Hey, beautiful humans! This week on the podcast we're continuing our journey into mental health in HR and leadership, especially following last week's conversation on vicarious trauma. Sadly, this week, we faced the loss of an employee, reminding us just how emotionally taxing this work can be. Today, we dive deeper into the practice of noticing—paying attention not just to our feelings but where we hold tension in our bodies. I'll walk you through a simple exercise to relax those tight spots and release stress throughout the day. Whether you're a leader guiding others or just trying to manage your own stress, learning to breathe, relax, and be present can be transformative. I challenge you this week: notice the tension, breathe into it, and let it go. And, as a bonus, try guiding someone else through this same practice. Trust me, it's a game changer in one-on-one meetings. Let's take 1% steps toward moving from hyper-reactive to highly regulated. You're doing great—keep going, and I'll see you next week!
