Lo Myrick - Mental Health, Leadership, and Peak Performance

Lo was even more amazing in person, than we ever imagined. Her energy, confidence, and zest for life are so contagious! I hope we can get her back to speak about other life/work skills at a future conference. She's truly the BEST at what she does & we consider ourselves blessed to have been graced by her presence and knowledge :) We are a non-profit in South Carolina (SCAOHN - SC Association of Occupational Health Nurses). Thank you Lo - so very much!

I invited Lo to come and address a group of collegiate athletic administrators on Mental Health and wellness. as part of a workshop that I hosted. Lo's presentation was incredibly well-received by the group of attendees and left everyone feeling more confident about themselves and better equipped to help others. Lo has a positivity and relatability that resonated strongly with our group. I look forward to the next time that I get to work with her and would strongly recommend her.

Lo is an incredibly insightful and talented communicator - she equipped our teams with strategies to use in the workplace and in our personal lives to achieve better mental health outcomes, understand and manage stress triggers, and equip ourselves for future growth.

Lo Myrick was key in reaching our student-athletes as she was a former collegiate swimmer! Lo came with a ton of positive energy, provided relevant data that the student-athletes could relate to, and had a ton of takeaways (including physical worksheets for the group). Her passion for the specific topics (Peak Performance and Leadership) was evident in the way she interacted with and provided easy/useful takeaways for the SAs in attendance to use relating to: guided meditation, setting boundaries (and tips to stick to those boundaries), the importance of taking time for yourself, and social media (to name a few). In a society where it is easy to become anxious, overwhelmed and be a 'yes' person, she made it very clear it is truly okay to prioritize oneself and mental health. Additionally, Lo stayed to visit with each round table after her 90-minute session to answer any questions the student-athletes may not have wanted to ask in front of the group (an additional 30+ minutes) and I thought that was really awesome of her to do as she was not asked of/required to do this. This just goes to show how Lo is an amazing human. I look forward to continuing to work with her in the future for other constituents within the conference.

Lo consistently provides an open and engaging environment for a group to work together and support one another. She pays attention to each person in a way that helps the entire group feel safe, confident, and respected. Lo makes this look easy, but I know from my own experience as a psychologist that it is not. I admire her ability to invite the group to go deeper, and to be a trusted guide throughout the process. Her energy is honest and engaging. I greatly admire and respect the work she does.

Lo listens to me. She receives data with an open mind and thinks outside the box. She helps me to see myself from a different point of view which allows me to open my mind to different possibilities in my healing process. She cares, and she is thoughtful. Never ever have I felt judged. I can tell Lo anything knowing that I will feel more clear afterwards. My life has gotten better with her help. So lucky to have found her.

Lo led an informal mental health discussion for a group of about 20 people. She was wonderful! I was particularly impressed with her ability to strike the right balance between delivering information and insights with engaging the group/audience throughout. In a short, 45-minute session, she shared insights that will help attendees identify and cope with stressors while understanding stress and wellness patterns in their lives. On top of all that, she was kind, gracious, and very easy to deal with before and following the event. I would recommend her to anyone.

My team raved about this session, felt it was grounding and engaging. Thank you Lo!

As a Senior Director, one of the major hurdles our team had to overcome in a remote working environment was to avoid burnout as our business increased. Lo developed a workshop that focused on the individual and encouraged each person to look inward on how they can maximize their time management to complete our clients work while still maintaining time for themselves. The workshop helped build awareness in the team and we look forward to future workshops to address new areas of focus as our business environment continues to evolve.

As a nonprofits in the human services sector, our staff members are under tremendous pressure to serve and care for our most fragile neighbors, and the pandemic increased this stress exponentially. Lo was a breath of fresh air - teaching us practical strategies to recenter, reconnect, and care for ourselves so that we can continue to provide great care for those who rely on us every day.
