Program Description:

As our social and work lives begin to open up after the year-long challenges of pandemic living and anti-Asian hate and violence, it becomes essential for us to recognize stressors and develop coping strategies. May is Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month and also Mental Health Awareness Month. Asian Women Leadership Network believes that the emotional and physical well-being of members is a cornerstone for personal and professional success.

AWLN member, Dr. Penelope Hsu, provided a glimpse of her stress management techniques during our recent listening session. Now, she asks: “Are you physically, emotionally, and mentally exhausted at the end of every day, unsure of what to do to alleviate your stress?” Penelope will lead this interactive lively workshop which teaches participants how to first recognize stress and then provides practical, easy to use tools, Life Hacks, that are proven to reduce stress and increase energy to get through the busiest of days for any professional.

By the end of this training, all participants will:

  • Gain a deeper understanding of stress and our stress responses
  • Immediately notice the difference in stress levels, by practicing a few stress management tools via live demonstration
  • Walk away with their own toolkit of practical stress management strategies that can be used in any situation
