Six Speakers. 12 minutes each.<\/p>\n

Welcome to BrainTease, a creative, engaging space for the exchange of ideas among a diverse group of people.

You\u2019ll leave with an expanded mind, a full heart, and lots to discuss.<\/p>\n

Brain Tease is an outreach of The Gracious Mind, and is designed to give critical thinkers a space for dialogue, personal growth, and face-to-face networking. Each of our presenters are leaders, thinkers, innovators, and game changers in their respective fields, and they\u2019ll be onhand after the event for questions, conversations, and to tell you more about their work. We\u2019re bringing together a group of talented people who, in other circumstances, might not cross paths, and asking them to engage you in a compelling conversation about topics that are relevant in today\u2019s world.<\/p>\n

Imagine hearing six different speakers sharing their expertise in enjoyable, yet challenging, discourse every month. If you value progressive thought, seek greater understanding of the self and others, and crave intellectual exchange, BrainTease has a home for you.
