It’s easy to go through the day reacting to all that’s happening. What if, instead of reacting, we practice BEacting? In this session, Megan will build on the idea that we have choices, and that it is possible (and preferable) to know and name our emotions as they are, even as we aim towards better (whatever better looks like in this moment). Megan will also set the stage for the rest of the speakers this week.
