‘’Your work is important, it is, but you are more important than your work!’’ – Nicole Mixdorf.

Welcome back to Happier at Work! Joining Aoife this week is special guest Nicole Mixdorf – chief wellness officer at Balanced by Nature, who was recently crowned the most influential woman in Corporate Wellness Services throughout the US.

Workplace stress is a topic many listeners will relate to, and today’s show will focus on why your wellbeing and mental health matter. In this episode, Nicole will share her transformational journey of climbing the corporate ladder for over a decade, experiencing intense feelings of burnout whilst juggling major stressors that ultimately led to debilitating health effects. After taking time to heal her mind and body, Nicole launched Balanced by Nature, a corporate health and wellness firm that offers award-winning programs that support employees physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

‘’There's a reason our company is called Balanced by Nature. When we have all these stressful, crazy moments in our day, the only way to bring that equilibrium to balance, is by giving yourself enough of those nurturing quiet moments to balance it out.’’ – Nicole Mixdorf.
