In a world of rapid communication and constant noise, we often underestimate one of the most potent tools we possess: our words. This compelling session, led by Dr. Marleece Estella-physician executive, wellness innovator, and creator of the Kindnesscise(TM) movement-explores how language can be used as a therapeutic agent in clinical care, the workplace, and everyday life.
Drawing on neuroscience, clinical research, and real-world leadership experience, Dr. Estella reveals how positive, intentional language influences stress hormones, immune function, emotional regulation, and even cellular healing. Attendees will discover how communication-whether in a medical chart, a team meeting, or a casual conversation-can either harm or heal, inspire or erode trust.
This session bridges evidence-based science with practical application, empowering participants to transform their personal and professional interactions using the healing power of words. Whether you're a clinician, leader, educator, or caregiver, you'll leave with tools to improve outcomes, reduce burnout, and foster environments where people thrive.
