Keynote Speaker: Rochelle Anderson
Staying on Track and Being Mindful in a Distracted World
This hour will be filled with laughter, skill building, wonderment, encouragement, and inspiration!
Rochelle Anderson is a Mental Health Therapist and Professional Life Coach. She has years of experience helping individuals to find their compass, stay on track, and discover meaning in their lives. We live in a very distracted world; technology, schedules, expectations, and emotions can rule our day to day. What if you had the tools to regulate your day/week/months to feel fulfilled and whole? Would your life be better and more balanced? When we can identify stress, explore your emotional mind, understand the power of change, and be responsibility to Self; we will have the most powerful tools to bring change to our lives. This, simply put, whether at work or at home, is learning how to regulate your emotional state. We have emotions and they can make or break us. We cannot remove them, they are hard wired. But most people don’t realize that if they embrace and practice using certain tools, they will have the power and the control of their thoughts, feelings and behaviors which in turn can increase how they work, think, and care.
