SUMMARY:Five Key Lessons for Thriving in Every Area of Life
DESCRIPTION:Date: Tuesday\, October 14\nTime: 6:30 – 7:30 p.m. PT\nLocation: Mercado La Paloma\, 3655 S Grand Ave\, Los Angeles\, CA 90007 \nWe invite you to join CLAA for “Five Key Lessons for Thriving in Every Area of Life\,” a workshop led by Angel Orengo ’90 and Rocio Aquino\, authors of The Orchid: The Secret Code of Modern Goddesses. The workshop will guide attendees through the novel’s story and core lessons\, explore topics related to healing\, inner peace\, and self-love\, and allow time for reflection and curiosity. All are welcome to participate – regardless of whether you have already read The Orchid or are learning about it for the first time\, this workshop is for you! \nWe look forward to you joining us at Mercado La Paloma\, a vibrant community gathering space in the Figueroa Corridor of South Los Angeles. Advanced registration is required. Cost to attend is $10. \nSpecial thanks to Joseph De Los Santos\, MHA ’19 and Kim Cardenas ’17 for organizing. \nQuestions? Contact Jess Cherry\, Associate Director\, Diversity Alumni Programs. \n\nAbout the Authors \n  \n\nFrom life partners to literary collaborators. Our story\, entwined and colorful\, has been a journey of shared dreams\, challenges\, and wisdom gathered from the myriad of souls we’ve encountered. It has also been a journey of self-growth and transformation in which we have come to learn that all we have been searching for\, awareness\, gratitude\, forgiveness\, acceptance\, intention\, happiness and love\, has always been within us. It is from these personal and collective experiences that The Orchid: The Secret Code of Modern Goddesses was born. \nWe are Rocio and Angel\, partners in life and spirit\, wanderers who found home in each other’s hearts. Our journey together has been filled with a myriad of cultures\, beliefs\, and encounters with both the ordinary and extraordinary. In every corner of the world\, from the bustling streets of some of the world’s largest metropolis\, to ancient cities and the tranquil silence of hidden temples\, we have found knowledge\, understanding\, and the essence of what connects us all. \nThe Orchid is more than just a fictional story about wonderful and powerful women; it’s a reflection of our lives\, the lessons we’ve learned\, and the profound truths we’ve uncovered along the way. It’s a tribute to the resilient spirit of all the women in our lives\, those we have lived with\, and those we’ve met along the way\, whose stories of courage\, transformation\, and triumph have inspired us profoundly.
