Blow off some steam with fellow current and former HHS employees and our allies.

Change is the one constant in life. Sometimes it stems from our own choices; at other times, it’s thrust upon us. This year, many federal workers have experienced profound, externally driven changes to their careers, shifts that ripple across every aspect of life.

In this interactive session, we’ll draw on timeless wisdom and contemporary insights from leading contemporary thinkers. Together, we’ll explore how to take on hard challenges, reimagine our professional identities, and ground ourselves in practical, expansive tools for resilience.

Facilitated by Dr. Pavani Ram, former Chief Medical Officer for Global Health and a trained executive coach and mediator, this session seeks to support you to renew your energy, gain clarity, and leave with actionable tools to guide your own transition and transformation.
