Rituals & Traditions
Saturday, March 14 | 11:00 AM EST
Join us as we explore how community is cocreated - not just through what we do, but through how we show up for one another. This is a collaborative gathering that honors the diverse ways we connect, reflect, and grow together.
GUEST SPEAKERS:
Dr Arnaldo Lichtenstein, Governor, Brazil Chapter
Dr. Geetha Govindarajan, Illinois Northern Chapter
Dr. Shelly Xie, Texas Chapter
In this inter-chapter experience, we will explore how rituals - such as those found in food, storytelling, and celebrations - provide insight into the values and experiences that shape our lives. We will create space for open, respectful conversations where every voice is valued. We will build trust, spark a connection, and invite thoughtful and meaningful exchange.
Guided by a five-part framework centered around TRUST, our journey will move through the following themes:
Traditions
Rituals
Understanding
Shared Experiences
Togetherness
Each step invites us to reflect on where we've come from and to imagine what we can build together.
