Anne Grady began studying the brain and neurodevelopment to find answers while searching for treatment options for her son, Evan, after he was diagnosed with severe mental illness and Autism. Then, after being diagnosed with an avocado-sized tumor in her salivary gland in 2014, she had to lean on the tools she learned with her son to help her through this difficult time.
Now, she wants to help others cultivate the habits and skills to build strength through struggle with the science behind resilience.

HOW CAN YOU BUILD RESILIENCE?
MINDSET
Understand your brain, your habits, and the belief systems that can both support and sabotage your resilience.
SKILL SET
Learn to cultivate positive emotions, make stress work for you, and engage in activities that proactively build resilience.
RESET
Step out of reactivity to focus on what is most important, resetting your nervous system, priorities and perspective.
Learning Objectives
Anxiety, stress, and burnout are at an all-time high, and if we don’t take time to reset, the physical and psychological results can be catastrophic. More than training, education, or experience, your resilience determines your success, personally and professionally.
Fortunately, resilience is a set of skills and habits that can be learned and cultivated. Learn how to take back control, make stress work for you, and cultivate a resilient mindset, skill set, and the ability to reset.

Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.
