She is widely praised for her innovative perspective on stress. With events such as the week before stress, Stresstival, and the NK Stress, as well as her columns in Wendy Magazine, Suzan offers a different perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, Suzan served on the board of the International Stress Management Organization (ISMA), tasked with addressing the image problem of stress.<\/p>\n<p>Suzan is also the bestselling author of the book &#8220;Crazy about Stress \u2013 but not always&#8221; and regularly appears in media outlets ranging from BNR, NPO Radio, and NRC to Jeugdjournaal (Children&#8217;s News) and Editie NL.<\/p>\n<p>Stress is her passion. She never stops learning and is never tired of being amazed by the sublime solutions our stress system offers to cope with all the challenges and threats in life. This versatile stress sociologist offers a different perspective on stress.<\/p>\n<p>Together with a team of other stress researchers, Suzan developed educational programs, training courses, and an in-company program. All this knowledge is now available through The School of Stress.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button button-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=AV7NCymSy70\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"external\" data-fancybox=\"video\"><i class=\"fab fa-youtube\"><\/i> View an impression of her<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Video&#8217;s &amp; Podcasts for inspiration<\/h3>\n<div class=\"two-col extra-padding-bottom\">\n<p><a class=\"fancybox video\" title=\"Another sound on stress - Radio 1 (Dutch)\" href=\"https:\/\/theschoolofstress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/Suzan-op-radio-1.mp4\" data-fancybox=\"video-extra\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2177 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"Suzan op Radio 1\" width=\"502\" height=\"282\" data-src=\"https:\/\/theschoolofstress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/suzan-radio-1-thumb.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"fancybox video\" href=\"https:\/\/theschoolofstress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/stresstival.2023-aftermovie.mp4\" data-fancybox=\"video-extra\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2178 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"video still from the Stresstival 2023 aftermovie with Suzan Kuijsten, Lucia Rijker and Ingmar Creutzburg\" width=\"502\" height=\"282\" data-src=\"https:\/\/theschoolofstress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/stresstival.2023-aftermovie-thumb.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bnr.nl\/podcast\/wetenschap-vandaag\/10507660\/stress-op-de-werkvloer-is-zo-slecht-nog-nie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2333 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"BNR Science Today\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" data-src=\"https:\/\/theschoolofstress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/f6e397733ff862ad568827fd11f2ccbb777acc1a.jpg.webp\"><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What we offer<\/h2>\n<p>The School of Stress is the place to go if you want to improve stress management in your organization\u2014and for yourself.
