What audiences say
Laurie’s work shifted something for me, because it helped me remember that the ideas, technologies, and solutions in this space are only as effective and resilient as the people who are trying to make it happen. If sustainability professionals burn out, we risk delaying our ability to address the climate crisis. Laurie’s session was the eye opening moment I needed in order to begin to do the internal work for myself.
“Laurie’s session was arguably the most important session of the conference. Sustainability relies on the resilience of the PEOPLE who are making it happen.”
“Laurie was incredible. This session was the best one I attended at SXSW! Laurie and the other participants taught me so much in the 2 hours but I also really appreciated that the session wasn’t just about what your burnout is BUT more importantly tools and tips for how to combat it. So many of the other sessions just talk about the problem so I really liked that this one also talked about tangible solutions! Laurie is also just an incredible speaker who really created a safe comfortable environment.”
