Lessons From Lois

“Hangin’ on with humor and learning to laugh in the 
midst of trying times rescued me from the distress 
and despair of adjusting to a sudden life change 
caused by a brain injury and initiated my recovery.”
 
                                                              
 – Lois McElravy

No one is immune from …

  • the pressures and demands of work and home
  • the unpredictable swift pace of life
  • the chance that their life could suddenly change
  • dealing with difficult people, or
  • turning “dead serious.”

When unexpected trouble strikes,
it doesn’t matter …

  • how knowledgeable you are in your chosen profession
  • the educational degrees you have earned, nor
  • the experience you have acquired. 

None of these things matter if you lack the ability …

to quickly calm down your nervous system 
and gain control of your emotions —
so you can think clearly, problem solve, 
make good decisions and do your best job.

“When life knocks you down,   
humor is the magic wand     
that cushions your fall,    
lifts you back up and    
points you in a new direction. 

“Laughter is your pressure relief valve.”

Meet Louis

“Lois/Louis offers a dynamic presentation that provokes the audience to open both mind and heart. Through their story our leadership was refreshed to the potential of success from failure, of the effort that perseverance takes, of the demand and risk of appearing foolish, and of the myriad of professional and personal masks we offer each other and so readily take up ourselves. Lois and Louis share a slice of their journey and in such a lesson of the journey that we are all on in our relationships with our customers, colleagues, families and communities.”
