Love is the most powerful force in this universe. We will have a neuroscientist, someone with a non-traditional practice, and a brain aneurysm survivor to examine how L.O.V.E. shapes our thoughts, energy, and ultimately our destiny. Your mind will be blown.
At The Brain Bar Salon, we are used to showcasing stories, show n' tell about what cool things we are doing after brain injury to shine a light on what is possible. In this Brain Bar, we are going to show and make everyone feel what we struggle with day after day to WALK away with more empathy, compassion, understanding, and hope to make the world a better place.
Brain injuries can lead to both broken dreams, and feeling like we have "broken brains." We lose hope, think we are not good enough, never going to be able to do what we used to, and limit ourselves to opportunities all around us.
What if through The Brain Bar Salon, we are able to create a new realm of possibilities around discovering, remapping, and achieving our new selves so that we are able to go out and create a life that is meaningful. We can create new possibilities instead of limiting ourselves to "Broken Brains."
I know we can because I have been navigating my new life on this journey for the past 26 years after my brain aneurysm. I look forward to inviting experts with fresh perspectives for a dialogue that will help transform all of our own possibilities.
This 2024, we are going to surprise you at each of The Brain Bar Salons.
Previously, our guest speakers included Jim Kwik, Celebrity
Brain Coach; Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor, Brain Scientist, NYT Best Seller "My Stroke of Insight," & 7th most viewed TED Talk; Moran Cerf, Hacker turned Neuroscientist; Matthew Zachary, Founder of Stupid Cancer; and many more. We can't wait to reveal our guests for this year and serve YOU a mind-expanding cocktail.

ABOUT US
We believe in showcasing just what can be done using the power of our brain.
The Brain Bar Salon
is a gathering of like-minded individuals celebrating people within our brain community. We share stories and expand perspectives through the power of conversation. Alongside live entertainment, we hear talks on the selected theme and connect with one another for a tasteful evening.
At the end of the night, we all learn something new about our amazing brains.
How the evening unfolds
Gather
People from all across the brain community meet and greet - i.e. Doctors, patients, survivors, caregivers, family, all in one place
share
Each month has a theme "xxx and the Brain" and there will be 3 guest speakers sharing what they are up to right now and how it relates to the theme.
q&a
As the "salon" format
goes, in between each guest we open it up for questions because 10 minutes isn't enough and others will be intrigued by the share.
open discussion
This is where the magic happens. We open up the floor for everyone to have the best ideas and most important conversations that come from these shares.
What attendees say...
We look forward to having you at The Brain Bar and helping you create your own possibility.
