A human-connection advocate on a mission to meet 10,000 strangers for an hour each — 7,400+ people across 90+ countries so far, with stops on The TODAY Show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, and On Air with Ryan Seacrest. He's brought his FRIEND Framework to FOX Sports, KPMG, and SHRM, and he opens our conference with a practical blueprint for building relationships that actually last.

The executive director who guided Temple Israel through the 2026 attack. In an honest, grounded session, Jason speaks to what readiness actually requires, how response unfolds in real time, and how a community finds its way to resilience — hard-earned wisdom none of us hopes to need, and all of us should hear.

Research-grounded and relentlessly practical, Sheri closes the conference with a fresh case for why good boundaries are what make trust, connection, and sustainable community possible in the first place — and how to put them to work the moment you get home.
