In this keynote, Brooke discusses the mounting pressures of growing up as a child actress, correlating the experience to the pressures to be "perfect" in modern society. Between social media, increasing cultural pressures, and family dynamics, students are experienced unprecedented amounts of anxiety and burnout at younger and younger ages. In this keynote students leave feeling seen, heard, and understood. They also leave with practice tools they can use today to improve their overall mood.

In this dynamic workshop, Brooke explores how even as teens, it's important to look at how our holistic wellbeing impacts our emotions and behaviors. In this interactive session, students are able to identify their triggers, where in their bodies they feel their heaviest emotions, and how to articulate some of what they're experiencing so they can move through the challenging states without become overwhelmed by them.

In this keynote, we discuss the challenges of being exposed to stress so we can experience resilience, and being overly stressed and in need of co-regulation. This is a great workshop for educators, school staff, and caregivers to support them in identifying opportunities to be a support person for a struggling teen without removing every single struggle from them.
