Designing Your Life is a mini-workshop that shows people how to approach their lives with insight and creativity. This hands-on, personal journey provides an opportunity to dive into the logistics of life design and learn how to reframe dysfunctional beliefs. This joyful, profound experience is not to be missed.

Led by celebrated faculty members and authors Bill Burnett, ’79, MS ’82, and Dave Evans, ’75, MS ’76, this interactive experience is pulled from their Stanford course—one of the most popular on campus!

Light refreshments will be served. Signed copies of the newly released book Designing Your Life: How to Build a Well-Lived, Joyful Life by Bill Burnett and Dave Evans will be available for purchase at the event. Or you can purchase your book online for delivery on September 20!

This event is presented by the Stanford Alumni Association in partnership with local New York alumni clubs and regional Connectors and with special thanks to Alumni Career Services.

Cancellation/Refund Policy: The last day to cancel and receive a full refund is Monday, September 5. No refunds will be given after this date.
