Saying 'Yes' to Saying 'No': Session 1 of the Thriving Minds Series

Join us for an engaging in-person event on Thursday, October 19, 2023 at 12:00pm (MDT) at Innovate Calgary's Social Innovation Hub (3553 31 Street Northwest, Suite# 290, Calgary, AB T2L 2K7).

In this participatory session, we'll delve into the art (and importance) of saying 'no' and how it can empower us to thrive. Connect with peers around shared experiences and contribute your individual insights into navigating life's demands in the innovation space while maintaining your well-being. 

Collectively Tangled's mental health experts will also share valuable tools that can help you lean into boundary setting and determine realistic priorities when everyone seems to need something from you, especially when those needs seem to be in opposition to one another. The Collectively Tangled and Peer Guidance teams will also share additional resources that are available within the ecosystem and community.

Session attendees will have the opportunity to engage in one-on-one advisory sessions with Peer Guidance mentors, who can further support with topics discussed each month, or can support with additional business/work-related concerns. Registration for advisory sessions will be available on a first come, first served basis following the main event. Additional details provided at the session. A light lunch will also be provided.

Don't miss this opportunity to learn from peers and gain tools for a more balanced and fulfilling life in innovation. Registration is required via Eventbrite. Reserve your spot now for Session 1 of the Thriving Minds Series!
