It’s about the daily\, radical act of stepping into our full humanity — and creating space for others to do the same. \nThis year at Radicle Personhood: A Persons Day Celebration\, we explore a timeless blueprint for personhood –  belonging –  through an ancient story of two women\, who against all odds reshaped their future through agency\, collective wisdom and thoughtful-risk taking.   \nTheir story offers a radical blueprint for how we might belong to ourselves and to the world around us as we express and celebrate personhood.  \n \n\nKeynote: The Persons Case and Belonging \n \nAt the forefront of employment and labour law\, Samantha Seabrook\, founder of Seabrook Workplace Law\,  will share the importance of the famous “Person’s Case” and how it impacts women\, and all persons today through: \n\nAn exploration of how systems of governance and justice need to be held accountable and open to change and celebrating the Famous Five. \nDefining an expansive evolving concept of what it means to be a person today.\nLinking past and present by underscoring the importance of the Persons Day case and how it ensures that definitions of personhood remain expansive\, equitable\, and human‑centered.\n\nThis keynote offers a relevant take on the power of personhood and invites listeners to remain active in shaping the systems that govern them externally\, and internally\, to step into the full expression of their personhood.  \n\nKeynote: Blueprint for personhood: Agency\, Power & Collective Wisdom\n \nIn her signature Garden of Even™ keynote\, Kadie Philp\, (our storyteller and founder) will invite us into the world of Ruth and Naomi — two women who\, against all odds\, reshaped their futures through: \n\nAgency and Personal power  — choosing to act when the world said stay still by reclaiming identity and dignity in the face of loss.\n\nCollective wisdom — knowing survival and flourishing come not from isolation\, but from connection.\n\nThoughtful risk-taking — crossing borders (literal and social) to carve out new possibilities.\n\nTheir story offers a radical blueprint for how we might belong to ourselves and to the world around us as we step into our radicle personhood. It’s about more than survival; it’s about transformation. \n\n \nFireside Chat: Belonging isn’t Borrowed\n \nIn this reflective conversation\, Inna Rozum-Tuka\, Founder of Quiet Tenacity\, joins Kadie Philp\, storyteller and founder of Garden of Even™\, to deepen the keynote’s themes and bring them into our present context. Together\, they will explore: \n\nBelonging as co-creation — moving beyond the idea that belonging is borrowed or given\, and understanding it as something we actively build together.\nCultural curiosity — the practice of engaging with differences as a source of growth\, allowing us to transform systems while staying true to ourselves.\nHome within and with others — discovering how we can feel at home in our own identity while creating spaces where others can belong too.\n\nThis fireside chat invites us to see belonging not as conformity\, but as transformation — a practice that strengthens both our individuality and our shared humanity. \n\nPeople at Work Panel\n \nHear from Lean In Canada and others  on what progress has been made and what is yet to be done to support women’s equity at work. Our panel of thought leaders will cover: \n\nLeading programs that support belonging at work \nCurrent trends in employment law and practices that impact people at work\nThe importance of people and culture\n\n\nWhy You Should Attend: \n\nHonor the legacy of the Persons Case and the Famous Five — and trace the through-line to today’s progress in equity and inclusion.\n\nEngage and connect with thought leaders on the front lines of employment law\, human resources\, people and culture\, and learning and development. \nExplore what it means to be a person at work today with inspiring talks with a dynamic roster of speakers. \nEnjoy a creative space and refreshments in the immersive Garden of Even™ Exhibtion— where creative expression meets professional development and systems  change. Complimentary premium refreshments will be provided to keep the energy flowing! Premium wines provided by Gusto Grapes. \nCelebrate your own radical personhood — with a community that believes being a person is something worth partying over.\n\nAgenda: \n\n5:30 – 6:00PM: Registration with coffee\, tea and light refreshments\n\n6PM –  7:30PM  Programming (in person & online)\n\n7:30 – 9:00 PM: Celebration (live only) — networking reception with premium food and beverage\, Garden of Even™ art exhibition with special guest Tanya Shapenko. \n\nDetails: \n\nDate: October 16\, 2025\nLocation: Downtown Toronto\, 227 Bloor St. East\nTime: 5:30PM – 9:00PM\nTicket: $99 CAD + Tax (Use Promo Code QUIETTENACITY10 for 10% off)\n\nFull details & registration URL:https://quiettenacity.com/event/radicle-personhood-2025-a-blueprint-for-belonging/ LOCATION:Downtown Toronto END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20251031T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20251031T130000 DTSTAMP:20260407T071511 CREATED:20240826T170107Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240826T210428Z UID:1927-1761912000-1761915600@quiettenacity.com SUMMARY:October Reflection Hour DESCRIPTION:Winners do not have “To-Do Lists”.

