252: Align Your Work With Your Wellbeing

Have you ever considered how the work you do and the way you work could be different if you & all people put Wellbeing at the center?

Imagine if our culture embraced that all humans are designed differently, which means what supports our wellbeing - mind, body, heart, spirit - will be different. Therefore, the way we work, and the environments we work within need to be flexible, fluid and responsive to the different kinds of work styles required to empower and enable diverse humans to thrive.

Imagine a world in which we defined work not just by what we did to receive money, but all the ways in which we give our energy, care, and time to a system…including caregiving & creative expression…as well as the jobs & roles we play within organizations and professions.

In this episode, Christine and Jennifer explore 3 Realms to illuminate the way you are designed to work best, liberate you from what doesn't align, and then begin to take small but significant steps to bring your reality into alignment with your design now. We'll also explore and illuminate what must be present for you in the environments you work within in order for you to truly thrive.

Remember: You and I have the power to co-create culture. Our power starts with choosing to intentionally cultivate the culture of our individual place + reality. Then the culture of the family + relational systems we live in. Then the team ecosystem we work in. Then the organizational, community & social ecosystems we swim in.

Rather than wait for the big ecosystem to shift to creating a culture that creates work environments based on what we need as humans to cultivate and maintain a strong foundation of wellbeing...we can embrace our power of #HarmonicDefiance and make small shifts that lead to bigger shifts that bring how we work and where we work into alignment with all realms of our wellbeing.

Between now and the next episode, Christine and Jennifer invite you to contemplate the inquiry: What shift could you make to bring your work more into alignment with your design and wellbeing? Bonus invitation: SHARE this podcast with a friend, and invite them to conversate on the inquiry with you. Let’s Stay Light in community with fellow Wise Beings – join us!
