Burnout doesn’t come from one big crisis. It builds up – one stressful meeting, impossible decision, and late-night email at a time.

This session is for local government leaders who are trying to keep things moving while running on fumes. We’ll discuss burnout, why stress persists, and how to complete the stress cycle instead of staying stuck in it.

We’ll cover:
How your body and brain respond to modern stressors
The stress cycle—and how to break it
Simple tools to help you and your team recover

You’ll leave with real strategies, not fluff. Just practical ways to lead with more clarity and less depletion.
