From Pain to Power: Mental Health, Identity, and Leadership in the Workplace

From Pain to Power: Mental Health, Identity, and Leadership in the Workplace

Thursday, May 21, 2026 (3:00 PM - 5:00 PM) (EDT)

Description


In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, award-winning Identity Coach™ and Inner Power Partners® founder Lynn Lessell hosts a candid conversation about how stress, burnout, and “holding it all together” impact leaders and teams at work. 


Through the lens of her new companion books for professional men and women, Lynn will explore the connection between mental health, identity, and performance, and how unspoken pain often surfaces in communication, decision-making, and workplace culture. 


Joining Lynn are Certified Nutritionist Susan Shub, who will share how everyday food choices can support or undermine our mental health and energy, and Licensed Clinical Social Worker Joe Milisitz, who will offer practical insight into recognizing signs of emotional strain and responding in healthy, stigma-free ways.


Together, they will highlight simple, realistic strategies that professionals and organizations can use to foster well-being and authenticity at work. This interactive program includes brief talks from each speaker, time for Q&A, and space for networking and reflection. 


Attendees will leave with ideas to support their own resilience and to create healthier, more open conversations about mental health and identity in their workplaces. 


Healthy light bites sponsored by Yard House Boca Raton, book signing, and photo opportunities during the program.
