Simply Solving Cyber - Beth St.Clair

Simply Solving Cyber

Beth StClair joins us to talk about the important topic of burnout in cybersecurity. While not a cybersecurity expert herself, Teddy and Aaron had so many requests about bringing this important topic for the industry more into the light.
Beth is the Owner and Principal Consultant at Act Up Consulting.
You will learn a bit more of Beth's background in the show, but she was working as a consultant for a top firm. She had worked her way up and was seemingly doing well by most standards. At this time, she had the need to control everything. She thought being the hero meant solving every problem that came her way, alone. Yep, you needed something done? Beth was your gal.The result was not great. She felt disconnected, tired and burnt out. She felt like she was carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders. So when a friend of hers mentioned improvisational comedy class as a way to help Beth laugh and relax, she (hesitantly) agreed. With no previous theatre of performance experience and in her mid-thirties, Beth jumped into this new world. The decision ended up being one of the best ones of her life.

Take a listen and find out how Beth applied these new skills to managing through and beyond burnout.
