After a morning centered around finding, creating, and living the  dream in logistics, Stressie will close the Women in Breakbulk Breakfast with an interactive wellness experience designed to help attendees turn the conversation inward.

Because sometimes finding the dream role starts with giving ourselves enough space to ask: What do I actually want?

Through guided movement, breath, creative reflection and connection, attendees will explore what they want more of in their careers, their lives and the industry they are helping shape.

Each guest will receive a paper reflection mat at their seat where they can write, draw, doodle and dream throughout the experience. The session culminates with each woman adding one intention to the collaborative Women in Breakbulk Dream Wall, creating a visual representation of where the women of the industry want to go next.
