Virtual Meeting - Oh, That's Why I Do That! Understanding the Neuroscience Behind Our Best (and Worst) Behavior
2024-08-21 12:00 - 13:00 | https://wewnational.com/event/virtual-meeting-8-21-2024/
GUEST SPEAKER: Ali Carson
TOPIC: Oh, That’s Why I Do That! Understanding the Neuroscience Behind Our Best (and Worst) Behavior
WHEN: Wednesday, August 21, 2024 – 12:00PM-1:00PM CST
Hosted By: Michell Stockmann
Have you ever had a moment where something happens and, before you’re even really aware, you react – and then are left thinking “Why did I do that?” Our brains are fascinating machines. There is a miniscule space of time between when something happens and when we respond to it – .2 seconds to be exact. That’s not very much time! The good news is that if we become more aware of the things that trigger reactions for us, and why they trigger us, we can re-wire our brains to more productive reactions.
This program will introduce participants to the SCARF model – an easy framework that helps you remember the five key domains that influence our behavior in social situations. Through group discussion and presentation, we will dive into typical responses to workplace events and learn how to recognize when our behaviors are causing a positive or negative response in others. Then we’ll take that a step further and develop an action plan for anticipating reactions in ourselves and others, then identifying specific strategies to mitigate potential negative consequences.
By the end of this program, participants will:
• Learn a framework (SCARF) to remember the five key domains that influence behavior in social situations.
• Identify their personal stressors and triggers.
• Develop an action plan for anticipating and mitigating reactions

O'Fallon Chapter Meeting - Skincare Myths Busted
2024-08-26 11:30 - 13:00 | Bella Milano O’Fallon, 455 Regency Park, O'Fallon, IL, 62269, United States
Speaker: Angie Springer
Topic: Skincare Myths Busted
Where: Bella Milano – 455 Regency Park O’Fallon, IL 62269
Monday, August 26, 2024 – 11:30AM-1:00PM CST
My life mission is to spread H.O.P.E. by Helping Others Propel to Excellence personally, professionally, and passionately. Since 2011, my vehicle to live out this mission has been skincare and cosmetics. I believe that when a woman will share her face with you, she will also share her heart. I have been in leadership with Mary Kay for 13 years where I not only educate and inform on products, ingredients, application, and self care but I train, coach, and mentor women to live their best lives while providing choices. I watch women gain confidence from the outside in by using the products and from the inside out by investing time in their personal development journey.
I came to Mary Kay following successful engineering and real estate careers that served our family well in different seasons of life. Those experiences prepared me for the grit, tenacity, and persistence it takes to be a self-employed leader in the direct selling industry. Every struggle and success during previous seasons shape us into the current better version of ourselves. I have learned to surrender things that are out of my control, control the controllables, and effectively lead those who have been divinely assigned to me with faith, empathy, and authenticity.
I am a wife, mom of 2 daughters, avid reader, nature and water lover, soccer enthusiast, bleacher mom, and foster dog mom
Presentation Takeaways:
1. Understand the value of protecting our body’s largest organ
2. Learn ways to defend against our environment, delay the signs of aging, and deliver real results
3. Bust the most common myths surrounding skincare Contact this Speaker Directly:

Cheyenne Tipton is the Client Relations Manager for Lifetime Media – a 20x Telly Award winning video production company based out of Creve Coeur. Serving clients nationwide, as well as internationally. Cheyenne oversees the outside sales department, serves as the liaison between client and crew, and everything in between.
During Cheyenne’s 10+ years in the industry, she experimented with many different types of sales. Door to door knocking, hundreds of cold calls a day, thousands of automated emails a day, expensive client entertaining, social selling, the list goes on and on. You name the method, she’s tried it. In her constant pursuit for the most effective approach, Cheyenne realized the best thing she could do was simply connect with people. Human to human.
In this presentation, you will learn how selling has evolved over the years, best practices, and how video can help you connect more, sell more, and drive action toward your goals.

WHERE: Bella Milano – 1063 S State Rte 157 Edwardsville, IL
WHEN: Thursday, October 10, 2024 – 11:30AM-1:00PM CST
Don’t we all feel the push/pull of conflict and miscommunication? I personally don’t like it, but I also know it seems to happen even when I’m working hard to avoid it. This is why Jenn Whitmer is here with us today.
Jenn, a self-proclaimed recovering conflict-avoider, has 20+ years of experience leading groups from classrooms and schools to volunteer groups and — hardest of all — herself.
She holds graduate certificates in music education, theology, and leadership along with a Master of Arts in communication and culture from Webster University, extended training in conflict resolution, and certification as an Enneagram coach. She asks big questions that lead to wild dreams and connected ideas and joyful flourish.
We are constantly communicating. Literally all the time. And we are constantly making meaning. Our brains are hard-wired for it.
And yet how many times this week did miscommunication happen? And how much time and angst did it cost?
But communication is more than making sounds into words. Using researched-backs skills, you will learn the power of CLEAN communication served with clear steps, implementation practices, and a side of laughter.
Presentation takeaways:
Describe the cost of miscommunication with qualitative and quantitative data.
Identify the process and purpose of communication (and no, it’s not just sharing information).
Determine the five steps to stop miscommunication before it starts. Keep it CLEAN.
Clarify what steps to take when miscommunication occurs.
Jenn Whitmer helps leaders with Joyosity, creating positive and profitable culture with complex teams. As an international keynote and TEDx speaker and Enneagram specialist, Jenn helps organizations retain employees, increase efficiency, solve conflict, and cultivate communication so that work is a joy, people are whole, and organizations flourish. (Usually, that means a lot of laughter!)
Jenn holds graduate certificates in music education, theology, and leadership, along with a Master of Arts in communication and culture from Webster University and certification as an Enneagram coach. While not-at-all-secretly wanting her life to just be a musical, Jenn lives in St. Louis, Missouri, with her husband, Michael, their four kids, and a surly cat that puts up with them all.
As a speaker, consultant, and Joyosity podcast host, Jenn has stood in front of thousands of people, helping them develop the skills to improve their teams. And she’s ready to help you restore the joy of work, creating a healthy workplace culture that is people-first and purpose-driven.

