"Am I Going Home? Exploring the Concepts of Home, Identity, and Wellbeing"

This presentation delves into Aristotle’s rhetorical elements of Ethos, Logos, and Pathos, emphasizing the experiential level of understanding over merely intellectual engagement. It addresses the essence of "home," not as a physical location, but as a state of being tied to our sense of self and community. Through poignant stories of children facing adversity and the struggles with mental health, it highlights the journey of finding belonging and grace. Join us in redefining our perceptions of home, identity, and ultimately, wellbeing.
