2026 Flourishing Summit: A Dive into Well-Being
On September 3, 2026, the Trilith Foundation will host its highly anticipated second annual Flourishing Summit at Trilith LIVE in Fayetteville, Georgia. This unique event gathers a diverse group of thought leaders to answer a vital question: What does it truly mean to flourish?
The Idea of Flourishing
Flourishing is about more than merely surviving; it is about thriving, living fully, and contributing positively to society. The Summit aims to bridge the gap between academic research and practical application, creating actionable insights that participants can carry into their lives. Grounded in months of research, including contributions from Harvard's Human Flourishing Program and Baylor University, the Summit extends ideas from the recently published
Human Flourishing: A Field Guide.
Distinguished Speakers
The Summit will feature a lineup of dynamic speakers, including Emmy Award-winning actor Paul Walter Hauser, Chick-fil-A executive Dan T. Cathy, and wellness expert Miles Adcox. With their varied perspectives, these leaders will delve into what flourishing looks like in various sectors of life — from education to business, and even personal growth. Other notable attendees include AI expert James Poulter and Gallup CEO Jon Clifton, among others.
Interactive Sessions
Rather than a conventional conference setup, the Flourishing Summit is designed for interaction and engagement. Attendees will benefit from main stage discussions marrying storytelling with research insights, alongside breakout sessions that allow participants to choose specific tracks to investigate how flourishing manifests personally and within their communities.
A Focus on Wellness
To complement the intellectual stimulation, the Summit incorporates wellness activities such as chair massages and nervous system care, ensuring that participants feel revitalized throughout the day. Moreover, food options will be easily accessible at the Town at Trilith, enhancing the overall experience.
"Our mission is simple; we want to inspire every attendee to leave feeling empowered and equipped to pursue a life filled with health and purpose," said Jordan Preston, the Director of Events at Trilith Foundation.
