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.
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.
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.
Join us to learn how parents can support children and adolescents as they face the highly unusual and unpredictable school year ahead. This session will focus on what parents can do to help young people (and themselves!) successfully navigate the disruptions caused by COVID-19.
Psychologists have long studied the protective factors and individual behaviors that help people manage, and even thrive, under chronic stress conditions. Dr. Lisa Damour will draw upon this research to highlight proven strategies that adults can use to make the best of persistently difficult circumstances.
Lisa was just amazing!
