Workshop: Don't Burn Out, Stand Out

Life as a business leader can feel like 100-miles an hour. There is always something else to be done to keep the business thriving, and the constant pressure to perform well can become overwhelming and stressful.

That’s why we’ve invited wellbeing expert Bethany Ainsley (OptiMe) to share her wealth of expertise, psychological theories and wellbeing techniques in this half-day workshop.

Drawing upon key learnings in her latest book ‘Don’t Burn Out, Stand Out’, Bethany will show you how to prevent burnout without sacrificing business performance.

You will learn how to:

• Implement effective techniques to manage your response to stress symptoms and triggers
• Nurture your mind and body to achieve optimal performance
• Apply happiness and gratitude techniques to enhance positive feelings and take pleasure in your personal and business life
• Overcome overwhelm, procrastination and imposter syndrome to become unstoppable
• Recognise when you need to switch off and rebalance to return to work energised and raring to go

Designed for both business leaders and their teams, come along and find out how you can start harmonising your health, wellbeing and working life.
