Guest Expert: Haley Swenson on the Mental Load
Haley Swenson is a PhD social scientist and storyteller working to solve the country's most pressing social, policy, and workplace challenges. With corporate social impact expert Lauren Berry, Swenson founded Work Life Everything, a project for gathering and designing research-backed solutions to the mental load.
In Lightening the Mental Load, Swenson will walk participants through an introductory workshop designed to help them take a snapshot of their mental loads, understand its origins in work, family, and society, and explore four main intervention pathways for lightening it. Participants will leave with a clearer idea of their biggest stressors and the tools they can employ to focus their attention on tasks that relate to their core values.
