Prevent Burnout and Empathy Fatigue by Making Wellbeing a Priority in 2022

As business owners and leaders, we often don't take time to think about our own personal wellbeing.

This workshop is a Pattern Interrupt offering time out and a chance to think about your own personal leadership and wellbeing: a chance we often don’t have the opportunity to take. It's all about simple, practical and fun strategies and tools to keep ourselves and our teams productive, effective and motivated.

You will also walk away with tools to manage stress and be calmer and more in control of your emotions.

This event also includes a BONUS hands-on art activity led by Merel Purmer of The Art of Expression. As an Art Therapist and Counsellor, Merel is highly skilled in using the language of art to help you find new meaning, understanding and a connection to yourself.

Your ticket includes the workshop, coffee/tea and a light morning tea.

About Annie Harvey:

As a Wellbeing Educator, Annie weaves her story of resistance to change into her talks and workshops with great ease. She has a kitbag of tools that she shares and encourages you to take action on. Her workshops explore how we can prevent burnout in subtle yet powerful ways.

Annie is a natural thought leader, drawing from a wide range of disciplines, resources, practitioners and readings and adding her own experiences. Dealing with the stress and complexity of modern life leads many of us to search for answers. Unfortunately, what we too often discover is a bewildering array of approaches, studies, books and products. It can be difficult to know where to start.

Annie’s gift is making the complex simple, distilling her years of study into easy-to-understand sessions that help people take the first steps towards self- awareness, the foundation of emotional intelligence and greater personal leadership.

Annie is also a mindfulness teacher and laughter therapist and has also written a book called The Little Book of Still.

As a speaker, Annie is often referred to as the ‘pattern interrupt’. Her enthusiasm is infectious, providing groups with a natural ‘mood lift’ and the dynamic energy needed to make the most of your meetings and conferences.
