Join us for the second annual UWS Seminar Series featuring Dr. Matthew Condie, as he presents “Soothing the Stress”: Advancing in ambiguity through resilience, belonging, and post-traumatic growth.

Adversity is a common human experience and can be difficult to tolerate, particularly amid ambiguity, challenges, and constant change. If not explored and addressed, these factors can disconnect those currently or aspiring to work in healthcare from their “why.” Therefore, conceptualizing and operationalizing resilience and belonging in the context of post-traumatic growth is necessary. In doing so, individuals, teams, and systems can emerge stronger, more connected, and more aware to navigate future ambiguity.

This keynote will take us on a journey to connect, reflect, empower, and act in preparing, performing, and replenishing in a changing world. Following the keynote, teams can dive deeper and continue the conversations to operationalize the keynote content and bridge intention with action.

Details: Tuesday, April 30, from 12:30 – 1:30 p.m. PT

Here’s a little mindfulness challenge that just might help shift your mornings. It’s a practice from Ryan Holiday, author of the book, Stillness Is The Key. He says it has helped him start his day off with a better mindset and more focused on his priorities.

This week, commit to not touching your phone for at least 10 minutes after you wake up. It’s amazing how most of us grab our phones first thing, sometimes even before getting out of bed. Instead, allow that first 10 minutes to be about connecting with others or noticing how you feel and what is good in the present moment. How we start our day can be how we live our day, so practice starting with quality and calm. Notice what changes.

With a little daily mindfulness, we make our world a better place.

Shine On,

Ami Brimhall
