In an effort to gear up for a surge in business, the management team at DLA Architects was seeking a way to help our employees cope with upcoming stress. Debbie Vyskocil helped our team to identify what stress looks like in their body, along with how it impacts health, memory and cognitive functioning. She brought us a variety of techniques team members can use to deal effectively with both work and personal challenges. Thanks to Debbie, we were prepared for the “end of the year crunch” and we now have a healthier staff that is ready for whatever the new year brings.

A wonderful opening speaker for our conference, Debbie spoke about how unplanned or unexpected discoveries are what change the world. She highlighted stress as a major roadblock to staying open and creative and led the group in exercises to maintain focus. I really enjoyed the way audience interaction was weaved throughout her talk; it set a wonderful tone for the remainder of the conference.
