In June, we hosted four packed-out sessions of Beat the Bots — and the feedback was clear: this workshop needs to come back.
So we’re bringing it back this August for a fresh round.
In this 45-minute live session, I’ll be breaking down what the Applicant Tracking System (ATS) actually looks for — and why strong resumes still get overlooked.
You’ll walk away with:
✔ A better understanding of how the ATS filters candidates
✔ Formatting mistakes that cause real problems
✔ Three simple updates that can boost your resume’s visibility immediatelyThis is designed for jobseekers, professionals making a pivot, professionals shifting industries, or federal employees looking to land their next role in the private sector. If you’ve been sending out applications and not hearing anything back — this is where we reset your strategy.

- Maybe It’s Not Burnout — It’s Your Soul Saying “Not This Way” | CRRN WorkshopLink visible for attendees
Note: To attend this event, you must be registered directly through the site to receive the link. https://www.worxksolutions.com/event-details-registration/maybe-its-not-burnout-its-your-soul-saying-not-this-way
What looks like burnout isn’t always about stress; it’s often your system signaling misalignment. A quiet, persistent nudge that something no longer fits, whether that’s your energy, your values, or the way you’re moving through your work and life.
This session with Kelly Irene, Founder of Most True You, is for professionals who are successful on paper — but exhausted behind the scenes — and wondering if there’s a better way.
You’ll learn how to recognize the signals of misalignment, explore what’s possible, and take your next aligned step forward toward clarity and self trust by finally listening to what your inner wisdom has been trying to say all along: "Not this way."
Key Takeaways:
- A new way to understand burnout — as a signal, not a flaw
- Tools to recognize when you're out of alignment (and what that really means)
- A practical approach to create more space, clarity, and fulfillment — without sacrificing your success
This session is part of the monthly workshop! Registration is free. Click here: https://www.worxksolutions.com/event-details-registration/maybe-its-not-burnout-its-your-soul-saying-not-this-way
