Session: Transform Stress to Resilience: The Power of Social Connection

Stress, burnout and loneliness rates among women in tech are rising to epidemic levels globally. However, as women, we have an inbuilt biological superpower that we can train and strengthen to build our mental health, resilience and wellbeing. In this talk, we will discover what that is, and how we can use it to adapt to any challenge and grow through adversity.
