Career Webinar: How to Avoid Burnout, Tune into Your Intuition, and Ignite Your Power
2023-03-22 11:00 - 12:00 | Zoom

Nobody, no matter the field or role, is immune to burnout. According to the Mayo Clinic, “job burnout is a special type of work-related stress — a state of physical or emotional exhaustion that also involves a sense of reduced accomplishment and loss of personal identity,” that may be related to depression. And while depression is a much bigger bear to wrestle, we can take steps to address, manage, and prevent burnout.
Scott is an award-winning author and speaker; she has years of experience leading corporate innovation and sustainability. Scott was named one of the Top 10 Most Inspiring Women Leaders of 2022, is a thought leader on the 2023 Forbes Business Council, and her work was honored at the White House as part of its Energy Data Initiative.

Workforce Wednesdays: Build UP Your Stress Armor
2023-04-19 11:00 - 12:00 | Zoom
The Workforce Wednesdays Workshop Series Event hosted by the Middlesex County Office of Career Opportunity will present Rita Garnto speaking on the topic of “Build UP Your Stress Armor” at 11 a.m. Wednesday, April 19.
Stress is a matter of mental and physical health. When cortisol – “the stress hormone” – is constantly elevated, it can lead to psychological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and irritability, along with systemic, physiological symptoms, like fatigue, brain fog, digestive issues, pain, high blood pressure, and even heart disease. Learning where stress comes from, how it affects our brain and body, and how to tell when we are stressed are three key steps towards improving our mental, physical, and emotional health.
But fighting stress itself can be stressful, especially when you are already inundated with so many responsibilities and obligations, so the stress-busting solution needs to be simple and doable. Garnto will take workshop participants from crappy to happy with simple self-care tips.
Take a deep breath, count to 10, and join Garnto via Zoom for this free Workforce Wednesdays workshop. Click here or scan QR code in the flyer to register.
