Brasília is 2 hours ahead of New York

Best overlap: 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM in New York is 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM in Brasília.

If you set up a recurring sync, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM in New York (10:00 AM to 6:00 PM in Brasília) is the natural home for it. Brasília is 2 hours ahead of New York, but you still share a generous 8 hours of overlap, so scheduling is easy and there's room to move a meeting when you need to.
