Honouring the Past, Inhabiting the Present and Inviting the Future - Marianne Lizama - Thursday 19th March 2026

We often find ourselves haunted by what was, or full of anxiety about what will be. In the process, we lose the only moment we actually possess: the now. This talk explores how to bridge the gap between these three dynamics: learning to honour the legacy of who you were, mastering the quiet art of inhabiting who you are, and moving with purpose toward who you are becoming.
