SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Navigating the Third Act: Retiring with Confidence and Purpose
DESCRIPTION:Retirement today is less a finish line than a transition into a “third act” of life and work. This webinar explores how to step away from a primary career with confidence\, identity clarity\, and a sense of purpose. We will discuss common emotional and practical challenges — including shifting routines\, relationships\, and meaning — and strategies for designing what comes next.\n\nTogether\, we will:\nIdentify key nonfinancial questions to answer before retiring: purpose\, structure\, community\, health\, and identity.\nAssess readiness for change and anticipate common transition pitfalls.\nCreate a simple “third act” plan with near-term experiments: volunteering\, part-time work\, learning\, caregiving\, and entrepreneurship.\nDevelop language to communicate your transition goals with family\, colleagues\, and mentors.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:When Your Team Keeps Getting Stuck: Working With Tension\, Conflict\, and Challenging Dynamics
DESCRIPTION:The pace of work and the pressure to deliver create just the right conditions for tension to build in teams. You may leave interactions feeling frustrated\, wondering why your team keeps having the same conversations\, avoids the hard ones\, or allows small issues to escalate into major misunderstandings.\n\nIf only other people would pull themselves together\, everything would go smoothly\, right?\n\nHere’s something you may not realize: your communication style may be unintentionally contributing to the very dynamics that frustrate you.\n\nIn this session\, you will learn how to spot the patterns underneath your team’s stuck conversations — and what to do about them. We will explore the four modes of communication that show up in every conversation\, how missing actions create conflict\, and the five common stuck patterns that play out in teams every day.\n\nYou will leave with a practical framework you can use immediately — in your next meeting\, your next hard conversation\, or your next moment of “here we go again.”\n\nWhat you will learn:\n\nHow to shift the role you might be playing in your team’s stuck patterns\nHow to spot the communication patterns that keep your team going in circles\nThe four modes of communication present in every conversation\, and what happens when one goes missing\nThe five most common stuck patterns that show up in teams\nPractical moves you can make to change the conversation in real time
