Location
The Abbey
About
Facilitator: Lee Palumbo
Storytelling is part of our ancient traditions and our everyday. Stories help is to understand ourselves and each other, and the human experience. Stories can bring healing and transformation when aired in a safe and supportive environment. Whether your story is light or dark, painful or playful, hilarious or profoundly moving, we want to hear it. This may be your first time, but no experience is needed, after all, it is your story, true and from the heart. The art of listening in a supportive environment is vital to storytelling and we will be here to do just that, to hold space for one another. Join us for this weekend of connection, storytelling, reflection and good food, in the beautiful natural environment at The Abbey. There will be an open invitation for you to tell your story in ten minutes based on a theme, the three main themes, one per session.

Lee is a mother and a grandmother and live, study and work in the township of Sunbury on the land of the Wurundjeri people.
