SUMMARY:EO Chicago Spring Forum Training
DESCRIPTION:This will be a full day\, in-person forum training for all new SLPs & Members. \nForums are at the heart of EO. These safe\, confidential groups foster EO members’ peer-to-peer discussion and reflection in a supportive\, noncompetitive and nonjudgmental atmosphere. An SLP Forum works the same way\, but allows members’ SLPs to meet regularly with others who may share a similar mindset and who may be going through—or have gone through—similar experiences as the SLP of a leading entrepreneur. \nIn preparation for Forum Training\, we would like to help set your expectations to ensure you get the maximum value. \nYou might be wondering how this training could possibly consume a full day. We understand that you are busy and getting away for a day is challenging! So please allow us to explain… \nThe training will provide you with the knowledge and techniques necessary to get the maximum benefit out of your Forum – for both your business and personal growth. You will learn the mechanics of how Forum works\, best practices to help you get added value\, and you will actually practice the tools the techniques with your new Forum. You will learn and share with your Forum mates\, and start discussing what you want out of this Forum experience. \nPlease view this day as an investment in your own development\, where you will gain tools that you can utilize in both your personal and professional life – not just in Forum! \nPlease plan to work without technology. There will be small breaks for you to check your phone.

SUMMARY:Unstuck: Tales from the Other Side of the Couch with Britt Frank
DESCRIPTION:Ever wonder about your therapist’s backstory? Most mental health professionals keep a tight lid on that information\, but now you can get an up-close look at one therapist’s harrowing journey out of meth addiction.

As a licensed neuropsychotherapist\, she brings a unique perspective to her own narrative\, offering insights into the power of personal growth. \nThrough a blend of storytelling\, scientific insights\, and practical guidance\, she will empower us to overcome obstacles\, unlock our potential\, and arm us with the mechanisms that keep us trapped in cycles of stagnation. \nBritt’s story will resonate with you on a profound level. Her ability to overcome adversity and forge a path towards success serves as a testament to the indomitable nature of the human spirit. She will invite us to reflect on our own journeys and discover newfound pathways to personal and professional success.
