PHOENIX LOUNGE
POP-UP FOR BURNOUT PREVENTION
Phoenix Lounge is a traveling 1-day event: part pop-up store, part networking hub, part fireside forum. We bring together founders, leaders, and innovators to share honest stories of burnout and recovery — and to explore what resilience looks like, from ancient wisdom to futuristic devices.
The Phoenix Lounge Founder Kati Torim
“Don’t burn out before you launch. Burnout costs 50–200% of a salary to replace one employee, drains $1 trillion a year in lost productivity, and drives 63% more sick leave long before people quit — the bottom line is simple: burnout is expensive, and only honest stories plus proven tools will change how teams and leaders build real resilience.”
The Cost of Burnout?
-
That’s the average cost of replacing one burned-out employee (recruitment, training, lost productivity). Prevention is always cheaper than re-hiring.
-
The World Health Organization estimates global productivity losses due to stress and burnout at a staggering figure. Companies pay the price in missed targets and stalled growth.
-
Employees who experience burnout tend to take more sick days, which increases direct health costs and disrupts workflow. Teams get stretched thin, and performance drops.
-
Burned-out employees actively seek new jobs, creating turnover risk and cultural erosion long before they submit their notice.
Pop-Up Store
Interactive space with tools, books, and devices for self-management, nervous system regulation, and biohacking.
Fireside Chats
Short, raw talks from founders and leaders on burnout, recovery, and reinvention. Panels featuring experts who bridge science, ancient practices, and AI-driven tools for focus and resilience.
Knowledge Sessions
From breathwork to biohacking, mindfulness to machine learning, participants leave with practical strategies for preventing burnout in their own lives and organizations.
Networking Lounge
Curated conversations with peers, founders, and changemakers. A safe space to connect around real challenges and solutions.
“Less individualism, more collectiveness will not erase identity but reveal interdependence as the true condition of freedom.”
