Connections Spotlight 

A Virtual Community Experience 

“Finding My Strength; Hope in Connection,” is the theme of the 2021 Annual Conference from Aug. 18 through Sept. 8 presented by the Coconino Coalition for Children & Youth.

Deanna Singh, author, TEDx talk Speaker, Justice and Equality Advocate, will launch the conference with her presentation “Hustle with Purpose” from 9 to 10 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 18 MST/AZ. You will be guided through how to use your talents, skills and resource to create a greater impact in your work and life. This session will help you deconstruct your real and perceived challenges. It will also give you the opportunity to reflect on your personal leadership skills while guiding you through the techniques you need to thrive. There is a particular emphasis placed on the core leadership competencies of purpose, initiative, curiosity, resilience and courage.

Sandra Solano, MD, MS, a Public Health Professional and HeartMath Master Trainer, will lead the day two session with her presentation “From a Smart Brain to a Wise Heart — A Scientist’s Journey” from 9 to 10 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 25. Dr. Solano’s journey into the power of the heart was personal and rooted in skepticism. Through her story as a trauma survivor and a scientist / physician, Dr. Solano will take us on a journey to discover the science behind the heart-brain connection, the power of coherence and the ability to reprogram our nervous system to increase our personal, group and global resilience. In this journey, Dr. Solano will guide us through the practice of coherence and how to integrate it in our daily lives. Dr Solano will discuss the Global Coherence Initiative and how HeartMath© tools are being used in the areas of trauma, emotional health and recovery.
