10 min)
* Introductions and group conversation (65 min). Our conversation is centered around a topic voted on prior to this event. We'll share what we're experiencing, allow for nuance, listen, and discuss things to explore or experiment with around our topic.
* Make specific connections (10 min). This is a time to get someone's contact info if you don't have it yet, set up one-on-one conversations, or catch up with a friend you haven't seen in a while.

Lead Lunch and Learn

Join us for a lunchtime educational workshop. Meet empowered professional women like you and grow personally and professionally at this dynamic educational event!

Ditch the elevator pitch- our events support connection and collaboration! At She Goes High, we don't blindly pass out business cards or ask, "so, what do you do?"

You’re invited to have fun, participate, and support women leaders at this interactive event!

**When:** The first Wednesday of the month, 11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.

**Where:** Fort Collins Area Chamber of Commerce, 225 S Meldrum St · Fort Collins, CO

**Cost:** Free!

**ABOUT OUR PRESENTATION:**

Have you or someone you know had to plan a funeral not knowing what the departed would’ve wanted? Do you have hard yeses or no’s around how (and by whom) you would like your own body cared for after you die? Do you know someone whose yeses and nos weren’t honored in death? Are you estranged from your family of origin and/or do you have concerns about who would be appointed as your default deathcare decision maker based on the state’s next-of-kin succession laws if you don’t have the proper paperwork in place?

Join us for this lunch and learn to:

-Explore Declarations of Disposition and why they matter in order to 1) maintain your bodily autonomy in death, 2) choose who gets a say, and 3) take both the guesswork and the potential for conflict out of decision making for the people you leave behind.

-Gain insight into some of the lesser known options available in Colorado like home funerals, water cremation, and composting.

**ABOUT OUR PRESENTER:**

Tawnya (she/her) is a death and grief worker who strives to lighten the load and brighten the road for those she serves. She works hard to make sure that individuals and communities know what’s available to them in the world of death and dying by advocating for choice. She is an emeritus board member of the National Home Funeral Alliance and co-authored the organization's Home Funerals Guidebook that teaches people how to be with and care for their departed themselves in the privacy of their own home or space. She also co-authored an end-of-life planning guide for the non-monogamy community.

As the founder of Dear Departures Tawnya has offerings as a death doula, life-cycle celebrant, and grief companion. At any given moment you might find her crafting a custom ceremony for a celebration-of-life, working on a legacy project with a dying person, leading a grief group for people who had a complicated relationship with the dead, or giving a community presentation like this one!

She balances the heaviness of her deathwork with, gardening, hiking, hot springs, laughter, and live music!

A Mastermind is a safe space to talk about what you are working on, get ideas, feedback, support, inspiration, accountability and SO much more.

Everyone gets to share every week, and you receive the support you need to make progress!
