Esperienza guidata, domande potenti, confronto autentico. Uscirai con: • Una Visione scritta • Una direzione più chiara • Un impegno concreto • Un nuovo modo di osservarti Il workshop sarà tenuto da **Loretta Stefano**, Mentore & Career Coach certificata ACC ICF, professionista con esperienza riconosciuta nell’ambito della formazione e del coaching e con quasi vent’anni nel settore finanziario e nella guida di team in contesti complessi. Un approccio che unisce esperienza manageriale, profondità e concretezza. *** ### Evento Pilota Questo è il primo workshop CAMBIA-MENTI in formato pilot. Per questo motivo il contributo di partecipazione è: **57 € invece di 97 €** Un investimento consapevole per dedicarti tre ore di profondità e chiarezza. *** Se senti che non si tratta di “lasciare”, ma di andare verso, questo è il tuo momento.

✨ Nate con la camicia… personalizzata ✨ Hai una camicia semplice di cotone? oppure in alternativa una t-shirt? Perfetto. Sta per diventare tutt’altro che semplice. In questo workshop giochiamo con strass scintillanti, bottoni coloratissimi, toppe termoadesive e dettagli sorprendenti per trasformare una camicia bianca, nera o di jeans in un capo super personale, creativo e pieno di carattere. Non serve saper cucire come una stilista né avere competenze tecniche: basta voglia di divertirsi, sperimentare e lasciare spazio alla fantasia. Mischiamo, proviamo, attacchiamo, cambiamo idea, aggiungiamo un tocco in più. Qui non esiste “troppo”, esiste solo “wow”. Sarà un momento leggero, creativo e pieno di energia, dove ogni camicia racconta una storia diversa — la tua. Perché nascere con la camicia è fortuna. Personalizzarla è pura magia. 💫 Tu porta solo la tua camicia la voglia di rilassarti e un bel sorriso al resto ci penso io ☕🙂 Gruppo whatsapp : https://chat.whatsapp.com/JPeImG8EK1P82157K4izWP?mode=wwt Massimo 6 posti! puoi inviare la quota di prenotazione con PayPal o Satispay o bonifico per prenotare il tuo posto. 🫰🏻Contributo di partecipazione 15€ compreso di tutti i materiali, la mia guida, acqua al tavolo e caffè di benvenuto ☕ se gradito. 🙏🏻Ti prego di confermare la tua presenza entro venerdì 13 marzo per poter confermare il tavolo.
