Feeling overwhelmed, stressed and burned out? Is connecting with clients harder? You are not alone. Stress and burnout are real concerns that financial advisors face as professionals who help others. The stress we have endured over the past three years has created or, in some cases, intensified these issues. Striking a balance may seem impossible. This session will explore stress and burnout and provide tools for financial planners to manage burnout so you can keep thriving in your work with clients—even when you don’t feel like it.