We’ll explore questions around identity\, leadership\, and what it truly means to grow as a person. \nWhether you’ve read the book in full or are just curious about its central ideas\, all are welcome. Expect lively conversation\, honest reflection\, and new perspectives on what it really means to be “yourself.” \nRegister \nAll proceeds from this event will support a local Canadian charity. \nDon’t have the book yet? \nBuy Now URL:https://quiettenacity.com/event/good-reads-for-strong-roots-4/ LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20260108T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20260108T210000 DTSTAMP:20260407T071511 CREATED:20250926T084511Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251222T191758Z UID:1892-1767895200-1767906000@quiettenacity.com SUMMARY:Learn to Learn: Plan Your Learning Year with Intention DESCRIPTION:Learn to Learn \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \nPlan Your Learning Year with Intention\n\nMost professionals don’t fail at learning because they lack discipline.They fail because they never stop to plan their learning strategically. \nCourses get started and abandoned.Books pile up unread.Budgets for professional development go unused — or are spent without impact. \nLearn to Learn is a once-a-year opportunity to pause\, step back\, and intentionally design your learning for the year ahead. \nThis is not a motivational workshop.It’s a planning and decision-making session. \nDuring this live workshop\, we will work directly with the Quiet Tenacity Yearly Learning Planner — a structured template designed to help you reflect\, plan\, track\, and evaluate your learning across an entire year \nYou will leave with a clear\, realistic\, and personalized learning plan for the next year — aligned with your goals\, your capacity\, and the realities of Canadian workplaces. \nWhat We’ll Do Together\n1. Plan your learning year — end to end \nYou will work with a structured yearly template to: \n\nreflect on skills you actually need (not just what’s trending)\,\nprioritize learning instead of overloading yourself\,\nmap learning across the year in a way that is sustainable and measurable\,\nthink through time\, energy\, and budget — realistically.\n\nThis is about learning with intention\, not accumulation. \n  2. Understand the Canadian PD & learning landscape \nYou’ll receive practical insights into: \n\nhow professional development budgets work in Canadian organizations\,\nwhat employers actually value when it comes to learning\,\nhow to leverage internal learning\, external programs\, and informal learning\,\nwhere people often leave value on the table — simply because they don’t know how the system works.\n\nThis section helps you learn strategically\, not blindly. \n3. Examine habits\, blind spots\, and learning myths\nWe will look honestly at: \n\ncommon myths about learning (including learning styles and productivity beliefs)\,\nhabits that feel productive but don’t lead to results\,\nwhy “more effort” often doesn’t equal better outcomes\,\nhow neuroscience\, behavioural psychology\, and technology can support — or sabotage — your learning.\n\nYou’ll assess whether your current learning processes are actually helping you achieve results — and what needs to change. \nRegister \n\n\n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \nWho this workshop is for: \n \n\n \n \n\nImmigrants and internationally educated professionals navigating Canadian workplaces\nProfessionals who invest in learning but don’t see proportional results\nPeople who want a clear\, calm\, and structured learning plan for the year ahead\nAnyone tired of reacting to trends instead of choosing deliberately\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nFormat & Delivery \n \n\n \n \n\nLive\, interactive online workshop\nReflective\, practical\, and discussion-based\nNo jargon.

It’s about developing the awareness and tools to navigate all kinds of difference — gender\, generation\, profession\, communication style\, worldview — far beyond ethnicity alone. \nWhy it matters now\nToday’s workplaces are layered and fast-moving. Your project team might span five time zones. Your client’s decisions might be shaped by a political climate and cultural views you’ve never experienced. The colleague you clash with might not see the problem you’re trying to solve — and you won’t know why unless you can slow down\, notice\, and ask the right questions. \nCuriosity is what turns those moments from potential roadblocks into breakthroughs. And yes — research shows it can be developed. \n\nHow we do it\nOver three live\, half-day sessions — and in the flow of your real life between them — you’ll explore: \n\nThe difference between curiosity as a trait and curiosity as a state you can switch on.\nWhat fuels or shuts down your curiosity (and how to shift it in the moment).\nA practical “taxonomy of questions” so you stop asking what’s easy and start asking what’s useful.\nHow curiosity works inside emotional intelligence and cultural intelligence.\nHow to use curiosity to diffuse tension\, find common ground\, and open space for better ideas.\n\nBetween sessions\, you’ll live your learning: tracking moments of curiosity\, swapping stories in a private group chat\, drawing insight from films\, real-world cases\, proverbs\, and even fairytales that reveal insights. \nOnce a year\, you’ll have the option to join our in person Cultural Curiosity Community gathering — a social\, off-the-clock space for curious minds to connect\, share\, and inspire. \n\n\n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \nContent Highlights \n \n\n \n \n\nDecode Your Cultural Lens – Recognize the values\, habits\, and assumptions that shape how you see and respond to the world.\nMap New Environments with Purpose – Learn a framework for quickly understanding and adapting to unfamiliar cultural\, generational\, or professional settings.