Leadership Conversations - Network

The Conversation continues and this is your opportunity to evolve and grow as a leader. Join us for an inspiring morning coffee conversation for evolving beyond stressors at The Portal - Utica. We all feel the stress as leaders—it’s palpable. The pressure, the pace, the constant push to do more. But what if you could break the overwhelm and step into a space of resonance and regulation? Read our White Paper and learn more about us.

In our September Session we held a transparent and real conversation generated from our group: recognition and value! So we will continue this theme along with an expansion of this concept into what you truly desire as a leader in this world.

Join us for a powerful, facilitated conversation inside the ALIGN Network, where we move beyond surface talk and into meaningful connection, nervous system ease, and visionary alignment.

Inside the Network "Conversation" events, we will co-create a new model of leadership—rooted in regulation, driven by calm and groundedness, and sustained by collective wisdom. Join us to break the overwhelm and step into resonant dialogue that fuels transformation for you, your team, and your business.

This is a different form of networking based in the idea that transparent dialogue creates real connection and solutions for your business.

Let's stop surviving and begin building thriving organizations! It begins with you!

Info: **Welcome to Leadership Conversations—**a space where leaders gather to hold space for deeper conversations, the kind that move issues from obstacles to opportunity. This is your time to pause, connect, and explore new ways of leading with clarity, compassion, and empathy. Together, we’ll open up honest dialogue around mental and emotional health in leadership—how stress, burnout, and overwhelm show up, and how we can regulate, restore, and rise stronger. Because when leaders prioritize mental and emotional well-being, they don’t just perform better—they create cultures of trust, resilience, and true connection.
