Keynote
Stress Relief in the Modern Workplace
Stress isn't new to people, but most organizations only talk about it generically. After a career as a Marine and nearly 15 years as a police officer, Scott doesn't teach stress management from a textbook. He teaches what actually works when the pressure is real and immediate.
- Spot the stress patterns hiding behind "I'm fine" before the damage occurs.
- Avoid the identity crisis where what you do becomes who you are.
- Build simple daily habits, like breathing and gratitude tools you can actually use in the moment.
- Learn to prevail under pressure without losing what makes you human.
