There is a lot of noise. It may be because of the volume and intensity of information, the pace and juggling multiple modes of communication. You may feel like you can control it, or not. And like burnout, it’s up to us as individuals to manage it, whether you turn it off or turn it down. And that takes a lot of energy, especially to find focus for the things you want to hear.

Join us for a power hour to regain your focus to consider what distracts you, envision what a focused future can look like and how it benefits, and share tools, tactics and tidbits, leaving with even one idea that changes how you go about your day or week. Be ready to ease into a brief grounding visionization, reflect with a few prompts and share ideas in a breakout room.
