BUSINESS X-CHANGE PRESENTATION – WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 12, 2022
Business X-Change meets regularly throughout the year. Our January X-Change will be held in person at the Portage County Business Council office. Business X-Change allows business owners and their employees the opportunity to discuss pertinent topics, learn from local industry leaders and, most importantly, learn from each other.

Title: "Mental Health for Small Business Professionals"
Presented by:
Brianna Saxer, Soul-Care Facilitator
The Garden Wellness
About the Program: Your mental health directly impacts your business and employees, but often the toll of running a business drives us to mental collapse if we aren't careful to steward ourselves equally as well as steward our business. In this Business X-Change presentation we will cover the warning signs of burnout, take a wellness inventory, and analyze where we can better invest our mental energy, so we can lead and direct well.
Key Points to Include:
- The effects of running a small business on our mental health.
- The warning signs of stress, fatigue and burnout.
- How to take a self-inventory to assess where we are at mentally.
- Where and how to invest in your mental wellness in ways that work sustainably for you and your business.
About our Presenter:
Briana Saxer, the Soul-Care Facilitator at The Garden Wellness in Plover, has worked in the wellness industry for over 15 years, certified through the Wellness and Massage Institute. She has operated as an employee, business owner, worked within non-profits, and ministry leadership in high burnout positions. She has learned how to watch for the warning signals of stress, fatigue and burnout, not only in herself, but in those she leads. She has seen the dangerous effects of stress on individuals and businesses. In her leadership roles, she learned how to lead others into rhythms and routines of mental wellness and self-care to safeguard from instability.
Brianna realizes we cannot avoid stress, but we can learn how to steward it in a way that grows not only us, but those around us.
What is Business X-Change? Allows business owners and their employees the opportunity to discuss pertinent topics, learn from local industry leaders and, most importantly, learn from each other. Business X-Change meets regularly throughout the year from 7:30 - 8:30am.
