Peace exists in layers. Personal peace matters, but social peace matters too. A person can sit in a quiet room and still feel anxious if they feel alone, judged, or unheard. At the same time, even difficult situations can feel manageable when there is support, compassion, and connection. The same setting can produce comfort for one person and unease for another.

Come hear the inspiring stories of everyday people as they share what they learned when their sense of peace was unexpectedly disrupted. Through their challenges, reflections, and growth, you’ll discover insights that may resonate with your own journey. What wisdom can be gained from the experiences of others as we all seek to find—and maintain—that sometimes elusive sense of peace?
