WESOS Aurora: Stepping Out of Drama Into Empowerment

Join us in Aurora, IL on November 7, 2025 to network and hear from our featured member speaker, Maren Oslac.

Behind every stalled project, miscommunication, and resistance to change lies an invisible pattern: the Drama Triangle.

It’s an unconscious dynamic.

Team members (co-workers, family, friends, etc) unconsciously find themselves in the roles of Victim, Villain, and Hero - a dynamic that drains energy, erodes trust, and kills innovation before it starts.

In this eye-opening session, embodied leadership expert Maren Oslac reveals how even the most well-meaning people get trapped in this cycle—and how to break free.

• Recognize the subtle signs of that the Drama Triangle is at work
• Shift from ‘reactive’ to empowered and creative
• Cultivate environments where innovation and psychological safety flourish
• Ground personal responsibility without blame or burnout

• 12:00 - 12: 30: Arrival & Open Networking and Lunch
