The Resilient Leadership Series – Balance Life, Work and Overwhelm
Overview:
How is your work-life balance these days? How did life get so insanely busy? Wasn’t work at home and hybrid workplaces supposed to free up our time, decrease commute time and reconnect people with their families and everything else that matters most? How has the Great Resignation morphed into the Great Exhaustion? It seems everyone is tired.
Burnout is on the rise and mental health is decreasing. We are all searching for better ways to manage work overload and the feeling of overwhelm that comes with too much to do and too much uncertainty.
This session will help you set up a routine that is productive, healthy, and sustainable. We will get beyond “hustling for your worth” and wired in beliefs that keep you constantly rushing and pressing to get things done. You will find daily tools to help you focus, energize, and allocate your time on the things that matter most. You will discover the real meaning of self-care, and some ways to set limits so you can spend more time with your family. You will leave with simple strategies to stay present and find some joy and pleasure in a world in flux.
