In this Town Hall Meeting\, Richard Boehmcke breaks down why CPAs struggle to rest during and after demanding seasons\, what's actually happening in the body when you can't shut down\, and how to build a practical\, tiered system that works even on your worst weeks\n \nRichard Boehmcke is a board-certified health and wellness coach (NBC-HWC) and NASM-certified personal trainer based in Connecticut. He spent 20 years in client-facing roles across media and tech startups before redirecting that experience toward helping professionals build sustainable systems for sleep\, stress\, and recovery. He has delivered wellness workshops to more than 1\,000 participants and works with individuals and organizations through his practice\, Turtle Patience.Participants will leave with:\n \n\nAn understanding of the physiological reasons high-performing professionals can't shut off – and why willpower alone won't fix it. \nA framework for the transition from work to rest\, including why the absence of work is not the same as recovery. \nA three-tier wind-down system they can implement immediately – adaptable to full nights\, busy nights\, and nights when everything has gone sideways. \nSpecific\, evidence-based strategies for sleep environment\, consistency\, and recovery after a poor night's sleep. \nAwareness of how chronic sleep deprivation affects cognitive performance\, emotional regulation\, and decision-making quality – with direct relevance to professional judgment.\nYou must register to attend and receive CPE credit\n CLASS:PUBLIC END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
