  • The Story of Me - Discovering Your Story Through Conversation, Creativity and Journalling

    Delivered with the Latrobe City Council Teenage School Holiday Program

    Every person has a story worth telling.

    Inspired by the Japanese philosophy of Kintsugi—the art of repairing broken pottery with gold—this workshop encourages young people to see that life's challenges, changes and everyday experiences can help shape who they are becoming.

    Drawing on her own journey as an author and journal coach, Sarah Rosse shares how writing, reflection and meaningful conversations can help us better understand ourselves, build confidence and discover our unique voice. Through stories from her book So, Who Are You Anyway?, she demonstrates how asking honest questions can lead to greater self-awareness, resilience and personal growth.

    Inspired by the connection-centred philosophy of Kintsugi Heroes and Sarah's 100 Conversations Initiative, this workshop explores how listening to others, sharing ideas and reflecting on our own experiences can strengthen our sense of identity and belonging.

    Through interactive activities, creative journalling, guided conversations and storytelling exercises, participants will discover that every experience—whether exciting, challenging or unexpected—has the potential to become part of their story. They will leave with practical tools to express themselves with confidence, reflect on their experiences and recognise that their voice matters.

    Online event - FREE but bookings essential

    A Carers Week conversation with Sarah Rosse and Author & Carer Sarah Martin

    100 Conversations: Carers Edition is a special online conversation created for Carers Week, bringing together author Sarah Rosse and author and carer Sarah Martin for an honest and reflective discussion about the experiences, challenges and often unseen realities of caring.

    Through a shared conversation, Sarah and Sarah will explore what happens when caring becomes a significant part of your identity, the moments when carers can lose sight of themselves, and the importance of being seen, heard and supported as a whole person—not just through the role they provide.

    Drawing on lived experience, storytelling and reflection, this conversation will explore themes of identity, resilience, mental health, connection and the power of sharing our stories.

    This interactive online event will include a conversation between Sarah Rosse and Sarah Martin, followed by an opportunity for audience members to ask questions, share reflections and be part of a wider conversation celebrating the voices and experiences of carers.

    Whether you are a carer, someone supporting a carer, or simply wanting to better understand the caring journey, this event offers a space for connection, compassion and meaningful conversation.
