TABLE. 12: Prototyping the Pivot: Using Life Design to Navigate Life's Transitions

Monday June 15, 2026 3:30pm - 5:30pm EDT

Sand Key Ballroom (Belleaire/Redington)

Participants will discuss high-level strategies for reframing re-entry challenges and prototyping flexible pathways that harmonize professional ambition with personal priorities.
