Our event will begin promptly at Noon. \nJoin us and Connect with Exceptional Colleagues\nWe are excited Tina Tesch-Myers will be our September Spotlight speaker\n \nBorn in Australia to German immigrants\, Tina grew up with a deep love for nature and a big\, blended family – her twin brother Andreas\, older brother Michael\, and half-sister Claudia in Berlin. Her first calling was as a chef\, which took her across Europe and into studies in Switzerland. That journey led her to Africa for two unforgettable years. \nEventually\, Tina returned home and found peace (and passion) in Tasmania\, spending 11 years as a woodworker. But her love of human movement and healing drew her to Boulder\, Colorado\, where she trained as a Rolfer\, then later moved to Seattle to be close to the sea—her second home. \nThe biggest joy of her life? Adopting her son Joaquin from Guatemala. At just 18 months\, he chose Jeff\, her amazing husband\, to join their family—and it was the best decision he ever made. \nFor nearly three decades\, Tina has helped people feel better in their bodies—through Rolfing\, nutrition\, and now through MOVE ME\, a new adventure to clean up our oceans\, one powerful habit change at a time. \nIn her upcoming 20-minute talk\, Tina will delve into the topic of: “Cleaning the Oceans Without Leaving Home.” \nYou don’t have to live near the Beach to clean the Oceans. Just clean your habits. Every time you refill a bottle\, refuse a plastic straw\, or choose a bar of soap over a plastic one\, you are actively reducing Ocean Waste. Home is the new Frontier. \nTina will be giving you simple changes that will only take 10 minutes a day to create a Massive change… Small changes in our daily habits create long lasting effects on our health and this magnificent Planet … for future Generations. \nTakeaways from this talk:\n\nWhere Move Me started\nWhere Plastic hides in the Kitchen\nWhere small daily changes in our daily habits can change\nSolutions to replace PLASTIC HABITS\nJoin Learn Share is all about MOVE ME\n\n\nTo learn more\, go to: https://move-me.org \n\nRegister Here!\n\n\n \nWhy Attend an Exceptional Connections® Networking Event?\n\nJoin us in making exceptional connections\, building relationships that lead to new friendships\, endless referrals\, and powerful advocates!\nConnect with like-minded Entrepreneurs in a Fun In-Person & Virtual Environments.\nDynamic & Inspiring 20-minute Spotlight speakers\nExceptional Insight presentation offered by a member of our EC Community\nLearn 6 Steps to Exceptional Connecting & Networking Nuggets\nAll Attendees will offer a 45-second Elevator Commercial.

SUMMARY:Exceptional Connections® April Networking Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Register Here!\nImagine a world where people naturally contribute to each other\, knowing that when we are in service to others\, we transform lives. \nWe have a full schedule planned so please plan to arrive by 11:30am to network and enjoy a delicious Luncheon. Our event will begin promptly at Noon. \nJoin us and Connect with Exceptional Colleagues\nWe are honored Melina Palmer will be our April Spotlight speaker\n \nMelina Palmer is CEO of The Brainy Business\, which helps companies around the world apply behavioral economics so customers buy and employees buy in. She has written three bestselling books and hosts The Brainy Business podcast\, which has more than 1 million downloads in over 170 countries. A consultant and keynote speaker\, she also teaches applied behavioral economics via the Texas A&M Human Behavior Lab. She and her work have been featured in many outlets\, including Inc and Psychology Today. \n  \nIn her 20-minute talk Melina will share:  Change Is Hard: But Does It Have To Be? \n  \nDid you know the average person makes 35\,000 decisions a day? This is only possible because the brain uses rules to streamline the process. Change breaks those rules\, often resulting in friction\, fear\, and freezing. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Imagine how much smoother projects and team dynamics could be if you understood the rules each brain used to make those decisions (and could work with them instead of with what you think “should” work). In this session based on groundbreaking insights from her book\, What Your Employees Need and Can’t Tell You\, applied behavioral economist Melina Palmer shares insights from brain science to help everyone increase their influence and make it so anyone they work with can be naturally better at change. \nTakeaways:\n\nAn introduction to how the brain really works when faced with change\nInsights into key biases and concepts the subconscious brain uses to make decisions\nSome key tweaks anyone can make so others will be more likely to be receptive to their ideas and change initiatives\n\n\nTo learn more\, go to: https://www.thebrainybusiness.com \n\nRegister Here!\n\n\n \nWhy Attend an Exceptional Connections® Networking Event?\n\nJoin us in making exceptional connections®\, building relationships that lead to new friendships\, endless referrals\, and powerful advocates!\nMeet\, Mingle and Connect with like-minded Entrepreneurs in a Fun & Festive Environment\nDynamic & Inspiring 20-minute Spotlight speakers\nExceptional Insight presentation offered by a member of our Community\nLearn 6 Steps to Exceptional Connecting & Networking Nuggets at each event\nWe offer our Marketplace Spotlight Vendors added visibility of 90-seconds to show & tell what your business has to offer\, plus the added bonus of sharing 1-screenshot to promote your business and products All * * * * *Attendees will offer a 45-second Elevator Commercial.
