In order to advance your career and command executive presence, you need to get more comfortable putting yourself out there, taking risks and being truly seen.

Yet as women many of us received messages around the importance of blending in and being liked, but this type of thinking can block you on your path to success.

Lisa Abramson will share tips and strategies that you can start using immediately to overcome self-doubt, tap into your growth mindset and tackle challenges with a newfound sense of confidence, courage and dedication.

When we learn to flip the switch on our inner dialogue, we start to embody a fierce type of resilience that makes us unstoppable.

Do you often feel as though you’re busy rushing around without enough time to get everything done, let alone do the things that matter most to you?  

We often operate on autopilot and in a reactive state that keeps us from our full creativity and intelligence.

Mindfulness teacher and TEDx speaker Lisa Abramson will lead this eye-opening session aimed at teaching you how to create an entirely different approach to success, one that will change your life.

In this session, you’ll experience mindfulness techniques firsthand to help you shift out of autopilot so you can better manage your time and energy and achieve your personal and professional goals.

Learning how to say an effective and appropriate “no” is one of the most vital skills for leaders, yet research shows this is one of the most underutilized tools for women. During this session led by Lisa Abramson, you will learn practical tips for saying no with ease.

Lisa will  cover:

• Why Mindfulness Matters
• The 13 Early Warning Signs of Burnout
• The Busy Trap
• 7 Ways to Say No Without Feeling Guilty
• Exercise: Defining your “yes!” so it’s easier to say no
• Making a commitment to yourself

We all have an internal dialogue and near constant chatter that goes on inside our minds. For many of us, this voice inside our heads is critical and demanding, leaving us feeling depleted and as though we’re never good enough. However, research shows this critical voice can be tamed and there’s a deep wisdom within each of us that can be accessed when we’re mindful.

This session led by Lisa Abramson will focus on using mindfulness as a tool for noticing the inner judge and then consciously shifting its dialogue to be more compassionate and supportive.

While many of us have a belief that we “need” this inner critical voice to push us to be successful, research shows the opposite is true. Cultivating a strong inner coach actually strengthens willpower and allows us to take greater risks in pursuit of our goals.

You will walk away from this session with a better understanding of the origins of your inner critic, and a deeper connection with your inner coach, as well as tools to shift from critic to coach on demand.

What is really stopping you? There is a reason why we don’t already have the things we most deeply desire. We all have some form of fear or resistance that is keeping us stuck. Learn how to move through this resistance by reframing fear and adopting a failure as feedback mindset.

Uncover some of your most deeply held beliefs and trace them back to their source in order to shift them. Learn how to choose a new belief based on your desires rather than the message you received passively from society, family and friends. Connect with your discomfort and fear in the “Befriending Your Feelings” exercise in order to get unstuck. Once you release these blocks, you will be amazed at all that flows in.

How can you achieve your goals while harnessing all your passion and potential?

In today’s 24/7 environment, it’s easy to find yourself feeling pulled in a million directions and getting stuck in the busy trap.

In this session, led by Lisa Abramson, you’ll have a chance to step back, gain a fresh perspective and learn new tools. And by using the “ego versus eco” framework, you’ll be able to identify authentic and meaningful goals which will keep you focused and disciplined, even under pressure.

Lisa will also share top tricks for building resiliency on your path towards achieving your goals and how to deal with obstacles. Finally, Lisa will share the one thing highly successful people do every week in order to make forward momentum and stay focused. She’ll break down this powerful 10 step weekly planning process to move into action right away.

Lisa experienced an incredibly challenging postpartum period, but by hitting rock bottom she was able to kick back to the surface and start seeing things clearly.

With the increasing reliance on social media for “what’s normal,” pregnancy and motherhood can be a judgement minefield and when new moms expectations of motherhood don’t match up to their friends’ polished social media feeds they can find themselves feeling inadequate or worse, like a bad mom. The pressure to do it all, make it look easy, and sacrifice ALL of your “me time,” can leave moms exhausted and depleted.

This intense self sacrificing type of mothering is an especially easy trap for many overachieving and career driven women, having never known how to give anything less than 200%.

By having to face her own shadows, Lisa learned immense and powerful lessons in her recovery that she shares with the audience. From mindfulness, to optimism, to self-compassion and the importance of “me time,” Lisa connects with the modern mom and meets her where she is with practical and actionable insights for well being.
