So here's the interesting connection.

Good friend of mine from high school days moved up here to Tahoe to take a job at the community college about a year ago. We haven't seen each other much but here and there we connect and he was nice enough to give me a ride to the grocery store so I could get groceries to last me through whenever..
We started talking about the college life and I mentioned something about wishing I could be an academic circles and he was telling me to look on a college job board and I mentioned something about my class that I used to give and the lady who ran it megan. And he's like oh my God Megan is my bestie, I love her she's awesome...
so the light bulb went off and I realized it was a synchronicity.

So I went on the college connect website and downloaded the application because it's been seven or more years since I did my last class. I emailed Megan and told her that I'd like to reboot the class and that I had downloaded the application.
She replied within less than 24 hours (even though she was not in the office Friday) she replied to me *that evening* and said... "tell me what days and give me a class description and I'll get you in the schedule!"

So I'm going to shoot for Tuesday evenings and also Saturday midday afternoon giving our flexible work schedule people here in tourism country a chance to participate!

Also, what's interesting is that this is my material, my baby, I developed this class and put it together. And I was not as confident in myself or my abilities as I am now, especially after taking those anthropology classes!
Everything happens for a reason right?

Ironically also, I went to go change some things on my website and polish it and revamp that page about the classes, and my website is suspended for non-payment LOL
So I guess it is time to start over... Again! LOL

Having people in the class and the backing of the college as legitimacy, will also get me clients for my sound therapy so I'm excited

FirstLight (my namesake as my name is Dawn):

Did you by any chance try the 369 method? Even a little? I'm curious to see if it worked for you.

I'm so glad things seem to be turning around for you.

[FirstLight]

6. Yes!

I probably ended up saying it more than three six and nine LOL I've been repeating my affirmation every time I think about it and I actually even put it into song form so it's running around my head like an earworm 🤣💗

7. Yay! Really good news for revamping a college class!

With the potential for your sound thearpy sessions.

[FirstLight]

8. ...I cannot believe the first class was in 2015!

TEN years? wtaf?

I have a LOT better approach now and more wisdom

[electric_blue68]

10. Then hopefully your class will be more popular!

9. How does THIS sound for a description...?

Your Inner Compass –
The cardinal directions were some of the first symbols drawn by our ancestors and are still taught to every child in school around the World.
Learn how the directions have been used through the ages, how they apply to mystical experience, and how you can use this understanding to navigate your Life and Purpose in an empowering way. Through anthropology, sacred indigenous teachings, “active” meditation, and art therapy, you will learn how to find your Center no matter where you are in Life!

12. Sounds good. Maybe you want to add "Center" into the course title since you emphasize it .....

Your Inner Compass and It's Center

[FirstLight]

13. I know... I was trying to keep it short and concise...

People don't like to read much these days... LOL

The original title back in 2015 was "Nature's Compass- Finding Yourself in the Sacred Center"

14. Well, some don't. I do get it

Nature's Compass and Your Sacred Center
