Positively Caviar, Inc. Presents Flourish & Grow
A Mental Wellness Back-to-School Workshop
On August 16, 2025, Positively Caviar, Inc. will host our 4rd annual immersive back-to-school mental wellness workshop experience, “Flourish & Grow,” at the R.I.S.E. Demonstration Center in Washington, D.C. This transformative experience is designed to equip middle school-aged youth with experiential tools rooted in positive psychology to increase well-being, build emotional resilience, and actively disrupt mental health stigmas in their schools and communities.
The Flourish & Grow workshop is an immersive, informative, and uplifting experience designed to meet youth where they are — emotionally, mentally, and culturally.
Participants will gain:
Relaxation Techniques – Mindfulness, meditation, yoga, and breathing exercises to help regulate emotions and reduce daily stress.
Self-Esteem & Empowerment Exercises – Activities that promote self-worth, identity, and confidence.
Collaborative Team Building – Group games and challenges that encourage connection, empathy, and communication.
Resilience Tools – Practical coping strategies to positively manage stress, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm.
Goals
To empower youth with actionable, science-based tools they can use every day to strengthen their mental and emotional well-being.
To create a joyful, positive, and interactive environment where youth feel safe to express themselves, connect with peers, and thrive.
To foster self-empowerment by helping youth recognize their own unique strengths, values, and character traits that help them overcome stress and adversity.
To openly discuss mental health and provide relatable, stigma-free strategies for managing stress, anxiety, and symptoms of depression — all while reinforcing the power of optimism and community.

Past Testimonials
“Positively Caviar presented an awesome, amazing, and educational session with the Cherry Hill Elementary Middle School girls. The exercise gave them a sense of inclusion, and it met them where they are. The quality activity and learning experience helped them to achieve social, emotional, and spiritual, well-being. The Girls did not want to leave the session and begged for the presenters to give them more time. As a result, the school, and Season Women Ministries asked for them to come back on a regular basis.”
“This was a powerful workshop that was engaging and provided leading strategies to overcome negative self-talk, subdue negative adversity and maintain a positive mindset. I would highly recommend working with this group and will be working with them again. Their energy, authenticity and vibes were very refreshing and the session went over extremely well. My students and I were able to leave the workshop with more confidence and have a positive growth mindset.”
