Health Care & Home Care

Time: 4:40 pm

Aging brings big changes—retirement, shifting roles, health challenges, and losing loved ones. These transitions can feel overwhelming, but they don’t have to define us. Resilience and emotional intelligence (EQ) can help seniors, caregivers, and professionals navigate life’s changes with confidence, connection, and purpose.

This session, led by Dr. Arielle Jordan, a trauma therapist and resilience expert, will provide practical strategies to manage stress, grief, and uncertainty. We’ll explore how emotional intelligence helps with decision-making, relationships, and well-being—and how simple mindset shifts can turn life’s challenges into opportunities for growth.

Attendees will walk away with real-world tools to help themselves and the seniors they support handle transitions with strength and resilience.

Learning Objectives:

1. Understand how emotional intelligence can help seniors and caregivers manage stress, improve relationships, and make confident decisions.
2. Learn practical tools for handling grief, stress, and major life transitions through mindset shifts, self-care strategies, and emotional awareness.
3. Gain actionable strategies to prevent caregiver burnout while supporting seniors with compassion and resilience.
