“The things that you like best, and value most in your life, already reflect - at a gut level - what makes your life meaningful.” That is a key message from Prof Michael F Steger, a renowned expert in positive psychology and a global authority on the science of meaning, shared right at the start of this episode of the Working on Wellbeing podcast. We may experience meaning differently from one another, and even differently from one day to the next in our own lives, yet each person's unique experience of meaning is, according to today's expert, valid. And interestingly, despite this variation, research has revealed patterns and phenomena that can help us to better understand how people connect with a sense of meaning in life. In this episode, Prof Steger - Director and Founder of the Center for Meaning and Purpose at Colorado State University - joins our host, Sarah Cunningham, to explore how people come to understand, create, and sustain meaning in their lives and work. Drawing on insights from his impressive body of research, he explains that there are three key elements that underpin our sense of meaning: significance, coherence, and purpose. Michael brings these ideas to life with relatable examples for each component and suggests important ways that businesses can help employees pursue truly purpose-driven and meaningful work. If you're interested in what makes life feel worthwhile, and how this connects to our wellbeing both in and out of work, you won't want to miss this conversation! *** We are all Working on our Wellbeing daily, but not everyone has access to the latest cutting-edge research into the science of wellbeing … until now.

On the launch day of their new book, ‘Why Workplace Wellbeing Matters', Prof Jan-Emmanuel De Neve and Dr George Ward join host, Sarah Cunningham, to explore the key research behind the book, and discuss why wellbeing matters for every workplace. Going beyond the argument that looking after the wellbeing of employees is a moral imperative for any organisation, Jan and George reveal why an investment in improving employee wellbeing is also the savvy approach for business success. From improved productivity to increased talent attraction and retention, and even stronger financial and stock market performance, work wellbeing – their evidence shows – is no longer a nice-to-have, but rather a business imperative. In addition to being the co-founder of the World Wellbeing Movement, Prof De Neve is Director of the Wellbeing Research Centre at the University of Oxford, where Dr Ward is a Research Fellow. The two leading wellbeing science experts first met at University College London in 2011, where Jan supervised George's Master's thesis exploring the relationship between economic growth and happiness. Since then, they have developed a strong research partnership, published multiple high-end academic papers, and now this ground-breaking book, which is a must-read for all business leaders. Explore the most compelling findings from nearly 15 years of research together and uncover why prioritising workplace wellbeing isn't just the right thing to do, but the smart thing to do. If you're trying to convince your Chief Financial Officer that investing in employee wellbeing is a business imperative, then this episode is a must-listen, and Jan and George's new book is a must-buy!

In this episode, host Sarah Cunningham sits down with two inspiring leaders in the world of workplace wellbeing: Jen Fisher and KeyAnna Schmiedl. They share their personal and professional journeys, offering a refreshing perspective on what it means to create workplaces which truly put people first. Jen Fisher is a best-selling author, award-winning podcaster and influential speaker. Formerly Deloitte US's first Chief Wellbeing Officer, she is a preeminent expert on work wellbeing, and we are thrilled that she has recently joined the World Wellbeing Movement as our US Brand Ambassador. KeyAnna is Workhuman's Chief Human Experience Officer, and a leading voice on bringing human connection, belonging, and recognition to work wellbeing.

She has also featured on Fortune's 40 Under 40 list and was named a DEI Trailblazer by Business Insider. This episode tackles a pressing question: how can organisations prevent employee burnout and instead promote human sustainability and wellbeing? Together, we unpack the organisational barriers that stand in the way of progress, uncovering some of the root causes of poor workplace wellbeing, and urging leaders to stop over relying on individual level interventions that add more to an employees' (already very long) to-do lists. We discuss the essential ‘wellbeing leadership skillset' - skills that can be taught to leaders so that they are properly equipped to foster wellbeing and build happy and productive teams. Whether you're leading a team or advocating for change within your organisation, this conversation offers actionable insights to help workplaces move toward healthier, happier, and more sustainable futures. *** We are all Working on our Wellbeing daily, but not everyone has access to the latest cutting-edge research into the science of wellbeing … until now.

