The Ignition Program offers post-secondary students a 10-week program that gives access to training, mentorship, resources, ecosystem connections; and honorariums to support personal and business development. Students will be awarded $10 for each session they engage with!
What’s in this session:
In a world built on speed, extraction, and burnout, The Nurture Method™ invites us to return to the technologies of empathy, presence, and breath. This immersive session guides participants through scientifically grounded breathwork, therapeutic sound frequencies, and Indigenous ceremonial technologies designed to restore coherence between the body, mind, and spirit. Participants will experience how emotional intelligence—when cultivated intentionally—becomes the foundation of both personal and organizational well-being. Through resonance and guided reflection, Angela demonstrates that empathy is not soft—it is structural. It is the unseen architecture that supports trust, innovation, and economic resilience in our communities. Attendees will leave with: - Tools to regulate the nervous system and increase emotional literacy. - Frameworks to apply emotional intelligence as a performance and equity strategy. - A renewed understanding of empathy as the most advanced human technology for collective flourishing.
