Stuart Country Day School Hosts Second Annual Cor Cordis Wellness Summit

March 19, 2026

Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart held its second annual Cor Cordis Wellness Summit on Wednesday, February 4. Upper School students spent the day in workshops led by professional women in the fields of health and wellness, engaging with wellness as both a personal practice and a shared responsibility. The event reflects Stuart's commitment to advancing well-being as essential to personal growth and leadership development.

Throughout the day, students participated in small-group, interactive workshops designed to honor individuality, reflection, and connection. Sessions ranged from yoga, strength and conditioning, and sound healing to journaling, vision boarding, songwriting, cooking, and movement. Together, these experiences affirmed that well-being takes many forms and is shaped by intention, self-awareness, and care for one's whole self.

"The Cor Cordis Wellness Summit offers our Upper School students a meaningful pause from their daily routines and a powerful opportunity to reflect on wellness through the lens of our Sacred Heart values," shared Head of Upper School Kristen Zosche. "Rooted in our commitment to educating the whole person, this experience reminds adolescent girls that prioritizing their well-being is essential to who they are becoming as purpose-driven leaders."

This year's summit carried added significance with the inclusion of National Girls and Women in Sports Day. Students had the privilege to hear from the keynote speaker, Olympian, Priscilla Loomis, a three-time Hall of Fame inductee, national record holder, and world-class medalist. Loomis expressed the importance of showing up daily, protecting one's self-worth and not allowing oneself to be limited by others' perceptions. Her message emphasized courage, confidence, perseverance, and using one's gifts in service of a greater purpose. This resonates deeply within our all-girls Sacred Heart community and reinforces the power of leadership and wellness and how connected they are to honoring the mind, body and spirit.

Building on its success, the Cor Cordis Wellness Summit will remain a signature event for the school that empowers young women to honor their inner lives, lead with intention, and nourish their well-being.
