This workshop explores the emotional and psychological effects of immigration—culture shock\, identity shifts\, adaptation fatigue\, and the stressors that newcomers often experience silently.Through accessible explanations and real-life examples\, participants will learn how to recognize emotional challenges\, build resilience\, and reconnect with their purpose for coming to Canada.\n\n\n\n\n\nFacilitators\n\n\n\n\n\nAurélie (French session):\n\n\n\nBorn and raised in Paris\, France\, Aurelie Ky is the daughter of parents who immigrated from Cambodia in the 1980s. She studied psychology and neuroscience in the United States\, where she learned English\, and later earned a master’s degree in neuroscience in Canada (McGill University). Now based back in France\, she has worked for six years as an online French and English language tutor. She also created Education Monsters\, a podcast on multicultural education that explores traveling\, studying or working abroad\, discrimination\, anti-racism\, and challenging stereotypes\, and she is currently writing children’s books about emotions and neuroscience.\n\n\n\nLanguage Tutor: Aurelie teaches French and English online in a relaxed and easygoing way. As a native Parisian\, she offers French courses with a natural Parisian accent.

Her work focuses on normalizing these experiences and helping individuals build resilience through awareness\, connection\, and community.\n\n\n\nHappy Hour with Chica: Happy Hour with Chica is a mental wellness initiative focused on reducing loneliness and anxiety through simple\, shared moments of connection. It creates low-pressure spaces for people\, especially newcomers\, to feel seen\, supported\, and grounded through everyday activities and conversation.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWhat to expect\n\n\n\n\n\n1.
