IWILL Focus Workshop (Virtual Event)

☀️ JUNE TOPIC: The Weight of Expectations: Unlearning ‘Shoulds’ and Managing Inflammatory Stress ☀️

There's the pressure that comes from the outside — and then there's the kind you carry from within. The "shoulds" and "should nots" we've absorbed over a lifetime run quietly in the background, and that chronic hum doesn't just wear on you mentally. It compounds external stress, keeping your nervous system in a state it was never meant to sustain.

In this session, we'll explore how internalized expectations act as inflammatory stressors — and more importantly, how to challenge, reframe, and replace them with intentional, values-aligned choices that actually belong to you.
