Welcome & Opening Keynote - Dr. Miriam Kirmayer: Bridge the Connection Divide

Headshot of Dr. Miriam Kirmayer

Feeling connected — to our friends, our colleagues, and our communities — is one of the most powerful predictors of our health, happiness, and success. 

Even though we are hard-wired for connection, so much can get in the way of strong, healthy relationships: distance, technology, the busyness of life, and, most of all, the misconceptions we have about what it takes to build authentic friendships and connections. 

In her thought-provoking signature keynote, Dr. Miriam unpacks the science of friendship and connection to help people build relationships that can inform and transform their lives.  

Discover the key practices, skills, and mindset shifts that improve connectivity, reduce feelings of loneliness, fortify our personal and collective well-being, and bridge the connection divide. 

Through sharing her professional insights and personal experiences, Dr. Miriam helps us to re-calibrate the way we think about, prioritize, and invest in creating the friendships and connections that count, and ultimately add up to a full and fulfilling life.
