Defined, Undefined, & Unwritten™
Workshop I: Who Have I Learned to Be?
Women 30+ | $175 | Limited to 10 Participants
Lunch, refreshments, workshop materials, and four hours of guided self-exploration are included.
Reserve Your SeatYou Know Your Titles.
You know your responsibilities.
You know who calls when something needs to be fixed.
You know how to be the mother, daughter, wife, partner, caregiver, professional, friend, leader, problem solver, peacekeeper, strong one, dependable one - or whatever role life has required you to carry.
But if we took away all of those roles for a moment -
Not what do you do.
Not who needs you.
Not who are you responsible for.
Not what have you accomplished.
Who are you?
For some women, that question is surprisingly difficult to answer.
Defined. Undefined. Unwritten.
DEFINED.
By roles, relationships, experiences, expectations, responsibilities, and everything you have learned about who you are supposed to be.
UNDEFINED.
An opportunity to question which definitions actually belong to you - and which ones you have simply carried because they were expected.
UNWRITTEN.
Because every part of who you are does not have to be decided already. There may still be parts of yourself you have not had the opportunity to discover.
Undefined doesn't mean lost.
It can mean not yet decided.
Maybe You Aren't Trying to Find Yourself Again.
Women are often encouraged to “get back to yourself,” “find yourself again,” or “become the woman you used to be.”
But what if there isn't a former version of yourself you're trying to recover?
Maybe responsibility came early.
Maybe you learned to take care of other people before you learned to pay attention to yourself.
Maybe being responsible, successful, helpful, strong, agreeable, dependable, or needed became part of how you learned to understand your value.
Maybe you've spent so much of your life becoming what was necessary that you've never had much opportunity to ask:
You may not need to find your way back to yourself.
There may be parts of yourself you haven't had the opportunity to discover yet.
Defined, Undefined, & Unwritten™
Defined, Undefined, & Unwritten™ is a clinically informed exploration series designed to help women examine the roles, experiences, expectations, and beliefs that have shaped how they understand who they are.
The series asks one central question:
This isn't about abandoning the roles that matter to you.
You can love being a mother and still wonder who you are outside of motherhood.
You can value your career and recognize that your profession isn't the entirety of your identity.
You can love your family and still examine how family expectations have shaped you.
You can be dependable without wanting to be responsible for everyone.
The goal isn't to strip away your roles.
It's to explore whether those roles have become the entire definition of you.
Who Have I Learned to Be?
Before we can explore who we want to be, it helps to understand how we learned to be who we are.
During this four-hour interactive workshop, we'll begin examining how roles, relationships, expectations, culture, responsibility, and life experiences influence identity.
This first workshop creates the foundation for the exploration that follows.
This Isn't Four Hours of Sitting and Listening.
Through structured exercises and interactive experiences, we'll look at identity from several different perspectives.
Life Timeline
Begin looking at the experiences and transitions that have influenced how you understand yourself.
Role Timeline
Examine the roles you've carried throughout different stages of your life - and when those roles began becoming part of your identity.
Identity Wheel
Look beyond titles and responsibilities to explore the different dimensions that contribute to your sense of self.
Johari Window
Explore what you recognize about yourself, what others may see, what you choose to keep private, and what may still be waiting to be discovered.
We'll also use interactive technology, including opportunities for anonymous responses, to explore shared experiences within the room without requiring anyone to publicly disclose personal information.
You Don't Have to Tell Strangers Your Business.
Let's make that clear.
This is not a workshop where you'll be expected to sit in a circle and tell your trauma story.
You decide what you share.
The workshop invites honest self-reflection, but participation does not require publicly disclosing painful experiences or explaining your personal history to the room.
Some activities will allow for anonymous participation so you can engage, reflect, recognize patterns, and learn from the collective experience without feeling pressured to reveal more than you choose.
You can participate without performing vulnerability.
This Workshop May Be for You If…
Or maybe nothing is particularly “wrong.”
You're simply ready to become more curious about you.
What This Workshop Is—and What It Isn't
What It Is
Defined, Undefined, & Unwritten™ is a structured, clinically informed exploration experience.
It draws from concepts related to psychology, human development, identity development, family systems, cognitive and narrative approaches, psychoeducation, and other clinically informed frameworks.
You do not have to be a current client of Progressing through Therapy or Seeking Self to participate.
Current therapy clients are welcome.
What It Isn't
This workshop is not psychotherapy.
Participation does not establish a therapist - client relationship with either facilitator.
The workshop does not provide mental health diagnosis or treatment and is not a substitute for mental health care.
If you are experiencing an acute psychiatric crisis, active suicidal thoughts, or significant psychiatric instability, this workshop is not an appropriate substitute for professional assessment or treatment.

418 S. Eugene Court
Greensboro, NC
Limited to no more than 10 participants
Your registration includes:
Four hours of guided exploration facilitated by licensed mental health professionals, structured and interactive activities, workshop materials, lunch and refreshments, and opportunities for both individual and anonymous participation.
You'll also receive a brief follow-up after the workshop to continue reflecting on what you discovered.
Attendance is intentionally limited. A smaller setting gives us room for interaction, reflection, questions, and meaningful participation without getting lost in a large conference-style environment.
Two Clinicians. One Shared Exploration.
Lawanna D. Brown, MS, LCMHCS
Lawanna will share facilitation throughout the workshop, bringing clinical knowledge, guided reflection, structured exercises, and intentional exploration into the room.
Kierra M. Mundine, MS, LCMHC
Kierra will share facilitation throughout the workshop, helping participants explore identity, roles, experiences, and the ways we learn to understand ourselves.
We'll Get to Know You First.
After registering, you'll receive a brief Getting to Know You questionnaire.
This isn't an application.
You don't need to write an essay, share your entire history, or prove that you “belong” in the room.
The questionnaire simply helps us understand who will be joining us and allows us to prepare an experience that is thoughtful and relevant to the women attending.
Who Have You Learned to Be?
Maybe you already know.
Maybe you're beginning to question it.
Maybe this is the first time you've considered the difference between who you are and who you've learned to be.
You don't need to have the answer before you walk through the door.
That's what we're coming together to explore.
