Overview:

In our new hybrid world, every working Australian needs to learn a new set of skills and strategies to switch off after work and stop, refuel and recharge.

Performing at our best – both at work and in life – requires us to prioritise wellbeing and learn the skills and techniques to manage and maximise our own mental fitness.  

Mindstar’s engaging & inspirational workshops provide your team with the practical & powerful tools and strategies to deal with stress, pressure and adversity.

 The goal is for every participant to start to build their own "wellbeing toolbelt".

Learning Outcomes:

1. Preventative skills to deal with stress and improve mental wellbeing
2. Understanding the normal ups and downs of life and how to deal with them
3. Practical tools to better manage stress, anxiety, fatigue and day to day work & life challenges

Leaders constantly prioritise the care and wellbeing of our team - which can sometimes mean that they put themselves last.

A leader’s busy workloads gruesome schedule and day-to-day stress - or even just the challenges of balancing work & life - can cause an increase in feelings of anxiety, burnout, change-fatigue & even self-doubt.

The inner world of the leader has been much ignored.

Mindstar’s wellbeing workshops for leaders provide them with the practical leadership tools and psychological strategies to support the wellbeing of themselves - and their team members.

Workshops content can include:

• The Key Traits of Successful Leaders – Authenticity, Vulnerability & Empathy
• Managing Stress - At work or at home
• Psychological Safety - The #1 predictor of successful teams
• The 6 Buckets of Wellbeing - Wellbeing Check-in Tool
•  Work & Life Balance – How to "switch off" outside work & refuel & recharge
• Bringing Back the Joy – How to reintroduce joy back into your work, and life? 
• “Leading With Care” - How to identify when someone in your team is struggling - and what to do about it

What is “Lifeshit”?

We have never had so much lifeshit on our plate as we do right now.

Lifeshit is…

Daily stress, relationship stress, financial distress, constant organisational restructures, being a parent, having ageing parents, the cost of living, interest rates, an overflowing inbox, constant crises, global wars, or an uncertain economic outlook…

In the midst of all of this, stress, anxiety, fatigue and the constant battle to create a healthy work/life balance is an ongoing chellenge for many of us.

So, what can we do differently to live and work well – in spite of the high expectations of our roles and our gruesome work schedules?

The good news is that just like we can improve our physical fitness - our muscles, heart and lungs - we can also improve our mental fitness.

It’s actually pretty simple.

In this 60-minute masterclass, leading wellbeing expert and mental health professional, Mindstar CEO Aaron Williams, will teach you the practical tools and strategies to improve your day-to-day wellbeing.

Aaron’s goal? To educate and inspire every participant to focus on their mental fitness and have the simple tools & strategies to build their own "mental fitness toolbelt".

While most people eventually recover over time, a sizeable proportion will experience mental health problems in the months or even years after a critical or traumatic event.  The psychological impacts of complex or critical events and major disasters can be long lasting and widespread (Black Dog, 2020).

Despite a range of effective treatments readily accessible, most people with mental health conditions are reluctant to seek help. This creates multiple risks for employers and for the wellbeing and mental health of the impacted individuals. 

To provide an essential duty of care, Mindstar provides Group Support/Listening Sessions for leaders and teams who have been impacted by trauma, grief or challenging events.  

Mindstar’s online webinar workshops provide important post-incident leadership & psychological support for individuals who have been directly or indirectly affected.

 Events can include:

• Critical incidents or traumatic events
• Support through organisational restructures or times of change 
• Grief, suicide or self-harm
• Complex issues - mental health or leadership issues
• Abuse, sexual assault or violence - in the workplace or at home
• Natural disasters, weather incidents or workplace accidents
• High profile cases in media or inquiries
• Multi-stakeholder mediation process or relationship repair
• Executive group support for Senior Leadership Teams
