Being self-employed often offers more flexibility in terms of working hours and location, which can lead to better work-life balance and reduced stress, whilst being your own boss allows you to make decisions independently, giving you a sense of control over your work and career direction.

However, working alone without colleagues can lead to feelings of loneliness and isolation, impacting mental wellbeing and self-employment often comes with financial instability and irregular income, which can lead to stress and anxiety about the future.

By attending this free event you'll learn how to establish clear boundaries between work and personal life to prevent burnout and maintain balance. Discover how to build a support network of fellow self-employed individuals, mentors, or industry groups to combat feelings of isolation and prioritize self-care activities such as exercise, relaxation, and hobbies to manage stress and promote mental wellbeing.

Hear from our guest speaker Maria Mander, Founder of ‘Mander Wellbeing’ who provides Wellbeing Consultancy to create a well & high performing workforce, and a great place to work. Maria’s insights on wellbeing are regularly seen through her writing, podcasts and speaking engagements at conferences, as well as being a guest panellist.
