Despite our best-laid plans, life has a way of throwing things off kilter. When these disruptions happen, a willingness to cultivate compassion for ourselves and others can help us live with more ease.

​Join Katie Huey, Founder of Messy Work, for a fireside chat with Kate Westlund Tovsen, Founder of The Society of Working Moms, to explore an invitation to honor even the hardest parts of life with compassion in our personal and professional lives.

​She will share a bit about her own grief story, talk about how to build compassionate workplaces, and answer questions about how we can better equip ourselves to navigate the things life throws at us.
