Tomorrow! Join us for:

"Prime Your Day for Positivity"

Date: December 17, 2025
Time: 9:00 am – 10:30 am
Location: Virtual – Zoom

Recharge. Rewire. Rise.

As the year winds down, HR professionals juggle open enrollment issues, budget wrap-ups, new policy rollouts, and the whirlwind of holiday chaos. It’s a time of year that can challenge even the most resilient among us.

Join Dr. Kimberly Quinn for an energizing and neuroscience-backed session designed to help you reduce anxiety, manage stress, and retrain your brain for positivity—by becoming the boss of your brain.

Attendees will leave with:

- Practical strategies for managing stress and reducing anxiety.
- Crash course on the science of happiness (which people love!).
- How to live the “optimistic lifestyle” and spend their life-minutes as if they were cash!
- How to remain in the eye of the storm-(calming your mind in the midst of stress and chaos).
