#146 - Improving Your Health and Wellness - Techie Edition w/ Colleen Fotsch
This is a bit of a different episode, but it's a topic that is long overdue for discussion. Between long hours sitting in front of a monitor, "hustle culture", and prevalent alcohol and drug use, our profession is literally killing us.
The negative effects on health and wellness among techies are insane. We've seen our friends go to the ER from stress, diet, and lifestyle-related emergencies. We've lost other friends along the way.
Colleen Fotsch is uniquely qualified to discuss this issue. She is used to operating at the highest levels of sports, being an NCAA D1-champion swimmer, multiple-time CrossFit Games athlete and coach, and former US Bobsled team member. She also works as a data analyst and part-time coach for Opex, a leader in fitness education coaching (she's Joe's coach).
It's time we wake up and look at how we can improve our health and wellness, and bring our best selves to our work and life.
