Certified Wellness Practitioner by National Wellness Institute & Certified Life Coach. Speaker & Educator
Workplace wellness programs work when 1 - the program is tailored to the unique needs of the employees involved. 2 - it’s not “assigned” to one person or team to change culture. 3 - It’s about helping people feel well enough to be their best in their environment, whatever that environment is. We’ve tried promoting an approach of not letting workplace stressors (people, workloads, culture) affect us at home and vice versa, leaving our home stressors at the door. But this has gotten more and more difficult for us. And I think rightfully so as we live 50% of our time at work for those who work full time. Separating our two worlds as if it is a switch to be turned off and on is unrealistic. Our wellbeing is the very essence of our being, and we are beings at work and at home. Its time to bridge the two. “Today, workers demand more than just a paycheck — It’s not just about ticking off boxes, it’s about creating a culture where employees feel empowered to prioritize self-care without fear of repercussions” The issue is no longer a negligible one. #mentalhealthatwork #mentalhealthmatters #wellness #wellbeing #employeewellbeing
"There’s no magic app to make people happier at work. Becoming a more mentally healthy organization is a commitment to change the fundamentals, and it starts with leadership."
