Truckee Chamber Lunch and Learn - Feel Alive Again: Recovering From Burnout
Join us for our September Lunch & Learn, Feel Alive Again: Recovering from Burnout, presented by Brent Freeman, entrepreneur, TEDx speaker, and author of the forthcoming book The Alchemy of Joy. Brent has guided thousands of high-achievers around the world, from company teams to leadership organizations like EO and YPO, through the same shift he'll lead in this session: why the burnout quietly draining today's workplaces isn't a time-management problem but a nervous-system one, and what actually reverses it.
This session is built on The Alchemy of Joy, Brent's neuroscience-backed framework for helping high performers recover their energy, focus, and drive without slowing down or burning out. Drawing on two decades of building and scaling companies, and the collapse that forced him to rethink everything, Brent will break down why willpower and "just do less" advice never stick, and teach the science-based practices behind his Joyful Operating System® that retrain the brain and body for resilience. This isn't a talk you only listen to; expect a live reset you can feel in the room.
Attendees will leave with practical, research-backed tools they can use the very next morning, including a 90-second technique to calm the nervous system on demand, no apps, retreats, or major time commitment required. It's the same work Brent delivers to founders, executives, and teams worldwide, distilled into one powerful midday session. Whether you're a leader whose stress sets the tone for your team or an employee trying to stay sharp without running on empty, you'll walk away with a clear, doable path to feeling alive again, at work and beyond.
