SUMMARY:IN-PERSON | The Lab | Session Three: Optimize
DESCRIPTION:The Lab: Bring a Challenge. Leave with Possibilities.\n\nLife rarely hands us a clear next step. Whether you're navigating a career move\, growing a business\, rethinking a relationship\, or simply sensing that something needs to change\, the hardest part isn't always making a decision. It's making sure that what you're creating actually feels like you.\n\n\n\nThe Lab is an interactive three-part series that invites you to bring one real challenge and explore it differently. Using the Calibrate   Experiment   Optimize framework\, you'll learn to separate your signal from the noise\, test new possibilities without needing to know the outcome\, and use what you discover to shape what comes next. Blending reflection\, interactive exercises\, live science experiments\, and original live music\, The Lab combines scientific thinking with creative discovery to help you explore what's possible.\n\n\n\nEach session stands on its own\, while the full series allows you to take one challenge through the complete process.\n\n \n\nSession Three: OPTIMIZE: Create What Fits\n\nWhat if changing your mind didn't mean you got it wrong? What if it meant you finally had enough information to choose differently?\n\n\n\nIn this session\, you'll use what you've learned through experimentation to refine your direction and make it more your own. You'll learn to recognize what fits and give yourself permission to change what doesn't. Like an artist\, you'll create as you go\, allowing what you discover to shape choices that increasingly reflect who you are and what matters to you.\n\n\n\nAttendees will leave with:\n\n	Turn experience into useful information instead of evidence that you succeeded or failed.\n	Recognize when something no longer fits and give yourself permission to change direction.\n	Use what you've learned about yourself to make your direction more your own.\n	Carry new information and greater self-awareness into your next creation.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Kelsey Miles is a scientist\, songwriter\, and speaker who uses scientific thinking and creative discovery to help people navigate uncertainty\, challenge assumptions\, and discover what's possible.\n\n\n\nAs a chemist in research labs and lecture halls\, and as a musician in recording studios and on stages across the country\, Dr. Miles discovered the same lesson: breakthroughs come from experimentation\, not certainty. That lesson became the foundation for her CEO Framework (Calibrate. Experiment. Optimize.) and signature programs\, Signal Over Noise and Life Experiments . Through live chemistry and original music\, Dr. Miles creates an experience unlike any other. Audiences don't just learn the framework. They experience it in real time.\n\n\n\nDr. Miles is the 2026 Avila University Professor of the Year\, an award-winning songwriter\, and a 2025 International Blues Challenge Semi-Finalist. She brings a rare combination of scientific thinking and creative insight to audiences across the country.\n\n\n\nThink Like a Scientist. Create Like an Artist.
