Inspired by unprecedented times, this year’s YES! Vancouver events follow an overarching theme of ‘Telling Your Story.’ Everyone has their own 2020 COVID story related to work, relationships, life, health, anxiety and stress. The intention is to normalize difficult times and the sharing of experiences with the wider community, while providing support for each other both personally and professionally.
