Disclosure · what is sharedoptional
Participants surface and rank their core values through imagination and ordering tasks, then examine honestly where recent actions expressed or contradicted them, and commit to one concrete value-reflecting change. Solo work first, sharing in duos, harvest in the group.
Hold with care
