Sparking Self-Discovery at Siena College
The Center for Academic Community Engagement (ACE) at Siena College partners with The Mind Wellness Lab to host the Power of the Mind Workshop.
"Taking a deeper look at myself and who I am" — this was one student’s favorite part of the Power of the Mind workshop I conducted last week.
Moments like these remind me why I do this work. My goal is to encourage people to reflect on their lives, challenge old stories, and envision the ones they truly want to live.
I had the privilege of working with an incredible group of students at the Center for Academic Community Engagement (ACE) - Siena College. Their openness, introspection, and willingness to embrace vulnerability at such a young age were truly inspiring. Together, we explored how our mindset shapes our experiences and how even the smallest shifts in perspective can spark profound change.
A huge thank you to Mairead Carr and Joshua Anthony for making this workshop possible! It’s always a joy to collaborate with others in the community who are passionate about empowering students and making a lasting impact.
Here's what the students say
"I like how it was super authentic and personal. You were genuinely speaking to each and every person in this room and encouraging them and helping them to be the better version of themself everyday."

”Each activity page in the worksheet allowed me to be vulnerable and learn more about myself. I love the self examples you gave! I think it’s gives everyone or me at least an opportunity to be vulnerable and honest with myself."