\nBuild Relationships Across Differences – Use targeted\, curiosity-driven questions to connect with colleagues\, leaders\, and career sponsors in meaningful ways.\nNavigate Conflict with Cultural Curiosity – Apply curiosity to uncover root causes\, reduce tension\, and find solutions in diverse work environments.\nLead with Curiosity to Unlock Innovation – Create team cultures where differences drive creativity\, problem-solving\, and shared success.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \nTarget Audience \n \n\n \n \nProfessionals working in diverse environments who want to strengthen their ability to navigate differences\, build trust\, and collaborate effectively across perspectives.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \nFormat/Delivery \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nThree-week interactive online experience with half-day live sessions and between-session real-life practice.\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \nInstructor \n \n\n \n \nInna Rozum-Tuka — experienced training and development professional with over 20 years in learning program design and delivery.\nRead full bio here. \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \nCertification \n \n\n \n \nCertificate of completion. \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \nPricing \n \n\n \n \n$997.00 CAD + Taxes\nFor group discounts on 2 or more participants\, reach out to info@quiettenacity.com URL:https://quiettenacity.com/event/the-quiet-tenacity-cultural-curiosity-training-q1-2026/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20260326T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20260326T203000 DTSTAMP:20260407T071511 CREATED:20251020T162850Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260318T180517Z UID:2551-1774548000-1774557000@quiettenacity.com SUMMARY:From Frustration to Cooperation DESCRIPTION:  \nRegistration for this event is now closed.

It’s about developing the awareness and tools to navigate all kinds of difference — gender\, generation\, profession\, communication style\, worldview — far beyond ethnicity alone. \nWhy it matters now\nToday’s workplaces are layered and fast-moving. Your project team might span five time zones. Your client’s decisions might be shaped by a political climate and cultural views you’ve never experienced. The colleague you clash with might not see the problem you’re trying to solve — and you won’t know why unless you can slow down\, notice\, and ask the right questions. \nCuriosity is what turns those moments from potential roadblocks into breakthroughs. And yes — research shows it can be developed. \n\nHow we do it\nOver three live\, half-day sessions — and in the flow of your real life between them — you’ll explore: \n\nThe difference between curiosity as a trait and curiosity as a state you can switch on.\nWhat fuels or shuts down your curiosity (and how to shift it in the moment).\nA practical “taxonomy of questions” so you stop asking what’s easy and start asking what’s useful.\nHow curiosity works inside emotional intelligence and cultural intelligence.\nHow to use curiosity to diffuse tension\, find common ground\, and open space for better ideas.\n\nBetween sessions\, you’ll live your learning: tracking moments of curiosity\, swapping stories in a private group chat\, drawing insight from films\, real-world cases\, proverbs\, and even fairytales that reveal insights. \nOnce a year\, you’ll have the option to join our in person Cultural Curiosity Community gathering — a social\, off-the-clock space for curious minds to connect\, share\, and inspire. \nRegister \n\n\n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \nContent Highlights \n \n\n \n \n\nDecode Your Cultural Lens – Recognize the values\, habits\, and assumptions that shape how you see and respond to the world.\nMap New Environments with Purpose – Learn a framework for quickly understanding and adapting to unfamiliar cultural\, generational\, or professional settings.\nBuild Relationships Across Differences – Use targeted\, curiosity-driven questions to connect with colleagues\, leaders\, and career sponsors in meaningful ways.\nNavigate Conflict with Cultural Curiosity – Apply curiosity to uncover root causes\, reduce tension\, and find solutions in diverse work environments.\nLead with Curiosity to Unlock Innovation – Create team cultures where differences drive creativity\, problem-solving\, and shared success.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \nTarget Audience \n \n\n \n \nProfessionals working in diverse environments who want to strengthen their ability to navigate differences\, build trust\, and collaborate effectively across perspectives.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \nFormat/Delivery \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nThree-week interactive online experience with half-day live sessions and between-session real-life practice.\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \nInstructor \n \n\n \n \nInna Rozum-Tuka — experienced training and development professional with over 20 years in learning program design and delivery.\nRead full bio here. \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \nCertification \n \n\n \n \nCertificate of completion. \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \nPricing \n \n\n \n \n$997.00 CAD + Taxes\nFor group discounts on 2 or more participants\, reach out to info@quiettenacity.com URL:https://quiettenacity.com/event/the-quiet-tenacity-cultural-curiosity-q2-2026/ LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20260716T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20260716T200000 DTSTAMP:20260407T071511 CREATED:20260318T180354Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260318T180513Z UID:2675-1784224800-1784232000@quiettenacity.com SUMMARY:From Frustration to Cooperation DESCRIPTION:From Frustration\nto Cooperation \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \nManaging difficult relationships in the workplace can be challenging.
