Your brain literally changes when you create moments of gratitude.

It’s not about forced positivity - it’s about giving your nervous system a chance to recover, regulate, and reconnect.

🧠 A daily 20-second pause to acknowledge something meaningful can shift your emotional baseline over time.

This Giving Tuesday we are proud to introduce Youth Empowerment Network, YEN! This exciting partnership between Olympia Therapy and Camp Sealth (on beautiful Vashon Island) seeks to bridge the gap between mental health and youth programming through the therapeutic powers of play, nature, recreation, creative expression, camping, experiential learning, and leadership education. Our first Summer Camp in 2026 - Sense the Adventure - is the opportunity for all this to fall into place. Learn more about Sense the Adventure at Camp Sealth & register HERE! (https://campfireseattle.org/camp-sealth-overnight-camp/camp-descriptions/specialty-camps/sense-the-adventure/)

In YEN’s first year, we dream of being able to host ten campers at Sense the Adventure. In order to do that we need to raise $10,000! We invite you to join us at the very beginning - donations of any size will make a difference.

Your support will help provide youth empowerment and leadership development, bridging the gap between mental health and youth programming through the therapeutic powers of play, nature, recreation, creative expression, camping, experiential learning, and leadership education. Contribute quickly and easily HERE! (https://yen.betterworld.org/campaigns/yen-summer-camp-2026-funding?utm_source=customer&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=fsm)
We hope you’ll join us on our exciting journey, and keep an eye out for updates!

Happy Holidays from the YEN Team

Courage isn’t the absence of fear, but the willingness to be vulnerable. Embracing uncertainty, taking risks, and allowing ourselves to experience joy are all acts of strength. 🤍
