Description

Stress is universally recognized as the primary risk factor for health issues, impacting professionals and parents alike and potentially leading to burnout. It often feels like work-related stress is unavoidable, and we must simply accept the challenges inherent in fields characterized by trauma and chaos.

But what if serving individuals facing loss, fear, trauma, and other adversities didn't have to result in personal wear and tear? What if there were ways to navigate these circumstances without experiencing the negative effects ourselves?

Join us as we welcome back author, trainer, and consultant Jules Alvarado as she walks us through an in-depth masterclass on how to go from "Chaos to Calm" and find our anchors during turbulent times.
