From Zero to Everyday Hero: It's All in Your Head

Who you decide to be in this world matters. That's why-with the right attitude-no job is small and profound satisfaction can come from finding meaning in everyday actions. By learning how their brain affects their own behavior and influences people around them, attendees discover how to take responsibility for their actions and their attitude. They'll explore how to bring a positive attitude from "inside" rather than trying to extract it from external events during the day. They'll realize that for every act of violence and horror we hear about there are thousands of unheralded acts of kindness. They'll laugh while discovering delightfully practical ways to develop kindness, positivity and deal more effectively with negative people and situations. Specific examples of kindness, generosity and positivity can be included from your own organization.

Choices, Chances, Changes: The 3 Cs of Life

You must make a choice to take a chance or your life will never change. No more being stuck or blaming others! This hilarious but poignant presentation explores how brain and behavior science can help you take back your power to shape your own destiny by making conscious choices and taking chances that align with your goals. Attendees will discover how to improve "choice-making" by putting space between their impulses and their actions. This gives them time to reframe challenges and literally change the way they look at things and how they choose to move forward through change. They'll learn how to self-guide by asking questions such as, "Will this choice put me closer to or further from my goal?" and "Is what I'm about to say necessary? Will it strengthen my relationship bridge or weaken it?" Attendees will even discover how to find meaning-and value-in failures and how to take brave chances that will create positive change in their lives. Examples of the specific types of challenges your organization and audience face can be included.

Don't Believe Everything You Think!

Information overload. Decision overload. Overload overload. Does it feel like you're speed-walking through life-with a pebble in your shoe? For anyone in chronic overdrive or stuck in a life that no longer fits, this presentation reminds us of our power to stop and take a breath so we can respond rather than simply react. Attendees discover how thoughts create emotions-and why it's dangerous to believe everything you think! They'll explore how the behavioral science behind anxiety, anger and fear make it impossible to access our "thinking" brain and leave our "ancient" fight-or-flight brain in charge. Attendees will laugh while learning how to trade this constant reactivity for a positive and empowering way of interacting with the world, including how to make those all-important human connections that keep us happier at home and at work.

It's Not You, It's Your Brain

Did you know that every day you are exposed to as much information as your 15th century ancestor experienced in a lifetime? You are not only experiencing epidemic "overwhelm" of information and choices, you're being asked to do more with less. Time management isn't enough. Today you need MIND MANAGEMENT. Amy's hilarious stories and memorable metaphors will help you organize your day for better brain benefit, and steer around cognitive biases that hinder objective thinking, and positively deal with daily challenges. Amy will explain how self-compassion leads to better customer service. Laugh while learning practical tools you can immediately apply to make every day more productive and satisfying.
