Classes & Links

If you're thinking about making the Wholehearted Journey - of walking away from "What will people think?" and toward "I am enough" - I want to share a few wonderful classes with you. Below are courses (mostly e-courses) that focus on different aspects of wholeheartedness, like dreaming, playing, practicing authenticity, cultivating creativity, and making meaningful work. I've either taken these classes or worked with the facilitators. I think you'll enjoy what they have to offer. See you in class!

bindu wiles: lens on the human condition

From Bindu:

"What amazes me time and time again is the endless range of emotion that can be held in a face, and how much I see my own feelings on someone else’s face, and how my heart extends to that person.

The practice of iPhone photography has increased my sensitivity and my ability to see deeper into the world all around me and be deeply moved by it, and therefore, able to transcend my own pain and suffering.

In this 5-week online course, I will be teaching a black and white portrait class in the tradition of the street photography period that was roughly between 1890 and 1975.

The iPhone and the incredible photo processing apps that are available, are bringing a resurgence to the street photography of yesteryear and which is now referred to as mobile photography."

And . . . I'll see you in class!

the unravelling e-courses

The Unravelling e-courses are designed to help you heal the way you see your self and your world, using photography and journalling to access hidden thoughts & dreams and encourage personal realisations, all in the safe space of a like-minded community.

As Susannah guides you through this process she'll share the insights and inspiration she gleaned from her five-year voyage through grief and healing; when Unravellers come together online a tribe is formed, and the encouragement and fellowship found in these dynamic groups supports each person in their own journey…

So if you’re yearning to reconnect with the real you, this is the place to start!
