Life goes by at an alarming fast pace, and the volume of work we're expected to complete is ever-increasing. All over the world, people are spending far more than the traditional 9–5 hours getting their work done, week after week. While companies are trying to make workplace stress less of an issue, it still has a significant impact on employees. Frankly, taking regular breaks is something that doesn't get the amount of attention that it deserves. However, what happens when you decide to Pick You and no longer scribe to what the world is telling you? When you make the choice to do what your body is telling you to do. When you make the decision to do what is best for your mental health at all cost. Join me this week as I sit down with clinical social therapist, spoken word artist, and owner of Earnest Expression, Antoine Heard;as we discuss his journey of taking time to reset, recharge, and realignment.
