The Newcastle Marketing Meetup is an informal, friendly place for the marketers of Newcastle to meet, learn, and share knowledge with one another. Come in 'listen' not 'sell' mode 🙂

We'll be meeting back at the lovely Grainger House for this one, and we just want to get together, say hello, have a chat, and have a nice time.

Think of this as a community event, where the focus is very much on you meeting other people in a chilled out friendly space. We’ll chat over food and drink, listen to an inspirational speaker or two, chat some more, and go home buzzing with new contacts and new ideas.

Let’s have a lovely night in the company of some amazin’ people.

Speaker: Christina Lord, Energy Leadership Coach and Resilience Expert
Topic: Building Sustainable Resilience - Thriving in Marketing Without Burning Out

The marketing industry is facing a burnout crisis.
Recent research shows that over 60% of marketers feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, and disconnected from the work that once lit them up. With increasing demands, tight deadlines, constant digital connection, and the pressure to master an ever-expanding skillset, it's no wonder creativity and wellbeing are suffering.

We’re excited to welcome Christina Lord, Energy Leadership Coach and Resilience Expert, for an interactive session designed to help you prevent burnout, manage stress, and thrive, without sacrificing performance or passion.

Together, we’ll explore:

- Recognising Burnout Triggers. Spot early warning signs and understand how the unique pressures of marketing can erode wellbeing.
- Energy Leadership for Resilience. Learn how mindset, energy awareness and self-regulation can help you lead yourself through high-pressure moments with confidence.
- Building Your Toolkit. Discover practical, science-backed strategies like breathwork, micro-habits and energetic boundaries, to boost clarity, creativity and productivity.
- Creating a Support Network. Find ways to collaborate and stay connected so you can thrive in a fast-paced, ever-changing industry.

This session is your opportunity to redefine success in your career, one where energy, creativity and wellbeing coexist.

Christina Lord is the founder of Authentic Action Coaching. A Resilience Expert, Energy Leadership Coach, and Breathwork Facilitator, she is passionate about helping professionals and entrepreneurs burn bright in their zone of brilliance, without burning out.

Christina’s approach? Simple yet powerful self-regulation techniques that help you master stress before it masters you. By learning to harness your energy, you can build resourceful resilience, improve your ability to bounce back from challenges, and access a grounded sense of self-trust and confidence in the face of pressure.
