Helene Naftali and oneTRUEzone run a free workshop for families of college-bound or college-age students

Parents, students and educators gathered at Indian Trail Club in Franklin Lakes on Monday, July 22nd for a workshop that served as a wakeup call to parents and students as kids prepare to go back to college or head off to school for the first time.  Helene Naftali demonstrated the importance of self-exploration and clarity as students set a course from school to career.  All attendees took part in self-evaluation exercises and peer group activities to learn more about themselves and what makes them unique.  This self-exploration process allows students to envision a clearer picture of what they hope to get out of college, which will lead to a more direct path to a career they will love.  Helene Naftali, and oneTRUEzone plan on holding more program sessions and free workshops throughout the year.

 

Helene Naftali was also proud to unveil her new book, Own Your Zone: What Students Need to Succeed From School to Career.   The book and the workshop were both well received and participants left with a clearer picture of intentionality and purpose as they prepare for the upcoming school year.
