There’s two things we can all agree we’ve desperately needed over the past year: humor and a way to combat burnout.

At this year’s Women in Retail Leadership Summit, you’ll hear from two authors who recognized this need, as well as three more women who have turned their experiences into books about achieving your goals, advancing your career, and turning ideas into accomplishments.

You can find these five authors in Miami participating in workshops, serving as career coaches, and sharing their personal success stories through keynote speeches at the Women in Retail Leadership Summit, held Oct. 11-13. Registration for the event is now open.

1. Dr. Amy Shah, I’m so Effing Tired

An integrative medical doctor, Dr. Amy Shah takes a scientific approach to addressing the constant fatigue women feel. Shah’s book, “I’m so Effing Tired: A Proven Plan to Beat Burnout, Boost Your Energy + Reclaim Your Life,” focuses on three energy areas: your gut, your hormones, and your immune system.

In her book, Shah created a program addressing how we eat, when we eat, and how we manage stress to boost energy and reclaim our lives. “I’m so Effing Tired” includes hormone-balancing recipes, stress-busting exercises, and tips for the best times to eat to have the most energy.

You can find Amy discussing beating burnout at the Lunch and Holistic Leadership Workshop on Tues., Oct. 12.

2. Naomi Bagdonas, Humor, Seriously: Why Humor is a Secret Weapon in Business and Life

Naomi Bagdonas, a lecturer at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and an executive coach, teaches a course with Dr. Jennifer Aaker to help business minds have more joy in their work and lives. The two women turned their class into a best-selling book, “Humor, Seriously: Why Humor is a Secret Weapon in Business and Life.”

The book takes a scientific approach to humor, drawing on findings from behavioral scientists, world-class comedians and inspiring business leaders to show how humor works and how it can be used to make strong first impressions, deliver difficult feedback, and foster cultures where levity and creativity can thrive.

Bagdonas will give the closing keynote speech on why humor is a superpower at work and in life on Wed., Oct. 13.
