英語の表現に”midlife crisis”というのがあります。文字通り、人生の中間点に差し掛かった時、女性の役割と限定されるべきではないが、現実的に育児、子育てが終わる頃の多くの女性たちが、ふと人生をふりかえり様々な思いが込み上げてくる様態のことです。年齢や世代、ジェンダーに関係なく、自分の中に秘められている可能性を更に探り、具体的に何に挑戦したいのかを発見するきっかけを提供するラボです。具体的な方向性だけではなく、自分で気がついていない資質を発見あるいは再肯定する手助けをします。
A lab for self-discovery and enlightenment
There is an English expression, ‘midlife crisis’. As the words suggest, it refers to the approach of life’s midpoint. Without wanting to say anything about women’s roles or constraints, for many of them a period of childcare and childrearing is over and they find themselves reflecting on their lives, their minds full.
No matter of what generation or age they may be, this lab will enable such women to look within themselves for hidden possibilities, and specifically for challenges they may wish to meet. Without being confined to a rigid pathway, participants will be helped to uncover questions that had either not occurred to them, or that had and need to be reaffirmed.
