Some Takeaways – From Nadine:

• Childhood trauma: Folks who are exposed in very high doses, have triple the lifetime risk of heart disease and lung cancer, and a 20-year difference in life expectancy.
• Children are especially sensitive to this repeated stress activation of the fight or flight response, and it goes from being adaptive, or life-saving, to maladaptive, or health-damaging.
• High doses of adversity not only affect brain structure and function, they affect the developing immune system, developing hormonal systems, and even the way our DNA is read and transcribed.
• In the words of Dr. Robert Block, the former President of the American Academy of Pediatrics, “Adverse childhood experiences are the single greatest unaddressed public health threat facing our nation today.”

Some Takeaways – From Emily:

• The data shows that chasing happiness can make people unhappy
• A lack of having meaning in life according to research is a predictor of despair
• Psychologists define happiness as a state of comfort and ease, feeling good in the moment
• Studies show that people who have meaning in their lives are more resilient, they do better at school and at work, and they live longer
• The four pillars of a meaningful life: 1. Belonging: comes from being in relationships where you’re valued for who you are intrinsically and where you value others as well  2. Purpose: Is less about what you want than about what you give, the key to purpose is using your strengths to serve others 3. Transcendence: transcendence states are those rare moments when you’re lifted above the hustle and bustle of daily life, your sense of self fades away, and you feel connected to a higher reality 4. Storytelling: The story you tell yourself about yourself
• Now, finding your purpose is not the same thing as finding that job that
  makes you happy. Purpose is less about what you want than about what you give
