Info: Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese martial art. It's hardly as mainstream as aerobics or the treadmill, but with its gentle, fluid movements and proven health benefits, it’s a whole body workout. Although initially developed for combat and self-defense it is also a form of exercise and meditation. It's performed as gentle, low-impact movement in with a series of deliberate, flowing motions while focusing on deep, slow breaths. In addition to improving balance and regaining movement and fluidity in the joints, it can be meditative. But no, it's not religion.

Info: Experience mental wellbeing in a virtual reality setting.

Info: John is the Founder and CEO of Azimuth Leadership LLC, a behavioral health leadership platform which focuses on providing relevant resiliency through culturally competent panel conversations in sports, military, recovery, mental health and clinical communities. In 2022, John made his most authentic and important leadership decision which resulted in the creation of The Alphas & ACE's Foundation. The genesis of this foundation was being “awoken from broken” after he began to understand how an Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) impacted his life. In today's conversation John will LEAN into his life, along with those of his panel, LEARN from their collective lessons, and LEVERAGE them for leadership and the opportunity to not only "SURVIVE but THRIVE!”

Info: Before considering 'What should I be invested in?' Let's talk about basic blocking and tackling. Yes, there are tax considerations regarding your health. All those choices during benefits enrollment have an impact and most apps just help you not overdraft your account - important, but not actually proactive about your financial household. Let's talk about the intersection of health and tax law.

Info: In this final session each of our presenters will review and provide the attendees with the "So What???" of our day. We look forward to engaging in group discussion along with delivering practical takeaways for Moving Beyond Survival in Daily Life.
