Climbing Your Way to Success
Deb Ellenberg
Vice President, Business Development, Sandler Training
So often we look up, way up, and think, I’m never going make it. Whether we are contemplating our personal or professional goals, or seeing what other people are accomplishing, those feelings of frustration or self-doubt often arise by what appears to be a massive climb to get to where we want to go. We often fail to see that it really only takes one step to get started, and another step after that. We will address the key elements that will enable you to make your ‘climb’ to reach your goals.
At the end of this presentation, attendees will: identify what their roadblocks are to success; redefine the way they think about success; and establish a plan for achieving their goals.
October 28 from 2 to 3 p.m. - Breakout Session 3
Eating4Life
Kathy Snavely
Owner, Kathy’s Cuisine & Lightkeeper Consulting
Everything we consume effects how we feel – and those consequences can vary widely from person-to-person. Allergies, gluten, vegan, paleo, keto, sugar are considerations for some – but there are foods that most of us can consume that make us feel better, have the potential to keep us healthier, combat disease and live longer, stronger – and be more productive. (And who doesn’t want that?) This presentation will highlight foods that are health enhancers and killers, so you can make the best choices for your life!
