About This Workshop

Work-life blend right now can seem impossible especially during busy seasons at work and those at home like transitions back to school, start of summer and family holidays. Technology makes you accessible 24/7 and fear about job loss may drive you to work longer hours. Compounding stress from the never-ending workday can harm family life, health and overall happiness. Parents often report feeling guilt about family when at work and stressed about work tasks when with their family.

This interactive online workshop will provide you with the opportunity to consider the current research related to work-life blend and identify realistic approaches to address your most important challenges. Participants in this session will recognize that you can’t “do it all.”

After this workshop, you will be able to:

  • Identify approaches to communicate about work that will support better work-life blend.
  • Apply strategies that manage boundaries and support recovery.
  • Recognize the importance of instrumental and emotional social support and plan action steps to develop these resources.
