Life Chat EMC National Life

This is the final episode in our 2023 agent education campaign, Healthy Life, where we are striving to improve lives through balance and wellness. Thank you to all our guests that joined us for the podcast and taught us how to live a well-rounded life. In this episode, we go back in time and highlight the best moments of each wellness topic. We hope you enjoyed following along in this journey of finding harmony and balance in your lives.

Spiritual wellness involves finding purpose, meaning, and connection in life. Enlighten yourself with our latest podcast episode featuring special guest Lily Allen-Duenas, yoga instructor with Power Life Yoga and founder of the Wild Yoga Tribe.

Intellectual wellness is a state of being, inspiring curiosity within yourself and the world around you. Rebecca Cloud, adult services librarian with the Des Moines Public Library, encourages listeners to try new things and be open to new ideas. Her passion for learning sparks a desire to spend time on our own intellectual wellness, creating balance and harmony in our lives.

Environmental wellness invokes a respect for nature and other environments, such as our home and workspaces, which in turn benefit our health and well-being. For this episode on environmental wellness, we interviewed Danny Nielsen, photographer and videographer for Wake County in Raleigh, North Carolina. With a background in environmental science, Danny has a passion for nature and the world around him. Join life insurance advocates Anna Coleman and Laura Timmins as they discuss with Danny practical ways that we can incorporate environmental wellness while creating harmony and balance in our own lives.

Social wellness is the ability to relate to and connect with other people in our world. This month’s wellness topic introduces us to Nathan Beacom and the Lyceum Movement. Drawing on a history over 150 years old, The Lyceum Movement hosts social, festive events that explore the big ideas of art, philosophy, history and more. In an age where so much of our life is consumed by the anxiousness of online life, Nathan is creating spaces where neighbors can slow down, meet face to face, and have better conversations. Join Nathan along with life insurance advocates Laura Timmins and Anna Coleman from EMC National Life as they delve into the world of social wellness.

This month, we’re focusing on the occupational component of total wellness. Occupational wellness is the ability to achieve a balance between work and leisure in a way that promotes health, a sense of personal satisfaction and is financially rewarding. Join Ceyda Nazli, a wellness specialist from EMC, and life insurance advocates Laura Timmins and Karly O’Connor-Pelz from EMC National Life as they discuss practical ways to enhance your occupational wellness.
