Welcome to Sustainably Human at Work

Welcome to the quest to become Sustainably Human at Work. I'm Liz Wiltsie and I will be your curator. Becoming sustainably human is tricky in today's workplace. There's so much pressure to be superhuman. And I'm not here for it. And my guess is if you've managed to make your way here, you're maybe not here for it either. So, what I've done is curated a set of folks that I admire to talk about some piece of their work that can help people become more sustainably human in the workplace. People ask me all the time, what do you mean sustainably human? Like, of course, we're human and I'm going to keep being human until I die. And really at the end of the day, sustainably human is about leaving work with energy. It's about having relationships in the workplace that don't make our lives worse. It's about being able to have meaningful conversations, even when they're difficult. It's about being able to grow as people. It's about not sacrificing half of our waking hours, because someone's decided we need to be perfect in the workplace. It's about leaving perfection behind and finding a way to live our lives. So I invite you to join me on this quest. Because I've got some fantastic folks who are able to weigh in and share some of their work with you. So here we go.All show notes live at 4needs.work/podcast.
