Session: Well-Being Ups & Downs: 18+ Years Growing Up in Tech

Leveraging personal narrative regarding the challenges of taking care of ourselves while meeting the demands of technical roles, I detail the 5 levers we have to help control our stress and guide attendees about how to simply incorporate them into their lives. The key takeaway is that attendees are the CEO of their lives and do not have to have it all/do it all, but do need to take care of themselves to do their best work and sustain high performance. No prep or knowledge required.
