Episode 198: How to Address Corporate Wellness to Protect People, Purpose and Profits, with Princess Castleberry

People are the magic in every company. People are the center of wellness and risk management…We have to stop trivializing burnout and chronic stress and address corporate wellness. ~ Princess Castleberry Does your business have a company wellness plan?  Sometimes words like "wellness" begin to sound like static–annoying and with little meaning. But this week's guest on the Brilliantly Resilient podcast, Princess Castleberry, knows that ignoring corporate wellness means putting an organization's people, purpose and profits at risk. According to Princess, every leader must be a risk manager, and addressing employee wellness with actionable strategies can dramatically improve corporate and personal success. As a wellness and risk management consultant, Princess offers solutions to help leaders view wellness as compliance, inclusion and respect–all elements essential to team building and corporate success.  Here at Brilliantly Resilient, we recognize the value of implementing actionable strategies to reduce stress and improve decision making, professional success and quality of life.

All of those things are put in place so humans can be well.  Leaders can start by asking themselves three questions to begin to navigate wellness for themselves and their teams: How do you make decisions? How do you manage stress? How do you resolve and recognize conflict? The basic behavior chain is thoughts, feelings and actions. We have to learn to recognize how our triggers work. People suffer from decision fatigue. You have to trust your gut and divide your decision making into categories: Decisions where you can act fast. Decisions that must be delegated. Decisions that require deliberation–higher stakes decisions. Decisions to eliminate–any involving gossip or nonsense. Let's be Brilliantly Resilient together! XO, Mary Fran
