Are you finding it difficult to focus during lockdown and get your most impactful tasks done? Our brains are in survival mode, ready for flight or fight, not deep working. We have to work with that, not try to fight it. Some of us are also feeling the pressure to overachieve –to find time, to learn new languages or skills, write a novel and watch self-improving movies with the family while eating delicious, nutritious meals. This lockdown shaming can make us feel even more stressed.
Hosted by Executive Coach, Zena Everett, This highly practical and interactive one hour session will help you to reboot your coping strategies, focus on what’s important and work more effectively:
