Women in healthcare and science face unique challenges that impact both their professional advancement and personal well-being. Recent studies show that women in STEM fields experience burnout at significantly higher rates than their male counterparts, with healthcare workers reporting exhaustion levels exceeding 60%. The combination of systemic barriers, caregiving responsibilities, and workplace pressures creates a perfect storm that threatens both career longevity and personal health.
In this dynamic session, we'll explore evidence-based strategies for recognizing and managing burnout before it derails your career. Our expert panelists will share their personal journeys through challenging periods and the tools they've developed to maintain balance, set boundaries, and prioritize self-care without sacrificing ambition. You'll learn practical techniques for building resilience and creating sustainable work practices that support long-term success.
Beyond self-care, advocacy is essential. We'll discuss how to effectively communicate your value, negotiate for what you deserve, and champion both yourself and other women in your organization. This event is designed to equip you with the confidence and concrete skills needed to navigate your career with purpose, advocate for systemic change, and create a more supportive environment for all women in STEM fields.
