Overview of the Talk
As we all learn to adjust to our new normal, many of us are still left with varying levels of psychological stress, strain, and exhaustion. Mental illness, another affliction brought on by the pandemic, has never been higher - with studies showing a 30% increase in major mental health struggles. Join us to kick off Be Well, Be Safe week as we spend time together to identify empathic strain, burnout and emotional “pain points” from the pandemic. We will explore contributing factors and leave with some personal and professional biopsychosocial strategies for achieving post-pandemic growth.
