Speaking at the Biohacking Scarring Alopecia’s Conference — Burnout Beneath the Surface

Dr. Jacqueline Nelms

Why This Event Is a Game-Changer

The Biohacking Scarring Alopecia Conference brings together leading trichologists, holistic practitioners, and industry innovators to explore cutting-edge science and whole-person care strategies. While the focus is on reversing and managing hair and scalp disorders, it is also about empowering the professionals behind the chair, the ones holding space for clients navigating deep, personal, and emotional journeys.

My Session — Burnout Beneath the Surface: The Emotional Cost of Caring in Trichology

I will be delivering a session specifically designed for heart-centered professionals in this field.

During my talk, we will explore:

  • The Invisible Weight of     Caregiving — how supporting clients through identity-impacting hair loss can take an emotional toll.
  • Recognizing Burnout Before It     Breaks You — subtle mental and emotional signs that often go unnoticed in service-based professions.
  • Building Resilience & Healthy     Boundaries — practical tools to protect your mental wellbeing while continuing to deliver compassionate, high-impact care.

This conversation matters because the beauty and wellness industries, especially those dealing with hair loss and identity, often pour into others while quietly depleting themselves. I want every attendee to leave with strategies to reclaim energy, maintain passion, and lead with strength.

Why This Work Matters to Me

After decades in healthcare leadership and earning my Doctorate in Health Sciences with a focus on organizational behavior and leadership, I have witnessed how professionals committed to serving others can silently suffer from stress and burnout. Through my work at Mindful Elevation, I empower leaders and high-impact professionals to thrive mentally, emotionally, and professionally, without sacrificing their own wellbeing.
