Professionals are under tremendous stress, and it’s affecting them personally in health, relationships, and business. According to the American Institute of Stress:
- 48% of Americans feel their stress has increased over the past five years
- Stress is the basic cause of 60% of all human illness and disease
- 54% of Americans say stress has caused them to fight with people close to them
Stress-related healthcare and missed work time cost US companies a whopping $300B annually. Leaders, especially women professionals, need a new way to be in the work world.
