Featured Presentation

The art of being okay: Finding courage, clarity, and purpose amid life’s chaos

We’ve all done it…told someone we’re okay when we’re not. We get it – life can be messy! The ability to be truly okay is not a default state but something that requires effort, practice, and intentionality, much like an art form. Our well-being is a skill that needs to be continually cultivated. It takes resilience and strength to overcome life’s hardships, understanding and self-awareness to navigate challenges, and a sense of direction and motivation to push through uncertainty.

Join us as our honored speaker, Justin, shares from his heart about the harrowing challenges he’s faced. With raw honesty, he reveals how he navigated the depths of emotional chaos and emerged with peace, courage, and direction – thanks to his family, friends, treatment teams, and faith.

Get ready to leave that afternoon feeling uplifted, renewed, and equipped with helpful tips – so the next time you say, “I’m okay,” you’ll truly mean it.
