Brandi Lust, SEL Consultant + Speaker

for Brandi Lust, SEL Consultant + Speaker: My experience is that when we give our whole selves to everything we do, whether easy or hard, we are more fulfilled and productive. Disconnection, stress, overeating, burnout and overwhelm are all harmful to us as individuals and our communities. However, mindfulness and improved social-emotional skills can help us fully enter the moment and bring our true selves into it, enriching our lives and communities. I aim to pass on this learning and my lived experience, as a practitioner and person, to organizations seeking to make work and life more meaningful and productive.

Brandi receives overwhelmingly positive reviews as a speaker, teacher and staff developer. Multiple people have described her as authentic, welcoming and convincing. For over three years, Brandi would have workshops at our school building to help us with the tough day to day educational work. Staff members were noticeably happier and more peaceful after these sessions. There was a time she spoke to over three thousand people and gave them practical tips on taking care of themselves, and everything she said was on the real and the point, even today, some said it was transformational. Basically, it is clear Brandi's influence stretches from the AmeriCorps members, volunteer administrators to teachers. One administrator shared that they regularly listed her among the guests they want to invite since getting any sort of feedback from her training' has never been an almost impossible task. Brandi gets it all right.
