Port Macquarie Library
32 Grant St
Port Macquarie, New South Wales 2444 Australia

Join Emily at Port Macquarie Library on Saturday 13th of September at 11.00am for the Hope in the face of challenge workshop.

What if the hardest moments in life held the seeds of your greatest strength?

In this uplifting and interactive 2-hour workshop, mental health educator and peer facilitator Emily Barber guides you through gentle practices to help reframe life’s challenges as stepping stones to personal growth, hope, and resilience.

Whether you’re navigating change, reflecting on the past, or simply seeking a boost in perspective, this session offers a supportive space to:

  • Discover how adversity can shape inner strength
  • Learn simple mindset shifts that build resilience
  • Explore guided journaling and mindfulness tools
  • Create a “Hope Action Plan” to carry forward

This session builds on our earlier Cultivating Hope workshop but is open and accessible to all, whether you attended the first session or not.

Facilitator: Emily Barber – Founder of At Nature’s Pace PMQ and creator of the Thrive in 2025 initiative, Emily combines lived experience with holistic recovery frameworks, mindfulness, and trauma-informed tools to support individual wellbeing.
