"Carolyn led our team through an awesome, interactive session on workplace mindfulness. She took the time to help us understand what mindfulness is (and is not), the benefits to each of us as individuals, and the staggering business impacts. She also led us through a mindfulness exercise and explained how we can incorporate “micro-practices” into our workday. The information she shared was so relevant, and the exercise was immediately impactful to everyone on the call. Carolyn’s expertise, passion, and relatability make her an invaluable asset to any team or individuals who want to reduce exhaustion, disengagement, and burnout. Thank you Carolyn!"

"Carolyn McGrath hosted a live Mindfulness session for our JC4e (Johnson Controls for Equality) Business Resource Group during our Pride Month of events. It was my favorite teams meeting of the year! She taught us the fundamentals of what mindfulness is and is not, how stress can affect us on a physical level leading to anxiety, focus impairment, and ultimately burnout. She then told us that mindfulness as a tool can help reduce that stress, strengthen our focus, lower our blood pressure, and help us improve our sleep and communication. Carolyn led the group through two mindfulness sessions, closing our eyes, taking deep breaths and visualizing ourselves as a mountain, facing constant change and yet still standing, foundation strong. I felt better after and was inspired to investigate mindfulness further on my own - now that I know it’s a lot more than just my apple watch telling me to breathe.”
