The Mindful U: Finding Calm, Clarity + Connection in a Chaotic World With Jessica Sanam Hekmat
Thursday, Sept. 30, 2025 | Noon PT
Virtual via Zoom
Hosted by the UCLA Alumni Association, open to all UC alumni
This interactive session, led by career coach Jessica Sanam Hekmat, invites participants to pause and reset to cultivate presence and self-awareness as they navigate professional and personal demands. We’ll explore practical mindfulness tools and reflective prompts designed to foster resilience, regulate stress and re-energize focus. The conversation will balance strategy and self-inquiry, and we’ll ground ourselves together in real time through guided breathwork, reflection, and visualization. Participants will leave with practical ways to reconnect to their values and sense of purpose, even when the external environment feels unpredictable.
