As we move into the summer holidays, the last thing most sustainability professionals need is another workshop telling them to be more resilient, manage their time better, or add another wellbeing practice to an already overflowing list.

This session takes a different approach.

For those working to create positive change, there can be a constant tension between the urgency of the challenges we face and the reality of our own human capacity. When progress feels slow and the problems feel immense, it’s easy to wonder whether you’re doing enough, coping well enough, or somehow falling short.

In this honest, practical, and evidence-based workshop, Kim Croasdale explores why this experience is so common and why the difficulty is real. Together, we’ll look beyond individual solutions to examine the wider systems and pressures that contribute to burnout, overwhelm, and exhaustion in meaningful work.
