    Have you ever thought about how your future career may impact your mental health? Entering the “real world” can be overwhelming, and research has shown that this transition may cause anxiety and stress (Jed Foundation, 2018). There are many important strategies that you can employ to prepare for this transition, such as accessing important campus resources – such as Counseling and Psychological Services and Career and Talent Development – to making a plan for your career transition.

    This Panther Alumni Week discussion aims to offer students perspective from a leader in hospitality on how to bridge the gap between career and mental health.
