At the 2025 Tri-County SHRM Annual Conference held April 4 at Alico Arena, transformational leadership consultant, author and wellness advocate Christin Collins delivered an inspiring and actionable keynote, guiding HR professionals to reconnect with themselves amid the demands of an ever-evolving workplace.
In alignment with the conference theme, Collins’ session, “Catching the Vibe of Self: Releasing Struggle, Embracing Flow,” provided a fresh, compassionate approach to leadership by helping attendees shift from reactive mode to intentional influence.
Drawing from personal experience and her signature be. love. philosophy, Collins encouraged participants to embrace mindfulness and self-awareness as essential leadership tools. She shared transformative practices to empower leaders to manage change with clarity, confidence and resilience.
“HR professionals shoulder the responsibility of steering culture, compliance and strategy, yet in doing so, many lose touch with their own well-being,” said Collins. “This conversation offered permission to pause, reflect and lead from a place of alignment and authenticity.”
Through relatable stories and practical exercises, Collins invited the audience to consider how their energy and presence shape outcomes. She emphasized that by leading with love and curiosity, rather than control, professionals can cultivate stronger teams and attract opportunities organically.
