Workforce Wellness Recharge_Drivers, Detours, and Destinations: Strength-Based Goal Setting for the Public Health Workforce 

Note: This is a live webinar on February 3, from 12:00 pm-1:30 pm ET. Participants will use Zoom to join. 

Training Overview:

After the holidays, many public health professionals return to work feeling depleted, scattered, and pressured to “get back on track.” They continue to make meaningful contributions in their communities while carrying heavy workloads, public responsibility, and personal stress. Drivers, Detours, and Destinations reframes goal setting as a reset rather than a restart, acknowledging that progress is rarely linear and that detours are part of the journey. 

Grounded in recovery-informed practice and neuroscience, this webinar introduces a strength-based, brain-informed approach to goal setting that honors burnout, setbacks, and real-world constraints. Participants will explore why traditional goal-setting often fails under stress, how capacity and follow-through are impacted by burnout, and how to create small, sustainable actions that build momentum over time. If you slip, you don’t stop—you recalibrate, reset, and keep moving forward. 

Please note: This webinar is designed to be more interactive and will not be recorded.
