Maggie Wilhelm, LPCC- WISe Mental Health Coach in Residence and Meagan Connley - WISe Member present Stress Support: Why You Can't Outrun Stress & How to Manage It.
Being under constant stress seems normalized in our society, but that doesn't mean our bodies are equipped to handle it. In this session, we will share information about what stress is, how it impacts your body short term and long term, and practical tips for stress management. Your body does not make mistakes. It responds the only way it knows how. It responds to the environment it's in. It is trying to tell you something.
Maggie Wilhelm is an Empowerment & Confidence Coach-In-Residence, Founder of The Serenity Program, New Mom & Social Justice Advocate.

This pattern of people-pleasing appears in the form of giving too much or too little to others, not knowing or asserting our limits, getting involved too quickly, trusting too easily, intruding on others’ boundaries, staying in toxic relationships, heightened stress & pressure to appease others, intense emotions (especially guilt & shame), great difficulty saying “No,” Even at the expense of our own needs & mental health.
Preventing burnout is at the core of WISe Wellness Guild’s mission. We believe that helping women to maintain “center” amongst the 8 pillars of whole-self wellness is crucial for peak performance in all aspects of life, and in order to provide support for others we must be first strong ourselves. In order to shatter systematic racism, we must be strong enough to punch.
