Lisa Damour Speaking Topics

Speaking While Female

Women hear a lot of advice about how to talk, but not all of it fits with what the research shows about effective communication. Dr. Damour addresses popular misconceptions about how women speak and shares her path-breaking work on how both women and men can develop effective strategies for advancing their ideas, managing conflict, and saying “no” without harming their relationships.

The Science of Well-Being

Psychologists have long studied the question “What makes people happy?” and the answer isn’t what people usually expect. Wealth and accolades matter far less than good health, strong relationships, and having a sense of purpose. Dr. Damour translates psychological science into the concrete steps that help people feel good while doing well.

Taking Control of Stress and Anxiety

Dr. Damour explains the science showing that stress and anxiety are unavoidable and actually necessary aspects of daily life: stress happens when we are adapting to new challenges and anxiety alerts us to pay attention or make a change. Dr. Damour’s groundbreaking approach empowers people to embrace healthy doses of stress and anxiety and learn how to keep pressure and tension from reaching unhealthy levels.
