When we are self-aware we feel more grounded, confident, efficient, and better able to care for ourselves and others. In this important keynote, award-winning leadership trainer Tovi Scruggs-Hussein teaches on the intersectionality of healing and self-care through the power of mindfulness. From her lived experience, Tovi strives to inspire us to cultivate greater awareness and resilience in ourselves and those we serve so hopefully, we do not operate on autopilot and perpetuate conditions that we need to continue to heal from.

Tovi will also highlight immediate tangible actions designed to cultivate wellness and resilience that result in more inclusive schools, workplaces, and communities. She seeks to anchor us in the power of collective healing after this past year of some of the most shared traumatic events we may ever witness in our lifetime.

Educator Tovi Scruggs-Hussein has been personally trained by Brene Bown as a Certified to “Dare to Lead” Facilitator and is the National President for Coalition for Schools Educating Mindfully. Her work focuses on trauma-responsive resilience, and self-care/wellness. Scruggs-Hussein is the author of Be a Parent Champion: A Guide to Becoming a Partner with Your Child’s School and Stories of Racial Healing: A Useful Tool in How Autobiographies Can Heal us in Work and in Life.
