Stress Managment Tips. Are You Burning Out?

As a motivational speaker I was honored to be the keynote speaker at a recent conference in the insurance industry.

Shock ran through the room.

One of the board members was taken to the Emergency Room right before my talk.

It looked like she was close to having a stroke. Her doctor ordered her to have 3 months bed rest. Did she do it? Nope. She got on a plane for her next event. Does that behavior describe you or someone you know?

A new study finds that women experience more physical and physiological stress than men. Why? Women have more roles to juggle. More roles = more stress. In my book, Funky to Fabulous I did research that added more to this theory. Women have 1/7 the testosterone of men. So we are handling more stressors with fewer resources.
