Before we can lead a meaningful life rich with purpose and pleasure, we must, must, must prioritize our own mental & emotional well-being.   In this episode, I chat with trauma-informed educational psychologist Emily Santiago and Founder of Center for Cognitive Diversity facilitated where I did my Reflective Supervision training, a large part of the framework for MTO’s Peer Conversation’s program.    Next Trauma-informed Peer Support training is Nov 14-15:   https://docs.google.com/document/d/1x5zSckdIYLsiUSkEkVl8C1HEJmNXUvlKCApGMc8GlLk/edit In this episode: How stressful living has become so normalized, we don’t even recognize how much stress we experience Making big life decisions that support a healthier lifestyle Why more than self-care, we need Collective Well-being How “emotional capacity building” is so critical to employees but overlooked by employers Why there’s not enough therapists in the world to support everyone in need & how Refective Supervisors are a scalable solution for emotional well-being. How Peer Conversations™ offers the missing support teams and leaders need to gain emotional capacity and resiliency.
