About This Event
Lunch & Learn: What if Happiness were the Strategy?
What if happiness wasn't something you stumbled upon after checking all the boxes, but the very strategy you built your life around?
In this powerful and perspective-shifting talk, Ayerim Maduro invites women in leadership to rethink success through a more intentional lens, one where how your life feels matters just as much as what you've built.
Through a grounded and particle shift in perspective, you'll learn how to make joy the lens through which you lead, decide, and design your life, so your energy is protected, your choices feel aligned, and the life you're building reflects not just your success, but your joy.
Tuesday, May 5, 2026, 11:45 am to 1:15 pm
Admission: $15 for Chamber members; $20 for non-members.
A light lunch and beverages will be available.
Location: Senate Garage, 4 North Front Street, Kingston, New York
Catering by Shale Hill Hospitality Group
Sponsored by Central Hudson and HAMAK Hospitality Solutions
