Phoenix Full Day Session
May 11 | 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM
Brookstreet Hotel

The most powerful professional development and team-building day you’ll ever experience.

Bring your team. Bring yourself. Step out of the noise. Build something that lasts.

Courageous stories in the morning.
Practical mental health tools in the afternoon.

Why This Day Is Different

This is not a conference.
No buzzwords. No panels for the sake of panels.

This is a full day designed for us to slow down, reflect, and walk away with tools that actually support our mental health in real life.

Less noise.
More meaning.
More connection — as individuals and as teams.

Morning Program 9:30 AM - 11:30 AM

Courageous Conversations with Leaders

The morning features our signature Courageous Conversations programming.

Community leaders step forward to share real stories of lived experience with their mental health — openly, honestly, and without polish.

Speakers to be announced soon.

This session is about:

• Normalizing struggle in our professional roles
• Breaking silence at work and beyond
• Creating trust and connection through shared humanity

You leave this session feeling more grounded, more connected, and reminded that we're not alone.

Lunch served by the Brookstreet 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM

Afternoon Program 1:00 PM - 3:30 PM

Build Your Mental Health Playbook

In the afternoon, we move from stories to skills.

This interactive session focuses on building personal mental health playbooks — simple, tangible science-based practices each person can use long after the day ends.

You will leave with tools to:

• Manage stress and overwhelm
• Stay grounded during busy seasons
• Support your mental health intentionally — at work and at home

Practical. Approachable. Designed for real life.

Who This Is For

This day is for:

• Leaders who want to model healthy conversations about mental health
• Individuals who want to pause, reflect, and strengthen their mental health toolkit
• Teams who want a shared experience that builds trust and connection
• Organizations ready to invest in people, not just performance

No preparation required.
Just show up!

What You’ll Leave With

• Stronger connection within your team
• Practical mental health tools you can use
• A personal playbook to return to
• A shared language around mental health
• A sense of calm, clarity, and momentum

Give Your Yourself the Day

Step away from the noise.
Bring your people together.
Spend a day focused on mental health — in a meaningful, human way.

We’d love to have you join us 🧡 #FuelTheMovement
