As we barrel toward year-end goals and the chaos of the holiday season, many of us are running on fumes—exhausted from proposal marathons and client holiday outreach, strained by competing priorities, and quietly trying to power through it all. Yet we’re expected to be creative, strategic, and composed, all while responding to everything... and everyone.

And while most of us power through, that survival mode comes at a cost: mental fog, creative blocks, short tempers, sleepless nights, and total energy depletion.

But what if you had two incredibly simple, high-impact techniques to take you from surviving to vibing?

In this powerful, no-fluff workshop, Certified Brain Health Coach Lisa Marini will dive into the neuroscience of stress in fast-paced roles like ours, and explain exactly how your brain reacts under the pressure of high-stakes, deadline-driven environments. She’ll teach you how to shift out of survival mode and into focused clarity in minutes (and no, it’s not bubble baths or yoga). You’ll leave with renewed energy and practical methods to get through the year-end chaos... without losing your mind in the process.

Participants will gain:

• A science-backed understanding of why stress hijacks your focus and creativity.
• Two powerful techniques to move from survival mode to focused action in an instant.
• Research-backed strategies to keep stress low and energy high, long term.
• Practical ways to protect your creativity, clarity, and well-being—even when the demands don’t stop.
• Permission (and practices) to stop white-knuckling your way through Q4.
