PRESENTATION: The New Unavoidable: Mental Health Through Transition

College often receives high praise such as, “It’s the best four years of your life.” The reality is that may or may not be true for each person. What does ring true for most students is that college is often the greatest time of transition they’ve experienced thus far. What comes with this transition is opportunity, excitement, and growth, but also stress, fear, and responsibility. Greg’s keynote shows how we can capitalize on all transitional times in our life by focusing on our mental wellness. Students will hear his raw personal story, from battling depression, suicidal ideations, and spending a year at a treatment center, to graduating from college and becoming a published author. The takeaways are transformational for students; how to help a friend in need, and how to flourish in transition by prioritizing mental health.

Learning objectives:
- Discover how to be intentional in improving our mental health during times of transition.
- Understand real challenges and statistics on college campuses.

PRESENTATION: Suicide Prevention in a Digital Age

We live in a society that is interwoven with constant digital presence. Apps, devices, social media, news, and instant messaging keep us plugged in like never before. Though the intentions of creating technology were to connect us, they often become a distraction, and quite frankly, a disconnector. As a result, we're seeing loneliness, isolation, depression, and suicide rates increase like never before. Acknowledging that technology is here to stay for the long haul, we must answer the question: How can we use it to support those around us? Greg's presentation will equip students to be empathetic toward people who are experiencing suicidal ideation, explain just how common mental health struggles are, highlight key data among the college demographic, and uncover warning signs. Most importantly, students will learn a conversation tool called QPR in aiding the role of suicide prevention, and discover resources to help our friends, brothers, and sisters who may be suffering in silence.

-Address the pros and cons of technology
-Analyyze key data among the correlation between digital usage and suicide rates

PRESENTATION: Becoming Heard through your Mortar Word

According to one of the world's top researchers on vulnerability, people long for three things at the core: joy, connection, and belonging. What is often aspired for in relationships is the need to be heard by the other person. So, how do we do our part to make it more simple for others to understand us? The key is to dive into the depths of our single greatest desire by uncovering our mortar word. If you had to choose one word that means the most to you out of these, what would it be? Cherished, Known, Admired, Needed, Praised, Giving, Valued. Unlocking what your word, and the discoveries within each, will be an astounding realization to how it plays a role in all aspects of life.

Learning objectives:
- Learn what the Emotional Health Platform consists of.
- Rank your top personal needs from 1-5.
- Understand all 7 mortar words and discover what your personal word is.
- Realize how this single word will play a pivotal role in all aspects of life.
