NAA’s Mental Health Awareness Week: Spaces That Support Us

Date and Time: May 18 | 2:30 PM

Price: Free 

The spaces we move through each day quietly shape how we think, feel and function—often more than we realize. In this engaging session, we’ll explore how insights from neuroscience and psychology can guide design choices that support mental health, resilience and connection.

From color and lighting to sound, texture and layout, you’ll learn how everyday design elements influence mood, focus and overall wellbeing. We’ll share practical, real‑world examples to help you create spaces that feel welcoming, calming and supportive—whether in amenity spaces, offices or residential communities.

Together, we’ll connect research‑backed principles to actionable ideas you can apply right away, helping you design environments where people feel comfortable, supported and at home.

NAA’s Mental Health Awareness Week: High Responsibility, Hidden Distress

Date and Time: May 19 | 2:30 PM

Price: Free 

When someone performs well, it is easy to assume everything is fine. In reality, leaders and high‑impact team members often carry emotional strain beneath the surface. This session focuses on why recognizing and supporting these individuals is essential to long‑term stability and success.

We’ll talk through subtle, often overlooked signals of distress and share ways leaders can create open, supportive environments where concerns are addressed before they escalate. You’ll leave with practical ideas for proactive check‑ins, clearer communication and fostering trust within your teams.

By shifting from reacting to problems to preventing them, organizations can build resilience, protect their leaders and create healthier, more sustainable workplaces.

NAA’s Mental Health Awareness Week: When Performance Pressure Becomes Emotional Exhaustion

Date and Time: May 20 | 2:30 PM

Price: Free 

High achievement often hides high stress. In this session, we’ll explore how sustained performance demands can impact emotional wellbeing long before results begin to slip.

You’ll learn how to recognize early signs—small shifts in mood, communication or engagement—and why regular support, intentional planning and honest conversations matter. Rather than redefining success as “pushing through,” this session encourages a healthier, more sustainable approach to leadership.

Join us to explore practical ways to protect momentum and mental health—so individuals and teams can thrive over the long term.

NAA’s Mental Health Awareness Week: The Hope Factor

Date and Time: May 21 | 2:30 PM

Price: Free 

Hope plays a much bigger role in the workplace than we often realize—it shapes how people face challenges, stay motivated and keep moving forward. In this session, we’ll connect hope directly to performance, resilience and meaningful leadership.

You’ll learn how everyday leadership behaviors—from transparency to realistic goal‑setting—can strengthen hope even during demanding seasons. We’ll also explore how workplace culture and systems can either reinforce optimism or quietly wear it down.

By intentionally supporting hope, leaders can reduce burnout, strengthen purpose and help their teams stay connected to what’s next.

WVAA Webinar: Rise & Recharge - A No-BS Guide to Sustainable Self-Care Plans

Date and Time: November 17th, 2026; Noon – 1pm EST

Price: Free

Let’s be honest – self-care isn’t just facials and meditation apps. If your “self-care plan” only lasts until the next work crisis or stressful situation, it’s time for a serious upgrade. And if you travel for work, well, that makes it even hard to keep self-care consistent and meaningful.

Burnout is real, and so is the need for an ongoing self-care strategy that actually works in your life. Join us to learn how to build a real, sustainable self-care plan that keeps you energized, focused, and thriving through the stresses of life – even the big ones – without the guilt. We’ll cut through the fluff, get honest about temporary fixes, and dig into how to determine what self-care strategies will sustain YOUR mental wellness. It’s time to stop running on empty. Walk away with the tools to create your very own custom self-care plan that sticks because YOU are your most important ASSET!
