**ABOUT OUR PRESENTATION:**
Stop working oh-so-very hard and create play in your life and business!
Are you finding enjoyment and play in your business? Running a business is hard, and you don't have to make it harder by taking it too seriously, running yourself ragged, and letting stress lead the way.
Join Chrysta Bairre, Career Coach, Speaker, and Author, for a playful session that will inspire play in your work! In this interactive talk you'll learn:
- The benefits of a more playful approach to business
- How to invite more play into your work and life so you have more fun and more success!
**ABOUT OUR PRESENTER:**
Chrysta Bairre (she/her) is an advocate for herself and others. As a child she grew up in poverty, surrounded by family members with mental illness and addiction, while her own non-apparent disability went unrecognized and undiagnosed. A queer woman with several disabilities, she fought to get the help and support she needed to thrive, and became a voice for unseen and under-served people like herself.
Today, Chrysta is a career coach and professional speaker, helping women increase their income and impact through valuing their own inherent worth, setting boundaries and saying no in business, and advocating for themselves. She engages and inspires on stage, speaking to employees on banishing burnout, overcoming impostor syndrome, and workplace mental health.
Chrysta is also the founder of She Goes High, a 1,900+ member introvert and neurodivergent-friendly women’s leadership community in Northern Colorado. She Goes High hosts more than 30 events per year to support women leaders in taking up their space in the world and leaving their legacy!
Her first book, Beautiful Badass: How to Believe in Yourself Against the Odds, shares stories and lessons from overcoming poverty and depression in this guide for women who want to take command of their destinies and no longer fall prey to the hardships and setbacks that previously defined them. She is currently writing her next book on the topic of asking for help.
