She shares some great ideas about how to deal with stress so that it doesn't take over your life!Shlomit Tassa was a corporate manager with frequent flyer status and an expense account. It was fun and exciting at first. But over the years, with 3 kids and aging parents added to the mix, it became overwhelming and exhausting. Following her own burnout experience, Shlomit now coaches ambitious leaders on how to avoid or recover from overwhelm and chronic stress. Today she combines work, eye rolling teens, and being a primary caregiver, with yoga, museums and travel (preferably with friends!) It requires focus and intent, but it is no longer overwhelming. She'd love to help you do the same!For more information about how you can become the leader everyone wants to work for, go to www.TodaysTopLeaders.com.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
