Winter has a way of asking a lot from us, and Jeremy Gauthier has a gentle, practical answer!

In his Back to You’ll workshop series, presented with the Kamloops & District Chamber of Commerce this November, Jeremy shares simple, everyday self-care habits that can make the season feel lighter. His reminder is a good one: we cannot control everything around us, but when we look after what is on the inside, our capacity to grow and to serve others grows too.

Join us!!
