Think Like an Entrepreneur
Diann Wingert
A growing number of women are opting for the unstable, insecure, risky, and exciting path of working for themselves, either in collaboration with others, or flying solo. Most of them would choose to do it again, even if they aren't experiencing the level of success they set out for.
Choosing the path of self-employment typically means financial instability and insecurity, social and emotional isolation, added stress and pressure on romantic/intimate relationships and increased challenges with mental health, but certain personal attributes may contribute to both choosing the entrepreneurial path and being successful as an entrepreneur.
I don't believe there is one type of person who is destined to be an entrepreneur, nor do I believe that all entrepreneurs are alike. There are many different paths to entrepreneurship and many different personalities that succeed in this lifestyle. But what I do believe is that there are several personality attributes or characteristics that predict your success as an entrepreneur, and even if you were born with them, they can be learned
Meditate Your Way To Peace
Emily Adams
Meditation changed my life during covid-19 and I want to share a little bit about that and also break down how easy meditation really is and talk about some of the common myths around meditation. I would also like to walk them through a meditation along with some journaling at the end so they can see how impactful it can be and how easy it really is. I would also provide them with resources on all the different kind of meditations there are and teach them how to meditate even when they are in public or at work or somewhere they may not be able to close their eyes.

Or simply feel too intimidated.
In this workshop, we will discuss strategies for: -
-
Cultivating courage
-
Sharing persuasive content
-
Demonstrating executive presence, and
-
Overcoming obstacles

Shine Brighter: From Stress to Success.
Meet Lisha
Lisha Davidovits
Imagine your daily stresses are like huge mountains you have to climb and your inner critic like heavy ankle weights making each step even more challenging. Learn to quiet your inner critic, to make the ascent much easier, and set yourself up for greater success now and in the future…with less anxiety and frustration.
That’s the power of strengthening your mental fitness. Just like climbing a mountain is more physically taxing when you’re not physically fit, personal and professional challenges are more mentally stressful when you’re not mentally fit. This workshop is a synthesis of the latest breakthroughs in neuroscience, cognitive and positive psychology, performance science, and Positive Intelligence® research and findings.
During the workshop, participants will:
-
Learn about positive mental muscles (Sage) versus negative (Saboteur) and their
impact on themselves and their lives -
Shine the light on the root sources of their stress and tension (Saboteurs such as
Controller, Stickler, Hyper-Vigilant, and Hyper-Rational) -
Learn powerful ways to weaken their Saboteurs and strengthen their Sage
-
Discover how to overcome challenges in ways that lead to greater success, happiness, and peace of mind
