Retreat for Women who are blind/visually impaired or have a degenerative eye condition

** I am SO excited about this event!!  Please share if you know a woman that would like to join us -- Thank you!!  

Daring to Own Your Story
A retreat for women
(who are blind, visually impaired, or have been diagnosed with a degenerative eye condition)

Why attend a retreat specifically for visually impaired women? At times when facing vision loss, many women may feel isolated because they often don't know anyone who shares their unique challenges. This retreat is an opportunity to connect and share stories with other women experiencing vision loss.  You will also leave with empowering tools and new insight through the Brene Brown, thedaringway.com,  experiential activities. This retreat is an experience to truly own and celebrate who you are and your story. 

What?  Becky Andrews, LCMHC and Nicole Wall, LCMHC will lead you on an amazing journey of connection, learning, growth, adventure and laughter. 

Becky Andrews, Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and owner and clinical Director of Resilient Soltuions, Inc (blind from Retinitis Pigmentosa).
