You’ll walk away ready to:
☀️ approach challenging moments with curiosity
☀️ strengthen connections
☀️ create spaces where both youth and adults can thrive

From Reaction to Response: EMOTIONS ARE HUMAN
Wednesday, March 5 | 10:00 - 11:00 MT
REGISTER HERE: https://ow.ly/zNNE50V7KAu

We all have emotional hot buttons that cause us to show up as less than our best. Once we see and recognize these triggers, we can regain control over them. One important part of the process is to understand what sets us off. When we add clear action steps for what to do in these moments, we can quickly get back to showing up fully for our teams, communities and the young people we serve.

Discover...
• what part the brain plays in reactionary behavior
• how past messages impact our current emotions
• your personalized plan for managing hot buttons
