Rachel Macy Stafford Speaking Topics
The term ‘work-life balance’ communicates an illusion that we should be able to divide the varied parts of our lives into neat boxes and maintain an even distribution of the time, energy, and focus each requires. But life is not containable; it’s fluid, complex, and unpredictable. That was true before the global pandemic. And now, as the illusive boundaries between work and life have crumbled to non-existence, we are at risk of becoming a population of burned out, busted up humans who feel like the bottom has completely fallen out.
So, what do we do? Rachel Macy Stafford proposes we flatten the box into a piece of cardboard and use it to make a map—a new, healing pathway to navigate this uncharted territory with compassion, presence, and peace… a map with which we can explore pathways that are wide enough for us to travel bravely, as our fully human selves, together.
From surviving to thriving… from competition to community… from unrealistic pressure to inner peace – this is the way.
As we get farther and farther away from childhood, the demands and stresses of life increase. We tend to forget that we have the power to say yes to the delights of our heart and soul. We tend to forget what makes us feel alive and what brings us peace. But in order to live a present, joyful, and fulfilling life, we must remember. We must abandon the pressure to do-it-all; we must surrender the need to please everyone; we must protect our time and energies from those things which deplete and exhaust us. Living ‘love’ as our most authentic and cared for selves can: 1) cultivate inner peace despite societal demands and expectations 2) provide healthy role modeling for our children and loved ones 3) help build a better world.
Every now and then, we lose our way, at times wandering, at times rerouting, at times taking shortcuts – or even long cuts. And sometimes we find ourselves drifting, directionless, perhaps wondering if the path beneath our feet is one worth staying on at all. Rachel Macy Stafford has a gift for bringing us back home to what matters most. With breathtaking vulnerability, she articulates the ache for belonging and peace most of us cannot; her words offer us the communion which we desperately need to receive – if we are to cultivate daily peace and positivity in our stressed-out lives. In this talk, Rachel helps attendees define what gives their lives meaning and gives them tools (and permission!) to establish daily habits that will leave their hands free to grasp what really matters and fulfill their purpose. Learn how to BE (not just DO), unplug to recharge, and establish tech life boundaries. By replenishing our connection-starved souls, we can offer more presence, acceptance, and grace to ourselves and our loved ones.
Today’s young people are facing issues no previous generation has ever faced. But Rachel has a gift for showing us how our homes can be a safe haven even when the world feels scary, disconnected, and divided. The new realities of parenting are challenging, but if we are willing to live a life anchored by truth, presence and connection there is great hope. In this talk, Rachel weaves tools of her trade as a special education teacher with the daily rhythms of life and brings practical strategies straight to the weary hearts of her attendees, leaving them inspired and encouraged.
