This Month’s Theme

In high-performance environments, burnout is real — and it doesn’t just affect productivity. It impacts trust, communication, and the ability to lead with clarity. In this interactive session, we’ll explore practical tools to:

Identify early signs of burnout in yourself and others
Shift team dynamics and workflows to reduce stress
Recharge and restore intentionally without losing momentum

Featuring Guest Experts:

Lily Shepard, Wellness Consultant & Body Intelligence Specialist
Rachel Kanarowski, Founder of the Year of Living Better®

Why Join the Roundtable?

You can Google leadership tips. But you can’t Google or GPT real-time connection, coaching, and strategy.

This is for you if you want to:

Lead with confidence and clarity
Build empowered, energized teams
Elevate your impact while staying grounded in your values
Learn from diverse voices and real-life leadership stories

Every month features a new topic with curated guest experts and a facilitated learning experience led by executive and leadership coach Akua Nyame-Mensah.
