Online workshop: Beyond your comfort zone – Navigating uncertainty
Change is uncomfortable and that’s exactly where growth begins. This session is for anyone who is curious about pushing beyond the familiar, whether that means travelling somewhere new, taking on an unexpected internship, or saying yes to an opportunity that feels slightly out of reach. Together, we’ll explore how to find confidence in unfamiliar situations, how to recognise the difference between healthy challenge and exhaustion, and how to trust yourself when the path ahead isn’t fully mapped out. Through reflection and practical tools, this session encourages you to step into discomfort with intention, stretch your limits safely, and discover what you’re capable of when you allow yourself to try.
This workshop is delivered by Gemma Brown.
