QU x Queer Business Club workshop series: Burnout Reset - Your Guide to Healing and Prevention
Queer Unplugged and the Queer Business Club present an impactful workshop series dedicated to tackling the pervasive issue of burnout.
In today's fast-paced, "go-get" culture, self-care is often an afterthought. This series is designed to equip you with the tools and insights needed to navigate professional and personal challenges while prioritising your mental well-being.
Join us to explore practical strategies for healing, resilience, and sustainable prevention.

A WORKSHOP by Dorchess de Koning
In this workshop we deconstruct the notion of work-life balance, practice the balancing act by hands-on exercises and creative methodology and learn practices for burn-out prevention. The workshop is led by Experience Designer and trainer Dorchess de Koning, Msc., who has a background in mental health science, behavioural psychology and experiential learning.
