With over 20 years of experience in corporate wellness, Jen has a lot to share — helping your organization become a place that your employees are excited to be a part of.
From the TEDx description:
The number one reason people don’t take care of themselves is time and I want people to recognize that’s a fallacy. This barrier hits women the hardest, as they are usually the ones working, taking care of a family and putting themselves on the back burner. In this talk, Jen will take you through the many ways to take some adult “time outs” in order to live to your highest potential.
There are some serious demands placed on your employees. Between their work, personal lives, and all that they want to accomplish, the demands are never-ending.
Put these demands on top of the COVID experience, and it’s a recipe for burnout.
The reality is these demands aren’t going away anytime soon. Since the pace and intensity of life is not likely to change, it’s more important than ever to learn the skill of resilience.
Resilience is the skill of adapting well in the face of adversity, threats, or significant sources of stress.
Although some people tend to be more resilient than others, more than five decades of research point to the fact that resilience is built by attitudes, behaviors and social supports that can be adopted and cultivated by anyone.
In this keynote, Jen helps participants uncover their stress-based behaviors, what’s driving them, and offers various strategies to strengthen their resilience.
“The world will ask you who you are, and if you don’t know, the world will tell you.” – Carl Jung
The concept of work-life balance is particularly important in today’s fast-paced and demanding work environment, where technology has blurred the lines between work and personal life.
The pressure to constantly be available and productive can lead to burnout and stress, affecting both our mental and physical health.
As workers across every sector face burnout and employers navigate an ever-evolving landscape of work, it begs the question, “is work-life balance actually possible?”
While it can be difficult to achieve perfect balance between work and personal life, there are many strategies that can help individuals find a greater sense of harmony and fulfillment.
In addition, organizations that prioritize employee wellbeing and offer support for work-life balance initiatives are more likely to attract and retain top talent, foster a positive company culture, and boost overall productivity and profitability.
In this interactive keynote, Jen will take participants on a journey to determine their priorities, uncover what’s creating the overwhelm, and exploring what’s stopping them from the work-life balance they crave.
The changes our world has seen in the past few years forced employers to reconsider the importance of employee wellbeing.
But with the pandemic now in the rearview mirror, organizations are getting back to “normal”, and higher priorities have caught the attention of decision makers.
So how can you refocus their attention on wellbeing?
The key is to balance the needs of your changed employees with the business goals of your company.
As wellbeing professionals, we need to use all that we learned during the pandemic and create a relevant approach that reflects today’s world.
In this keynote, Jen will walk participants through how to shift the business case of wellbeing to meet the current times and explore three ways to redesign wellbeing to make your efforts relevant.
You’ll walk away from this talk with tangible ways to have your wellbeing efforts match the needs of today’s organizational landscape.
When you hear the word “wellness”, what comes to mind?
Your mind may quickly shift to exercise and healthy eating.
Although diet and exercise are a part of wellness, solely focusing on these factors are a detriment to your organization and frankly, won’t address the underlying causes of poor employee wellbeing.
Workplaces are full of wellbeing detractors that often go unseen.
Things like…feeling overwhelmed because the company goals and priorities keep shifting, a lack of career growth within the company, reporting to a leader who doesn’t value their contribution, and personal stressors that cloud their mental focus at work.
If these invisible drivers are ignored, employee wellbeing is negatively impacted. And no amount of deep breathing classes can make up for an ineffective boss.
In this keynote, Jen will address why an organization should care about the wellbeing of their employees and what that means in our current climate.
She’ll walk participants through a helpful framework that widens the lens of traditional wellness and explores the idea that workplace wellbeing is a collaborative effort.
