Cultivate Transitional Intelligence

Join vitality expert and mindfulness teacher Lori Schwanbeck as she explores what happens when successful people find themselves going through the motions – delivering on everything expected of them while feeling disconnected from their aliveness.

Lori, who teaches mindfulness-based emotional intelligence globally, reveals why so many of us feel depleted despite our accomplishments—and what it takes for us to reconnect with genuine energy, purpose, and joy.

From weaving nature’s intelligence into everyday life to shifting from managing your body to celebrating it, this conversation is for anyone who’s ready to break the pattern and feel more alive. 

That spark you remember is still there.

Break free from technology’s grip and create a healthier digital life. Join psychologist Dr. Thekla Brumder Ross and coach and former tech insider Kit Hayes, co-authors of It Won’t Love You Back, for an interactive session that combines brain science with practical wisdom.

In this live conversation, you’ll:

• Clarify your values around technology use
• Understand the neuroscience behind digital habits
• Practice techniques to reset your relationship with screens
• Join the live Q&A with two leading experts in digital wellness

This isn’t about going tech-free, it’s about using technology with more intention, clarity, and freedom so you can reclaim what matters most.

In this deeply moving live chat, trauma therapist and grief educator Meghan Jarvis joins MEA’s Mary Hofstedt to explore how we can navigate life’s most disorienting losses – not by “getting over” them, but by learning to carry them with greater steadiness and self-trust.

Meghan will share with us why traditional talk therapy often falls short when it comes to grief, and how her groundbreaking method helps people process loss through the wisdom of the body. She’ll share why grief deserves daily care, how to calm a nervous system thrown off course by loss, and practical tools for moving forward when everything feels raw and uncertain.

Whether you (or someone you love) are grieving a loved one, relationship, role, or sense of identity, Meghan offers a compassionate roadmap for finding your footing again – one grounded step at a time.

Join us for an intimate talk with wellness pioneers Jeff Krasno and Schuyler Grant, the duo behind Wanderlust festivals and Commune, an online learning platform offering courses and conversations with leading voices in health, personal growth, and social impact, as we explore evidence-based approaches to metabolic health, movement, and vitality in midlife and beyond.

Hosted by MEA’s Derek Gehl, this live conversation offers a unique opportunity to learn from this power couple whose practical methods have helped thousands reclaim their energy and transform their relationship with aging.

You’ll learn practical, science-backed ways to build sustainable wellness habits, boost resilience with thermal therapy and breathwork, improve sleep and energy, and create movement that fuels rather than drains you.

This is your opportunity to create a wellness blueprint that grows with you over time
