SUMMARY:1 Million Cups Cedar Rapids: Randori Life
DESCRIPTION:This Week:\nRandori Life was founded by Greg Happel on the belief that personal growth shouldn’t feel like running on a treadmill to nowhere. Too often\, traditional self-improvement methods overlook the diversity of how our brains work—focusing on rigid routines and one-size-fits-all solutions that lead to burnout rather than balance. \nDrawing inspiration from martial arts philosophy and the principles of neurodiversity\, Randori Life helps individuals stop fighting themselves and start working with their own minds. Its approach shifts the focus from a “have to” mentality to a “want to” mindset\, offering practical training rooted in awareness\, discipline\, and purpose. Rather than prescribing quick fixes\, Randori Life teaches both what to do and why—empowering people to move through life with clarity\, confidence\, and self-compassion. https://randorilife.com/ \n\nProgram schedule\n\n8:45 to 9:00 – Coffee & Conversation\n9:00 to 9:45 – Official Program\n9:45 to 10:00 – Q&A\n\nIf you will need disability-related accommodations in order to participate in this event\, please contact Event Coordinator Jan@newbo.co .
