Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith

Change is inevitable, but exhaustion doesn’t have to be. In seasons of constant transition, many leaders and teams find their energy depleted, their focus scattered, and their motivation fading. Yet with the right approach, change can be navigated with clarity, strength, and sustainability. In this engaging and research-informed presentation, Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith draws from her experience as a physician and her pioneering work on the 7 Types of Rest® to reveal why traditional approaches to resilience often fall short. She introduces a restorative framework that goes beyond pushing through fatigue, equipping participants to identify the specific types of depletion impacting their performance and well-being. Attendees will walk away with practical strategies to restore energy, strengthen emotional capacity, and build resilience that endures, even in the midst of ongoing change. The result is not just the ability to cope, but the capacity to lead, adapt, and thrive without burnout.
