Every January, millions of people decide it’s time for a fresh start. But what is it about the turning of a calendar that makes us feel so motivated?
Join us for a fun, hands-on evening exploring the science of goal setting, optimism, and behavior change, and how each can support emotional well-being and better mental health. We’ll dig into why “fresh start” moments feel so powerful, what helps new habits stick, and how looking toward the future can strengthen resilience and purpose.
Along the way, you’ll create a vision board to take home, swap ideas with new friends, and enjoy time for refreshments, socializing, and group discussion. Come curious, bring your big dreams, and leave feeling inspired about the year ahead.
And yes, there will be snacks to fuel all those big dreams!
