Make YOUR Difference: Workshop at Bernardsville Library 

The first meeting of Bernardsville Public Library's new inspirational workshop series, “Make YOUR Difference,” will be held on Wednesday, January 25 at 7:00 pm in the library’s Community Room.

"Even though it doesn’t feel like it at times, you absolutely have the ability to make a positive difference in the world," said Professional Inspirer Andrea Mastrobattista, "Through this workshop series, you will uncover what makes you unique and then cultivate those talents and skills so that you are making YOUR difference every day." In this first meeting of the year, the group will demystify the notion that being different is scary or wrong. "Come to this workshop to discover what being different truly means and the positive ways it impacts your life," she continued.

Since 2006, Andrea has been leading her inspirational workshops on Wednesday evenings at the library. She heads a company called Operation INSPIRATION and has also facilitated workshops in the Somerset Hills such as "Facing Your Fears" and "Transforming Negatives Into Positives" in which she helped people to fully form their goals and develop a strong can-do attitude for achieving them. Her core belief is that, no matter what circumstances people face, they have the strength and ability to create and live fulfilling and inspiring lives. Andrea has written her first children's book and is working on getting it published. She also owns Golden Slipper Productions, a company that creates websites, social media profiles and the corresponding promotional materials (such as business cards and brochures) for small and mid-sized businesses.
