SHE Community

We are excited to announce that  Chris Baréz-Brown will be joining the 2025 Social Human Equity (SHE) Conference as a speaker🌍 You don´t want to miss his keynote - THE FIREBREAK - Learn how to use your human design better in this modern world. 💡 Chris is driven by the belief that as humans we’re simply not designed for business.  We spend far too much energy trying to fit in with its needs, rather than the other way around. We’re fish out of water – and it’s sucking the life out of us.  In his Firebreak keynote speech, Chris explores the challenges with our human design and how to make sure that every day counts, all whilst giving your well-being a boost.  Supported by his simple and fun app Talk It Out, this session is proven to upgrade your mental health and banish burnout. A game changer for work and life! Through humour, charisma and expertise, Chris brings out the potential in everybody and people leave not just inspired and energized but thinking a little differently about the world and equipped with tangible skills to deploy their newfound energy on the things that matter most to their work and lives.
