Parent Presentation and January Newsletter

Hello!
I hope everyone is back safe and sound from their travels by now and have settled into the routine again.
Two quick notes:

1. Please Join us on January 25th from 8:10-9:30 in the ES/PS conference room for a parent workshop led by Ms. Belen Settembri. She will be discussing Third Culture Kids and how to support them in their emotional growth as they grow up far from extended family and community support.

“Because true belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world, our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self-acceptance.” 

“Connection is why we're here; it is what gives purpose and meaning to our lives".

― Brené Brown, Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead

 In the expat life we live, belonging and connection get new dimensions. In this workshop, we will start to explore what we can do as parents to support our children to embrace the advantages of being Third Culture Kids and still be able to connect to the power of their own emotions and vulnerability.

Belen Settembri has two kids at DAA and works as Executive Leadership Coach. She believes in Leaders that are real and can express their vulnerability with confidence and without shame.

2. Please find under the Newsletter tab the latest issue of my monthly counseling newsletter. This month it is focused on appreciating diversity in honor of our UN Day celebrations coming up in early February.

Have a lovely day!
