Beyond Burnout

As uncertainty escalates in the post-pandemic area, one thing is perfectly clear: stress levels are over the top. 78% of Americans feel alone in their struggle to overcome overwhelm, and 52% of Americans report feeling burned out from the battle. Leadership is largely out of touch with these alarming realities and unequipped to help employees -- and themselves -- recover.

  • Understand what burnout really is (not what you think it is) and how to spot the signs in yourself and others.

  • Recognize how toxic definitions of work/life balance and resilience are contributing to burnout.

  • Learn the latest peak performance psychology tactics to increase stamina.

  • Discover sustainable ways to boost your energy and channel it into your top priorities. 

  • Feel more motivated, engaged, and in command – no matter what work and life throw at you.
