Fear is a natural part of change. It’s easy to stay in the comfort of the status quo. But what do we lose when we don’t lead with courage and move toward change? In this two-part workshop, we’ll explore concrete tools that will give you a foundation for living and leading more courageously and overcoming fear that comes with change. Participants will get:
- Concrete tools that will help you enact your vision and manage fear
- A plan to practice these tools and move forward on your path
- An accountability partner to help you stay on course
This workshop will be in two parts: Tuesday, March 1st from 10-11 AM and Tuesday, March 8th from 10-11 AM.
Tickets are pay-what-you-can, valued at $24/person.

Stacie and Jeff Cook understand commitment. They live it.
Black, Jewish and Queer. These three identities weave the fabric of who I am, but it took a long time to believe that they could exist together.
Lee and Toni Leichtag established the Leichtag Foundation in 1991 following the sale of their business. Lee and Toni were lifelong entrepreneurs with a passion for innovation and for supporting talent. They believed that only with big risk comes big reward. Both born to families in poverty, Toni to a single mother, they strongly believed in helping those most in need and most vulnerable in our community. While they supported many causes, their strongest support was for young children and the elderly, two demographics who particularly lack voice in our society.
Lifelong Baltimoreans, Rabbi George and Alison Wielechowski and their sons, 11-year-old Lennon and 9-year-old Gideon, are more than pursuing the good life in Southern California. Having moved to San Diego more than three years ago, they are fulfilling a lifelong dream.
You would think that as the executive director of San Diego LGBT Pride, Fernando Zweifach López Jr., who uses the pronoun they, has done all the coming out they possibly can. A queer, non-binary individual who has worked for many years on civil rights issues, López also speaks openly and often about their father’s family, Mexican-American migrant workers who tilled the fields of rural California.
