This Saturday, July 11th at 11am, Chalk the Walk: Library Edition! Help us add a little colour outside of the Stirling Library by designing and colouring on our sidewalks with chalk! There will also be sidewalk games to play, like hopscotch, and colouring pages to enjoy!
A practical community talk about what happens when working hard, pushing through, and carrying responsibility stops feeling productive and starts becoming survival mode.
Brad will discuss how burnout can show up in everyday life through irritability, exhaustion, anxiety, poor sleep, shutdown, resentment, and feeling like you can never slow down. This talk is for anyone building a business, raising a family, working long hours, farming, caregiving, or trying to hold everything together while feeling worn down behind the scenes.
The focus will be on recognizing the signs earlier, understanding why slowing down can feel so hard, and learning realistic ways to keep going without burning yourself out.
Create, craft & enter your creations into the Stirling Agricultural Fair! You are invited to join in on the fun hands-on crafting where creativity takes center stage! Express your imagination, and prepare your creations for display at the fair. Everyone is welcome to create something special!
Come craft with us and see your work shine at the fair!
