Two Concurrent Breakout Sessions:

1.) Vision Board Planning Session *Limited Capacity. Seats will be reserved by order of request.*

"Most of us have fleeting ideas of what we want to be, do, or have in our lives. But in the busyness of it all, they remain just that: fleeting. Creating your personal vision board is a way to sell your own ideas to yourself, anchor to your intuitive strengths and dreams, and get clear on your own vision that calls to you for both professional and personal outcomes. In this breakout session, we will give you tools and resources to create your own vision board and walk away with a clearer design for the life you have always imagined you should be living."
 
Speaker:   Kristi Brown
  Regional Consultant, Economic Development
Tennessee Valley Authority 
12:45 – 3:15 p.m.
2.) Getting It All Done with Grace and Ease

Getting It All Done with Grace and Ease is what I believe we all want.  We want to be successful and accomplished and to not forget the milk on the way home.  We have many roles to play and not enough time to feel like we are good enough at any of them.  And, taking time just for you makes you feel guilty. 

Learn my strategies for getting your life and work to work best for you.  This is definitely about time management and focus and priority.  It is also about blending your life and work.  It is also about tips and tricks to make Outlook work for you.  You will leave with definite strategies and real-world stories of how to do life and work better.
