An insightful and vulnerable session on mental health recovery. Using Sierra’s mental health recovery story, this presentation explores the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration’s (SAMHSA) working definition of recovery, emphasizing the key dimensions of Health, Home, Purpose, and Community.

Questify Your Life: Gamification and Positive Psychology for Enjoyable Self-Improvement

In this fun and interactive session, Sierra blends evidence-based techniques with gamification to bring a sense of adventure, accomplishment, and play to everyday life. The presentation introduces the foundations of gamification and positive psychology and demonstrates how they can be used to create a flexible, personalized “Questify Your Life” system. The tone is playful, courageous, and inspirational.

 

Participants learn Sierra’s three-step process for quest creation: mapping the journey, establishing the character, and designing fulfilling quests. She shares real-world examples from her own life and invites the audience to try quests of their own.

She shared her personal story, defined neurodiversity and related terms, shared impactful data about neurodivergent individuals and the law field and gave resources for further learning. In Addition, we hired her to help us plan the seminar content, both her speech and the following panel she was a panelist on because of her expertise. She was incredibly communicative and responsive in the planning process and delivered big during her engaging speech. Many guests from the event reached out to tell us they enjoyed the subject material and some even reached to say they are now planning their own CLE about neurodiversity and would like to work with her.” Event Organizer and Attendee, Annual Justice Alan Page Elimination of Bias CLE Seminar
