Thriving in Your Health: Good Food, Great Medicine

For EO Members, SPs, and Spouses/Life Partners
Friday, January 10, 9:45a - 12p
Kiln
1120 SE Madison St.

Thrive in Your Health (Starts at 11am)

Whether you’re in your 20s, 40s, or 80s—come, wherever you are on the life calendar!

What can we learn about aging well from modern medicine? How about from history? How would a Greek great-grandmother embrace aging and what would her days look like? Does she harvest and chop vegetables? Take care of others? Have a strong sense of purpose?

The earlier you set your sights on graceful aging, the better your later years will be.

Join us for a lively and enlightening talk where we embrace aging while avoiding disability with intention, grace, and purpose.

Join Early for a Pilates Class at 9:45a, or Join for Just the Keynote & Lunch at 11a!

For a limited number of people, we'll start this event at 9:45a with a light pilates class led by EO Ignitor member Jenny Whiteman. Add this ticket when you check out!

Join Tim Bergler, EO Portland Board President, for Breakfast

Looking toward the last half of this EO year, January to June, we'd like to invite you to hear where we are as a chapter, the initiative the board has been working on, and inform where we are headed in the next six months and beyond.

Did you know that member engagement is at a five-year high? How about that in the past six months, we've added three new Strategic Partners to our chapter to help our entrepreneurs? We have much to celebrate!

We also want to know what YOU want to see more of, or even what you never want to see again! Your feedback will help guide our Board's mid-year strategy summit and give your member leaders the chance to shape the final months of their tenure.

Our top goal remains to create a space where everyone feels supported, inspired, and heard. So let's have a great conversation over breakfast together!

The Ideal Life Way: A Systematic Approach to Reconnect with What Matters

For EO Members, Strategic Partners & Spouses/Life Partners
Tuesday, February 4, 12:00p - 2:00p
SKA Wealth Strategies of Raymond James
5 SE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. #600

We all have the opportunity to shape our lives to reflect what matters most. Yet too often, we wait. Or we never get to it. Just as we build visions and apply focused planning to create successful companies, we can bring that same intention to crafting our own fulfilling, meaningful lives.

The Ideal Life Way is a result of years working with entrepreneurs like you, who have achieved tremendous success but reached a point where you want to design your next chapter with clarity and intention. You already have the tools; but still looking for a practical framework to guide the way forward.

In The Ideal Life, you reconnect with what matters most and live in alignment with your values. You approach your choices, actions and relationships with clarity and intention — free from any “shoulds” that no longer serve you. (Keep reading!)
