Top 3 Takeaways

From the Source

“One of the biggest challenges of the workplace today is that we move so fast that we don't have true opportunities and we don't truly take time to ask how each other is doing.”

“If you're always in a hurry and you don't have time to truly pause and connect with people and ask them how they're doing, that might be a signal to you that you need to relook at your calendar and your priorities.”

“Although we love workshops and we love professional development, the magic isn't always in what we're delivering. The magic is just getting the people who are attending to set time on their calendar to get together, connect, reflect, and then ultimately grow.”

“I think a lot of times burnout comes from not having a chance to pause and reset a little bit. And I think what we're trying to do is give teams an opportunity to pause, reflect, and think about ‘How can I alleviate, even if it's just a little bit of stress?’”

“We need time to calm our minds down because oftentimes the things that are coming at us outpace our ability to really process them.”

“That accountability is so valuable too, when it comes to taking care of yourself. because I don't think as humans, we're naturally wired to do it on our own because we have that ingrained need to serve and to help others and to be successful and all these things.”

“We're in this gray area of all the things that we feel we should be doing. And then it just weighs us down so much the more and more we live in that space.”

“No matter what job you're in, you're always on that track to burnout. So it's up to you to find ways to constantly be reinvigorating your passion for your job.”
