11:30 AM Masterclass: Cultivating Confidence Amid Disruption

Deep Dive. Practical Tools. Real Results.

In times of uncertainty, confidence is often the first casualty. In this empowering, interactive masterclass, author and life sciences leader Stephanie Joong guides participants through the process of recognizing self-limiting narratives, restoring authentic self-worth, and transforming professional setbacks into sources of strength. Drawing on over 15 years of experience in the life sciences industry—and her work amplifying underrepresented voices—Stephanie helps attendees reconnect with their inner resilience, rewrite their stories, and step forward with clarity and confidence. After completion of this workshop, attendees will be able to:

• Recognize outdated narratives that contribute to self-doubt and hold you back during times of disruption

• Restore self-worth and reconnect with your true sense of self, rather than living by others’ expectations.

• Build resilience by rewriting your story—transforming setbacks into lessons that help you rise stronger and more confident.
