The Long Way Back to Joy

Thursday, August 6

6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Location: Shorewood Village Center

August is recognized as "Happiness Happens Month", and we are celebrating by discussing what happens when life collapses and we don’t abandon ourselves.

Join us as life coach Ryan Webster shares his decades-long journey — from serving with the Peace Corps in Africa, to living in Buddhist meditation centers in Asia, through an extreme narrowing of life caused by long-term chronic pain, followed by his unexpected recovery. Through personal stories and honest reflection, Ryan invites a grounded, human conversation about how all our life experiences become opportunities for personal transformation, and discovering peace that doesn’t depend on our life circumstances.

This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Shorewood Public Library.
