Boost Your Motivation, Productivity, and Emotional Well-being with AI
1hr
When our to-do list feels endless or stress takes over, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by our emotions. We might find ourselves spending hours but barely making progress, or procrastinating until the last minute—not because we’re lazy, but because our brains are reacting to the pressure. In this session, we’ll explore science-based practices and how AI can help us better understand and break free from these negative loops. By tuning into what’s really going on inside, we can get more done, feel more motivated, and find a little more happiness along the way.

"Because the Product Owner Said So" (And Other UX Fairy Tales)
Ever feel like your design dreams are crushed by practicality? In this session, we’ll tackle the common plight of designers compromising their vision because “the PO said so” (often code for “the developers are giving me puppy eyes”). We’ll explore: * Communicating design ideas so compellingly even your cat would approve * Winning the hearts and minds of your devs and POs * Keeping your creative spark alive in a world where “dream big” means “slightly larger than a sticky note” Join us to learn how to navigate team collaboration without sacrificing your UX ideals (or sanity). Sense of humor required, magic wand optional!
