Ep 26 - What's your Wellbeing plan, with Paul McGregor Beyond Consultation

    • Government

Today’s topic was inspired by two things that happened on the morning of recording this episode.

First, our original guest opened up about not being up to the recording session. Life was just too much at that moment.

Second, I was reading this fantastic report called Wellbeing Inspires Well-doing. The report looks at how changemakers’ inner wellbeing influences their work.

These two small things made me realise how important it is to look after your own wellbeing, especially if you are hoping to serve others. In short, if the oxygen mask pops down, make sure you put your own one on before you start helping other people.

It can be really easy to put other people's needs ahead of our own. Even more so now that we find ourselves in lockdown, possibly alongside family and loved ones.

So, if that sounds like something you can relate to, today's episode is for you.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

Why it’s important to put ‘protection barriers’ in place for our own wellbeing
Six practices that makes navigating complexity easier
How pausing and doing something for yourself can help you better serve others
