Turning the Page - a new workshop

​Turning the Page
 
Since Covid times I have come across many people who in that peaceful pause when planes grounded and we could hear birdsong, began to re-evaluate their life and wondered could I live and work differently? For a time, it looked as if our cities would empty and the countryside would fill up with fleeing urbanites crafting their way to a better integrated, gentler, fulfilling life.
Then I began to meet people who having  had their light-bulb moment couldn’t quite launch themselves into a different tomorrow, either because they didn’t know how to make this new way of living work or lacked self-belief. Some graduated from creative courses without the tools to convert their talent into a meaningful career and not knowing who to turn to. Others in caring and medical professions wondered if they could work independently and develop their own practice.
Turning the Page is for anyone who finds themselves stalled at a crossroad and needing the support that enables them to move forward with confidence.

Guest facilitators
 
Marion Catlin
Principal consultant Marion Catlin started The Shift Norwich to provide cultural development, design and digital services for the arts, heritage and cultural sectors.
The idea is simple - to bring together the skills, talents and experience of the very many creative people that live in and around Norwich and promote them to the rest of the world, acting as a hub for creative and cultural activity and information for the public and audiences. As a designer, she is also a creative problem-solver, brokering and matching people and ideas to resources and projects. Marion has become a master of networks and connecting and she herself has readjusted from full-time employment to a diverse freelance career over the last 12 years, with many insights to pass on. 
 
Sally Storr

As a Human Resources Officer at The World Health Organisation living in Switzerland for over 20 years her knowledge of multi-cultural communities informs her world view.  Sally enjoys the challenge of change but equally understands its potential stress. More recently working as a counsellor in private practice, and as a tutor and a coach at the Open University Sally uses a combination of coaching and teaching skills and she aims to support others in living the life they really want.
