@AdamMGrant @TEDTalks @lizandmollie This is a perfect graphic to sum up the idea of effectively managing your energy - proactively restoring along the way, rather than waiting until your tank is on “E.”

I thought about 9/11 a lot when I was back east these past couple of weeks, which included time at Boston Logan. It’s the quiet tributes that remind us of what happened 23 years ago today. 🇺🇸

My annual week of being offline begins: annual trip to remote island in Maine. Time to have a slow cup of coffee in the late morning, still in my pj’s and do a lot of nothing. A time to recharge for my mental health and reconnect with my family. #MentalHealth #Disconnect

Taking vacation time? 50% of us aren't, says a study in @HarvardBiz. Vacations boost sleep, mood, creativity, and immune health, while offsetting work stress.

Supporting well-being isn't just good for people; it's key to workplace excellence.

In a post-pandemic world, our conventional work culture no longer fits. With a third of employees disengaged and nearly 20% actively unhappy, it's time for a systematic change. Thank you @HRMorning for including me in this article. https://t.co/PvV3GtOxOq

We evolved to move, yet modern life says 'sit'. Can't move all day? Stand for 2 minutes every hour! A @Stanford study suggests it can counter the effects of prolonged sitting. Dive deeper in my chat with @milenaregos on the #UnhustlePodcast: https://t.co/x9WwA7fHfP
