How to empower ourselves and women we know to succeed in work and life Due to systemic and individual barriers, women may be on a continuous journey to improving their confidence. Confidence can come in many forms – body image, self-esteem, willingness to to step outside our comfort zones – and they all affect one another. Confidence plays a role in whether we dive into challenges or sit them out, whether we negotiate our salaries and whether we stand up against inequity. In this conversation, our speakers will talk about how we can empower ourselves or women we know in finding confidence in ourselves as we work toward professional and personal goals. You’ll leave feeling energized with a better understanding of why confidence can at times be hard and with strategies to inspire us to find ourselves worthy and in turn help others see that they are enough, too.

“Self-love is a state of appreciation for oneself that grows from actions that support our physical, psychological and spiritual growth. Self-love means having a high regard for your own well-being and happiness. Self-love means taking care of your own needs and not sacrificing your well-being to please others.” - Brain & Behavior Research Foundation This session highlights the benefits of learning to love yourself, shares how to stop being a jerk to yourself, explores connections with self-compassion and unconditional self-acceptance, and offers practices for self-love through guided meditation and affirmation.

Angie Chaplin is a leadership expert who found SMART Recovery in 2021. Seeking a way to continue her own recovery from alcohol use disorder while guiding others toward life beyond addiction, she became a certified SMART Recovery meeting facilitator. Grounded in the science of addiction, SMART Recovery's four-point framework aligns with Angie's background in research-based, self-empowered leadership practices. Her online discussion-oriented meetings emphasize SMART's four points and incorporate relevant SMART tips and tools with occasional guest speakers sharing their own recovery stories and strategies. As a leader in long-term recovery, Angie's positive energy and enthusiasm leaves a lasting impact on meeting participants. Her passion has led to recruiting other SMART Recovery meeting facilitators, and she's emerging as a public advocate for life beyond addiction through regular media appearances and speaking engagements. Angie also recently appeared on a local morning television show to tell her recovery story, and how SMART Recovery was a crucial part of her recovery success! https://who13.com/hello-iowa/guest-of-the-day-angie-chaplin/ GO ANGIE!!!!
