Stress is contagious—but so is calm. In Recharge, I shared why stress management is something leaders should learn not only for themselves, but for their teams.

In an article I wrote for @Forbes, I expand on how small techniques can ripple into a healthier culture. 🌊

What helps you recharge when stress runs high?

Employee support isn’t optional—it’s transformative. In my bestselling book, Recharge, I talked about how prioritizing well-being shifted how I lead.

In my Forbes piece, I explain why support programs build more than morale—they build trust. 🌟

What’s one way you’ve felt supported at work?

Return to office ≠ return to normal.

Workplace structure matters—but so does mental health. In Recharge, I shared why flexibility and stability both play a role in creating balance.

In my @Forbes article, I explore how leaders can design work that supports people, not just processes. 🌱

What helps you most—flexibility or structure?

In Recharge, author David Ko argues that we need to give up the stigma of talking about mental health issues at the workplace, and use technology to help us monitor our mental wellbeing, instead of letting it add up to our stress levels.

How do we restore our energy when everything feels like a lot?

A thing I learned advising startups that generalizes: people get the most upset when you tell them true things they wish were false.
