10:00am "Healthy Eating As We Age: A Jewish Perspective"
LeeAnn Weintraub, MPH, RD
The daily habits that make up our lifestyle have an enormous impact on health and wellness. Culture, religion and relationships are some of the factors that shape these habits. During this session, participants will learn the best foods to incorporate into their daily routine to promote healthy aging. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and learn how to make their own recipes more nutritious while maintaining flavor.

11:15am "A woman playing in a man’s world: How a female lawyer gets professional athletes to play by her rules"
Kyra Buch, Lawyer
Kyra will discuss her experience defending workers compensation claims filed by former athletes for traumatic brain injuries. This includes the legal and factual considerations impacting her defense, such as that a player last played decades ago and the athlete “assumed the risk.” Kyra will address sexual harassment training for professional sports teams and their athletes. She will talk about what it is like to be the (most often) only woman in a male-dominated world, but also the person providing the instructions and/or expertise.
