We are looking for UNB, and other college, students interested in being connected to others, and equipped for life. If you know of a student, young person, or hyphen age who will be in Fredericton this fall, let them know about Lifewise!

Just a reminder that we will not be having a meeting tonight. Thank you for a wonderful time this past school year.

I hope each of you dares to be wise in every area of your life. As the wise man Solomon said, “The reward for humility and fear of the Lord is riches and honor and life.” (Proverbs‬ ‭22‬:‭4‬ ‭ESV‬‬) Now that’s a life worth living!

I hope to see you, and your friends this fall! Until then… Dare to be Wise! 😁

Rescheduled to next Thursday (no meeting on campus this week): Birth Order.

Have you ever considered the importance of your birth order in how it shaped the way you interact with others?

Next week we plan to discuss Kevin Leman's work on the importance and impact of birth order on the nurture aspect of our personalities. For example,

"Firstborns: Often leaders, achievement-oriented, perfectionists, and people-pleasers. They tend to seek approval from authority figures and are typically responsible and reliable. Leman notes that firstborns dominate in leadership roles, with examples including astronauts and political leaders.
..Kevin Leman’s work provides a framework for understanding how family position can shape personality traits, offering practical insights for personal growth, parenting, and interpersonal relationships." (Bing AI generated synopsis, retrieved April 9, 2026)

Are you wise when it comes to emotions, especially in your relationships? Learning to set boundaries on our emotions and be self-aware can save us from pain and keep our inner life peaceful and even joyful!

Learn to be, dare to be, wise.

HELP! Needing help is not a sign of weakness, but not asking for help is foolish. We all need help to overcome sometimes.

This week we hope to focus on two of the great challenges of higher education: first, academic pressure/workload; and second, financial stress. Join us as we examine practical ways to manage and overcome these difficulties. Live wisely!

“A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity.” ~ King Solomon (Proverbs 17:17)

Our Icebreaker this Thursday @ 7pm (UNB SUB): "What is one of your favorite ways to relax and “destress?”"
