Evolving to your professional best is a journey that will lead many of us to assess the need to honor your mental wellness. Mental wellness awareness is year-round, and small actions can ignite transformation to take better care of ourselves. As we navigate the ebbs and flows of our careers, we sometimes need to heal from career grief, perceived lost opportunities, unexpected life events, overcome self-doubt, and dismiss the imposter syndrome.

Caitlin Magidson, NCC, LCPC is kicking off the series by discussing Well-being in Life & Career.

Caitlin integrates her mental health counseling and coaching specialties as she guides clients through personal and professional life transitions to enhance their overall well-being. Caitlin previously worked as the Assistant Director of Coaching & Education at the Johns Hopkins Carey Business School. She has coached executive leaders through Hopkins’ Academy for Women and Leadership and The Academy for Health Care Leadership and Management.
