Facilitating Life Reflection

 

Hi, I'm Kathy Lohr. I teach adults why, what, how, when, and where we curious humans find and make meaning of our world. Adults who have the skills of a self-directed learner are able to locate life-relevant content structured to their learning preferences and needs. For those in the second half of life, this is essential because we're constantly challenged to keep up while responding to the big life questions that come with longevity, legacy, and transcendence. Creative and critical reflection supports one's identity as a learner and here you will find the tools and resources to enhance your skill as a reflective, self-directed, lifelong learner.
