Once upon a time, work was work and it stayed at work. Fast forward to today, and my work follows me everywhere. How do I create the best work-life balance for me (does that even exist anymore)?

Description
We have entered a new working world. The last few years have been rated by 7 in 10 as the most stressful time in their career. Workloads have increased and so has the use of technology. What is the impact on our health and work-life balance? Is work-life balance even possible, and if yes, what does that even look like? Brain imaging and psychological studies have provided new insights on how we can answer these questions. This workshop provides new tools we can use to not only protect ourselves from these risk factors, but thrive in this new working world.

It was interesting to hear my co-workers raise issues I have too. I’m not alone in the challenges this workshop deals with. And I know what to do.
