Stressed and Challenged But Engaged!

Adam Saenz, Opening Keynoter

If only stress weren’t so stressful. There is good news, though: stress doesn’t have to be the enemy! In fact, we can enhance our emotional intelligence by identifying the sources of our stress and creating a plan for adaptive stress management.

Stress fuel—adrenaline and cortisol—can empower us to be Life-Givers or Life-Suckers, and fortunately, we get to make the choice. This workshop will give you practical strategies to connect and engage with each other to successfully surf the wave of stress, leading to a more adaptive and resilient you! Based on the forthcoming book The Stress Management Playbook.

The return on investment for this time together:

-Participants will learn the definition, symptoms and risks of stress.

-Participants will understand the fight-or-flight model and how in our best moments, we engage and disengage to be Life Givers.

-Participants will understand how to build their four-part relational Dream, and how to lead from that relational model.
