an Peterson Hincapie, a native of Rockford and a product of the Rockford Park District, spent 40 years in the parks and recreation industry. Jan has spoken throughout the nation on various topics, including engagements at the National Recreation and Parks Conference, The Athletic Business Conference and state park and recreation conferences in eight states. She also has done training for Wintrust Bank, school districts, city government, and libraries, and she does consulting in the areas of strategic planning, executive coaching, and meeting facilitation.

Keeping her Swedish roots alive is a priority for Jan and was very important to her late parents, Bob and Asta Peterson. When planning a trip to Sweden for the first time this past summer, she became interested in Lagom, a life philosophy taught to Swedes early in life. This fell in line with over a decade of research regarding life balance, a concern for so many individuals in today’s world. Lagom is rooted in harmony, moderation, and sustainability. The mantra she frequently heard was “Not too much, Not too little, Just right!” During her time in Sweden, Jan interviewed individuals about what Lagom meant to them and observed it first hand. One of the individuals she talked to named her the unofficial “Lagom Ambassador to the US”! Jan will talk about how we, as Americans, can incorporate Lagom into our lives to experience a happier, more productive existence while improving our relationships and finding greater joy in all we do.

Join us for this presentation, accompanied by a fika with the speaker. Cost for the presentation is $10.00 for Members and $15.00 for Non Members.
