We have numerous relationships to navigate in our lives, ranging from friends, family, classmates, romantic partners etc. Yet, we often neglect to reflect on them and truly inquire why they are important and how we can nurture them and ourselves. During this workshop series, we will delve into the most important aspects of building and maintaining relationships and consider creative ways to keep them healthy. In each workshop, we will explore a different aspect of relationships, ranging from the significance of social connection to communication styles and problem-solving techniques.
