Book Launch - When the Moment Chooses You: From Silence to Strength

Charlene Johnson, RN, MSN

Join us in celebration of Charlene Johnson’s new book When the Moment Chooses You: From Silence to Strength (links to Amazon), a call to action for anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or uncertain about their purpose. During this presentation you are invited on a journey through the defining moments that shape our lives and careers—the moments that call us to step up, speak out, and lead with purpose. As in her book, this talk will explore how adversity, burnout, and uncertainty can be transformed into opportunities for growth and impact. Sharing personal experiences, practical insights, and strategies Charlene will help you recognize when your moment has arrived—and how to seize it with confidence. Whether you are a nurse, a leader, or someone searching for deeper purpose, this session will inspire you to find your voice, rise with courage, and unleash your impact. The moment is waiting—are you ready?

This includes opening the National Magnet Conference, opening for one of Jean Watson’s WCSI events at Stanford and giving the keynote address for The Oncology Nurses Association. Sara’s connection to Nurses is decades long.

Allow the Moment to BE

Jan Anderson, EdD, RN, AHN-BC, Caritas Coach soul-to-soul, and radiate healing energy to all our brothers and sisters.

Join us to explore what it means to “Allow the Moment to BE” on Tuesday, February 4, 2025 from 8-9am PT. This phrase was coined by Eckhart Tolle to refer to not just appreciating teach moment but embracing each moment. Watson shares that the first requirement for living/embodying unitary caring science is to be able to be fully present in the caring moment.

When we are able to allow each moment to be, we experience peace, freedom, love and joy. It is our ability to consciously and intentionally connect to the infinite field of universal love that allows us to find more meaning, purpose and the sacredness in our lives (Watson). Consistent practices that help us to let go of ego, our need for control, our old ways of doing and being, constant comparisons and negative chatter that allow us to find our still-point, the peace underneath all the chatter, to find love, compassion and humility. It is from this foundation of love, compassion and humility that we can contribute to the evolution of life towards hope and peace.

We’ll discuss what allows us to embrace and appreciate each moment, how to practice being in the moment and maybe even as Mary Oliver writes, “what we plan to do with our wild and precious life” (The Summer Day).