What is an S.O.S. Circle?
An S.O.S. Circle is more than just a meeting—it’s a transformative experience where women come together to uplift and empower each other. Through the shared experiences of triumphs and tribulations, attendees forge deep connections, dispel feelings of isolation, and emerge stronger, more resilient, and united in their journey towards personal and professional fulfillment.
The acronym S.O.S. stands for “Share Our Successes” or “Share Our Struggles” and embodies the core purpose of the circle: to provide a platform for women to openly discuss both their triumphs and their challenges, knowing they are among understanding peers.
In a guided open forum setting, participants are invited to bravely share their struggles and successes, knowing that they are among a community of women who understand and empathize.
For many women, celebrating successes can be challenging due to societal expectations and fear of being perceived as boastful. Likewise, sharing struggles may feel daunting as it requires vulnerability and the fear of judgment.
The S.O.S. Circle offers a safe space for women to bravely share their struggles and vulnerabilities, recognizing that doing so is not a sign of weakness but of strength and resilience. Within this circle of trust, women find compassionate ears, supportive shoulders, and invaluable guidance from those who have walked similar paths.
All chapter meetings are FREE for anyone to attend. YES! You read that right.

West County Chapter Meeting - Conflict Resolution: Finding zen at home and at the Office
2024-10-17 11:30 - 13:00 | Il Bel Lago, 11631 Olive Blvd., St. Louis, MO, 63141
GUEST SPEAKER: Leslie Tolliver, JD, SHRM-CP
TOPIC: Conflict Resolution: Finding Zen at Home and at the Office
WHERE: ll Bel Lago – 11631 Olive Blvd. St. Louis, MO 63141
WHEN: Thursday, October 17, 2024 – 11:30AM-1:00PM CST
HR Whisperer: HR Director by day and I moonlight as an HR consultant by night, unravelling the mysteries of the corporate world one employee issue at a time. If you have workplace drama, I’ll sift through it like a detective solving a juicy mystery novel.
Recovering Attorney: In my past life, I proudly bore the title of attorney, battling it out in courtrooms and boardrooms. But I’ve seen the light! I’ve transitioned to a new, exciting phase in my life. Now, I help others navigate the legal landscape, steering them clear of the pitfalls and landmines I once braved. Consider me your legal guide through the treacherous terrain, having survived the trenches and emerged wiser and, dare I say, with a slightly more humorous outlook on life.
Mom of Four: But wait, there’s more! In my superhero cape (or, more accurately, my “Mom jeans”), I wrangle not one, not two, but four mini-humans who insist on calling me “Mom”. They’ve taught me more about negotiation and diplomacy than any law school ever could. Globetrotting Foodie: When I’m not arguing cases or parenting, I’m jet-setting around the globe in search of the world’s most delectable delicacies. My passport might as well be a food journal with stamps, and my heart belongs to every street food vendor, Michelin-starred restaurant, and hole-in-the-wall eatery.
Proudly Neurodivergent: Beneath it all, I’m a neurodivergent warrior. My brain works in wonderfully unique ways, and I embrace it with open arms. Think of me as the Picasso of thinking, with a canvas of brilliant ideas that might zigzag, swirl, or loop-de-loop – but always with a dash of brilliance. So basically, in my multifaceted world, I’m a legal luminary turned legal guide, an HR sorcerer, a mom to a formidable quartet, a global epicurean explorer, a neurodivergent pioneer, and a
recovering attorney with tales to tell and wisdom to share!

Are you ready to make meaningful connections that go beyond surface-level conversations? Empower Hour is your opportunity to network with purpose, spark collaboration, and engage in discussions that will inspire, motivate, and empower you as we close out the year strong!
During this dynamic, members-only networking event, you’ll join small, rotating groups to dive into powerful, thought-provoking conversations that go deeper than the usual business chit-chat. We’ll explore:

What’s one major project or goal you’re working on right now that excites you?

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve received this year, and how has it shaped your approach?

How do you define success for yourself right now?

What’s one professional risk you’ve taken recently, and what did you learn from it?

What challenge are you facing that you’d love fresh perspectives on?

And more!

This isn’t just about networking—it’s about building authentic relationships with other ambitious women who are just as passionate about growth, collaboration, and success as you are. Come ready to share your insights, offer support, and walk away with new ideas, connections, and inspiration.

Why You Should Join:

Engage in deep, purposeful conversations with like-minded women.

Gain fresh perspectives and actionable advice for your personal and professional goals.

Form lasting connections that will continue to inspire and support you long after the event.

Leave with renewed motivation to tackle the final stretch of the year!

Let’s turn networking into a powerful tool for growth and empowerment—together!
