Mental Performance through the Highs and Lows: Sarah McDevitt, Founder & CEO, Core

​About this session: Founders are always selling -- from fundraising, to closing partner deals, to recruiting; we're always painting a pretty picture. Oftentimes, it's quite a bit messier on the inside. This session will normalize the toll that can take, discuss mindset, the behavioral science of forming habits, and mental resilience. Especially in a time where most founders need to respond to changing conditions faster than ever, the goal is that you leave with at least one practical adjustment to keep you at the top of your game for yourself and your company.
