Women come. Our signature program is called the lifeshop. They come for a weekend. They get there on a Friday. They don't know each other, for the most part. They're nervous, they're scared and they're anxious because they don't know what the weekend is about.
By the time they leave on Sunday, they have a new tribe. They have friendships that are deep and profound that they've developed over the weekend through commonalities, by sharing their stories, like we've just heard, and by connecting with women. Many of them don't have women friends due to military service and being uprooted every two to three years and changing provinces. Also, some of them are in fields where there aren't a whole lot of them. They can share some of their health challenges and their experiences.
This is what we provide to them, plus a whole slew of other activities, so they continue their journey together.
