The Corporate Wellness Myth: Why Most Programs Fail & What Actually Works
Feeling exhausted, burned out, or like your company’s “wellness initiatives” are just another corporate checkbox? You’re not alone.
In this episode, Monique sits down with Liz Van Voorhis, founder of Fit Collective, to expose the flaws in traditional corporate wellness programs and what it actually takes to build resilient, thriving teams. They tackle the real reasons most wellness initiatives fail, why leadership must lead by example, and how prioritizing purpose over performance metrics creates sustainable change.

Why most corporate wellness programs are a total joke
The real reason employees don’t prioritize their health (hint: it’s not time)
Why top-down leadership buy-in is the missing puzzle piece
