Spotlight Series

Your student leaders can be a part of the Spotlight Series. In this student-led Series, they will have the opportunity to share a three-minute presentation on a wellbeing initiative they are actioning in their own school. If you would like your student leaders to be a part of this segment, please express your interest via this short form.

One former student described the experience:

“It was led by students .... it’s a lot easier to connect with people who are my age and are going through very similar experiences right now than people who are, let’s say, 20 years older than me.”

Alex Moffat

Alex is a neuroleadership practitioner and award-winning magician who helps audience members unlock, reframe, and conquer by unpacking how our thinking shapes the way we understand others. Through a blend of neuroscience and illusion, he will challenge assumptions and reveal how shifting perspective can influence interactions and strengthen the way we relate to those around us.

James Castrission

James will share how his adventure work alongside his expedition partner in extreme, high pressure environments brings empathy to life. His story will demonstrate how trust, vulnerability, and a deep understanding of others enable teams to navigate challenge and rely on one another when it matters most.
