MIA: A Fireside Chat: The Power of Real Optimism w/ Dr. Deepika Chopra
We talk a lot about resilience.
But rarely about how to build it when life feels heavy.
Join Mysha, The Bath Club and Dr. Deepika Chopra, known as The Optimism Doctor®, for an intimate conversation on emotional steadiness in seasons that stretch us.
This isn’t about forced positivity.
It’s about real optimism.
The kind rooted in science, lived experience, and practical skills you can actually use.
Written during one of the hardest chapters of her own life, The Power of Real Optimism reframes optimism not as mindset, but as a set of evidence-based tools that shape how we think, relate, decide, and move through uncertainty.
Together, we’ll explore:
✨ What real optimism actually means, and how it differs from toxic positivity
✨ The neuroscience of resilience and how to build it in real time
✨ How curiosity expands capacity instead of narrowing it
✨ Practical tools for staying steady when motherhood, ambition, and uncertainty collide
What to Expect:
✨ A fireside conversation with Dr. Deepika Chopra, moderated by Mysha founder Marika Frumes
✨ Interactive Q+A to bring your own questions into the room
✨ Mysha-style facilitated connection with like-valued women navigating full lives
✨ A copy of The Power of Real Optimism included with your ticket
Step into a room where optimism isn’t naive.
It’s practiced.
It’s built.
And it’s shared.
