You are invited to a special, free virtual conversation with Dr. Rick Hanson, psychologist, New York Times bestselling author, speaker, and meditation teacher.
Dr. Hanson is a Senior Fellow at UC Berkeley's Greater Good Science Center and the author of several books, including the beloved Hardwiring Happiness along with Resilient, Just One Thing, and Neurodharma. His books have been translated into 33 languages, with over a million copies sold in English alone. He's the founder of the Global Compassion Coalition and the Wellspring Institute for Neuroscience and Contemplative Wisdom, as well as the co-host of the Being Well podcast. His podcast has been downloaded over 30 million times. He offers free newsletters, and his online programs have scholarships available for those with financial needs. He's shared this work as an invited speaker at Harvard, Stanford, Oxford, Google, and NASA, and his insights have been featured on the BBC, CBS, NPR, and other major media outlets. Yet what makes Dr. Hanson so beloved isn't just his credentials, it's his genuine gift for helping people learn that lasting change is possible, one small, doable step at a time.
Dr. Hanson has spent decades studying something deeply hopeful: our brains are not fixed. Through the science of positive neuroplasticity, he teaches practical, evidence-based ways to grow real inner strength, more calm in the face of stress, more confidence, more compassion, and a steadier sense of peace. These things can be learned even amid life's hardest moments. His teaching blends rigorous neuroscience with warmth, humility, and heart, making it accessible whether you're a mental health professional, a caregiver, or simply someone looking to feel more grounded in your own life.
