SUMMARY:Brave Women: Revelatory Memoirs - A Conversation with Marlena Fiol and Nita Sweeney
DESCRIPTION:Brave Women: Revelatory Memoirs – A Conversation with Marlena Fiol and Nita Sweeney\nFriday\, December 18\, 2020 at 12:00 Pacific / 3:00 pm Eastern \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow do we overcome life’s challenges? What stirs us to change? What makes some of us choose to reveal all of this in writing? \nIn their memoirs\, authors Marlena Fiol and Nita Sweeney speak candidly about depression\, childhood abuse\, parenting issues\, and inequality. Each discusses the transformation they experienced in facing these difficulties. \nJoin these two authors for a conversation about what motivated them to take the initial steps that led to overcoming these challenges. They will also discuss other brave women who have risen up despite seemingly “invincible” life barriers. \nThe two will also talk about writing memoir\, why they chose to reveal themselves so fully in their writing\, and the impact that vulnerability has had on their lives. \nBios:\nAs a consultant and professor of strategic management\, Marlena Fiol\, PhD\, has guided her students and clients in visualizing their dreams and bringing them to reality. Over half of her 85 published articles and books relate to identity and identity change. Today\, as a blogger\, essayist\, novelist and memoirist\, Fiol still engages in a similar mission. Every blog\, essay\, book or workshop provides an opportunity to explore who we are and what’s possible in our lives. Her new book Nothing Bad Between Us: A Mennonite Missionary’s Daughter Finds Healing in Her Brokenness (to be released by Mango Publishing on 10/27/20) is a vulnerable and inspirational tale of personal transformation. Raised in Paraguay on a leprosy station\, today Fiol lives with her husband Ed in Eugene\, Oregon. \n  \nNita Sweeney is the award-winning wellness author of the running and mental health memoir\, Depression Hates a Moving Target: How Running with My Dog Brought Me Back from the Brink and coauthor of the writing journal\, You Should Be Writing. Nita also meditates and runs marathons. She lives in central Ohio with her husband Ed\, and their yellow Labrador retriever\, Scarlet. \nWhere: Zoom –Zoom (link provided via email when you register)
