We're your wellness check-in team, whose goal is to remind you to think about wellness and make it a priority. We explore wellness concepts, including intertwined categories: Mental, Physical, Spiritual, Economic, Environmental, Artistic, Intellectual and Social. If we’re thriving in some facets but ignoring others, it affects our overall well-being. We don’t see wellness as a zero sum game. Instead, it's generated as we take care of ourselves and inspire others. Let’s be well together.

It's our final episode. It’s in a different format. John, Sheila and Elise each do a final sign off. Sheila and Elise tell us what they got out of making and listening to the podcast. John talks about the original objectives and how things changed over time. Conversations with amazing co-hosts and guests felt like getting a wellness degree of sorts. He refined his practical approach to achieving wellness and balance, then developed his strategic approach. It feels like the right time to stop. We thank each other and our listeners for what we made and enjoyed together.

E174 Richard Ellis Mental Wellbeing at Workplace
1. We view discipline as a skill, not a trait. It’s not something you're born with or without — it's something you can build with practice, like a muscle that grows stronger with use. Setbacks don't define your discipline; persistence does. Learning to forgive mistakes and keep trying helps you stay focused on long-term goals, making discipline more sustainable. 2. Interview – Richard Ellis emphasizes that workplace wellbeing fosters psychological safety, empowering employees to be creative, make mistakes, and fully engage. This supportive environment leads to reduced absenteeism, higher retention, and improved productivity. Organizations that invest in wellbeing programs often see a return on investment (ROI) between 1:5 and 1:10. His approach includes running tailored surveys to identify specific challenges and desires within a workplace, followed by customized programs integrating education, coaching, and strategic planning. These programs don’t just make employees feel better—they translate into measurable business gains. Richard also underscores the value of a long-term strategy and behavior-focused coaching, ensuring sustained improvements and adaptability over time. Rather than one-off workshops, he promotes 12-month commitments to ensure impact and accountability. 3. Running Popup – John had a surprising thought – that he is ready to die – leading to a feeling of lightness and upliftment. This realization transformed his perspective. He now views each moment as a precious bonus, embracing life with renewed appreciation and joy.

E173 Richard Ellis Burnout Symptoms and Help
1. In To Have and To Hold, Molly Millwood highlights how oxytocin deepens female bonds. Elise found this illuminating, relating it to her strong friendships and the emotional relief they provide in motherhood. Sheila affirmed this from personal experience, stressing the unique support women give each other—especially through life’s tougher transitions—making the science behind those connections feel all the more real. 2. Interview – Richard Ellise defines burnout as a state of chronic exhaustion, detachment, and a reduced sense of accomplishment. It often results from a mismatch between a person’s values and their work environment, combined with excessive workload, lack of control, and insufficient recognition. Burnout emerges gradually, not from a single stressful event, but from persistent demands that overwhelm an individual’s capacity to cope. To recover, individuals need time to rest, realign with their values, and reconnect with supportive relationships. Prevention involves creating healthier work environments, promoting autonomy, ensuring fair treatment, and fostering a sense of community. Recognizing early signs and setting boundaries are also crucial strategies. 3. Move That Body – According to David Amerland, setting fitness goals can drive progress and keep individuals accountable. Yet, he highlights the need to be kind to oneself, especially when targets are not met. This approach helps prevent discouragement and promotes a sustainable, enjoyable fitness journey, ultimately benefiting mental and physical health
