Join us on August 27 for our next Accelerate(her) event: From Burnout to Breakthrough: The Mindset Reset for Women in Tech!

Many high-achieving women believe success comes from working harder, learning more, and earning more credentials. However, in fast-moving industries like technology, constant pressure, high expectations, and nonstop change can quietly lead to stress, exhaustion, and burnout – even for the most passionate professionals.

In this session, Edyta Satchell, wellness expert and entrepreneur, shares how women can recognize early signs of burnout, protect their well-being, and rebuild the mindset needed to thrive in demanding careers.
