Parenting these days seems more difficult than ever. Juggling schedules, negotiat-ing priorities and integrating technology leaves many parents frazzled and con-fused. In this interactive presentation, Donna Volpitta, Ed.D will teach participants some very simple tools to help kids make more mindful, informed decisions.

The best part? The model can be applied to any challenge and any relationship. As one former participant said, “You changed the way I interact with my kids, but you made an even stronger impact on the way I interact with my employees and my spouse.”

Do you want to expand your capacity to be in and stay in relationship with others? Are you looking to increase your awareness of self and connection to others? Join Donna Volpitta, Ed.D. ’94 to deepen your understanding of the most powerful tool you already own: your brain! The Resilient Mindset Model provides a framework for understanding how your brain works, enabling you to make better, more mindful choices to increase presence with yourself, others, your work, and your life.