Jeremy's Chivalry and Infatuations.by senorlongo. Listen to the ► Podcast at Connected.Chapter 1.I think I was in fifth grade when the first Harry Potter movie came out. My buddies Ted and Josh begged me to see it with them and since we were our own version of the Three Musketeers I agreed. We were into the movie maybe a half hour when I looked over at them. They were really into it. I could see the rapt expressions on their faces. Me? Well, let me put it this way; if I was texting I would have written “LMFAO.” I couldn't let my buddies see me but I was definitely laughing myself silly inside. Robes? Wands? Messenger Owls? Hogwarts School of Magic? What a crock! And believe me, I should know. When other kids were learning the “Alphabet Song” and “Twinkle Twinkle” I was learning my first spells. I'm a wizard. My dad, a top executive at a Fortune 100 corporation, is a full-blown warlock, something I hope to attain when I turn 21 like he and my grandfather before him did. You'd be surprised how many key people in business and politics are warlocks and witches. We even had a recent president and his wife among our numbers. My mom is a witch with a lot of magic at her disposal, but instead of working she's a stay at home mother.I always try to use my magic for good. It's something my parents insist on, and so far I've only hurt two people, but in both cases it was for a really good reason. In fourth grade a kid named Alan Hamilton was bullying all the other kids, stealing their lunch money. Alan was a lot bigger than all of us having been retained in primary school at least once that we knew of, but probably more than once judging from his obvious stupidity. One morning while Ted, Josh, and I were walking to school Alan cut us off with his bike. Throwing it to the ground he turned on us as Ted and Josh tried to retreat. I just pointed at Alan, whispered an illusion spell, and stood my ground. When Alan finished turning he turned white with fright; facing three king cobras was not anything he could have anticipated. When he ran back to his bike another spell made him trip, getting tangled in the bike frame, and break his leg. I caught a lot of shit from my mom about that but Alan's bullying days were over.The other incident took place in eleventh grade when Sarah Cunningham was bragging about how big her tits were in front of poor Mary Patricia O'Brien while she teased Mary Patricia mercilessly about being flat-chested. What the hell did she expect? Mary Patricia (MP to me) was a lifelong friend who lived only two doors down from us and her mother was as flat as an ironing board. I walked over to the girls. “Really nice of you, Sarah,” I interjected. “You're a real bitch.” I put a protective arm around MP and walked her away as she broke down into tears. Time for some magic, I thought. I turned MP to me and unbuttoned two buttons on her blouse.“Jeremy! What are you doing?” MP exclaimed.“We have an old family custom; a superstition, really,” I told her as I moistened my thumbs in my mouth. I put one thumb on each of her “breasts” and told her, “Think about them growing. I'll do the same and, just maybe, it will work.” I closed my eyes and scrunched up my face like I was really concentrating. What I was really doing was reciting a growth spell; MP was going to have tits, and really good ones, if I had anything to do with it! I turned toward Sarah and did the same to her with one big difference. A growth spell has to be turned off or it will go on forever. Looking at MP's frame I figured that somewhere between a B and C cup would make her look really hot so that's where I stopped her. Sarah; well, I never did turn her off. She wanted big tits and she was going to have them.Three weeks later; just days after her eighteenth birthday and a week after mine; we were on the way home from school. MP and I walked the last few steps to our homes. “Jeremy,” she whispered as though she had a secret, “please come over in a few minutes. I have something to show you.” MP and I are the oldest students in our grade. The school district has a cutoff date of December 1st for kindergarten enrollment. A child born on November 30th can start kindergarten in September at age four. Born just one day later and you have to wait until the following year no matter how smart you might be. That's why we were eighteen while many of our friends were barely sixteen.She turned and ran to her house. I looked at her, totally confused. Before I could react further I got a telepathic message from Mom telling me she needed me in the kitchen. That's one of the special abilities we all have; we can send and receive messages telepathically. “Okay, Mom, I'll be right there,” I sent back. After helping her I told her I was going over to MP's house and then I'd start on my homework.I walked in the door without knocking as I always did saying “Hi” to Mrs. O'Brien before heading to MP's room. “You decent?” I kidded her before opening the door.“Come on in, I want you to see this.” I saw MP sitting on her bed topless. She took my hand, pulling me to sit next to her. She led both of my hands to her chest. There were two small lumps there where previously there had been nothing. I felt them in awe. “It's working, Jeremy, it's working! Your family superstition is giving me boobs.” MP was elated. Two weeks later she invited me to her room again and once again she brought my hands to her chest. By now she was somewhere between an A and a B-cup. It was wonderful to feel those firm soft mounds topped by beautiful pink nipples. Three more times I'd feel them before they made it all the way to C's.Sarah, however, was learning that having big breasts wasn't all it was cracked up to be. She had probably been between a B and a C-cup when she started but three months later she was an H. A month later she must have been an HH. Kids started “mooing” every time she walked down the hall, and in the cafeteria it was even worse. I was feeling pretty good about all of it until my mom cornered me after school one afternoon. “I went to the high school for PTA this morning; I saw Sarah Cunningham. Her breasts weren't grown “naturally,” were they?”I gulped a few times before explaining what and why I had taken action. I told her I'd take care of her right away. “What about MP? Was that your handiwork, too?”“Yes, Mom, I couldn't stand to watch her get teased by the other girls. They were so cruel. You know what her mom looks like. MP was going to wind up just like her. Now she's feeling really good about herself.”“Okay, but you'd better take care of Sarah immediately. I heard she's thinking about surgery so you have to deal with it and the sooner the better.” I said the appropriate spell, Mom smiled at me, and Sarah's breasts began to shrink. I set it up so the shrinkage would occur pretty quickly so there'd be no need for an operation and I left her at a D which should make her pretty happy after her ordeal.Giving MP boobs proved to be one of my best ideas ever. I started going over to her house, and by March it was every afternoon, to feel, rub, and suck on them. In no time at all MP would start moaning like crazy. How her mom didn't hear us I'll never know. Maybe she did and just figured it was all part of growing up. Everything was going pretty well until a Friday afternoon at the end of the month. When I walked into MP's room she was completely dressed and looking down. I sat on the bed next to her and lifted her chin with my finger. “What's wrong, MP?” I asked showing my concern. “Did I do something to hurt you?”“No, Jeremy. I'm the one who's done something. Actually, it's because I've done nothing that I'm upset.”“Huh?” Boy; was I confused. I spread my arms starting to ask a question but nothing came out. I didn't know what to say or ask. Fortunately, MP saw my distress. She started to laugh. “Jeremy, you are so sweet. First, you rescued me from that awful Sarah and then you helped me get boobs and then you've been coming over here every day and making me feel really good!”“Okay,” I responded, “but what's the problem?” I was still confused.“That's just it, Jeremy. What am I doing for you? Nothing!”“Well,” I said with a sly smile, “you ARE letting me play with those nice tits of yours.”“Yeah, well, duh! If you knew how good it feels when you rub them and play with my nipples you'd understand why. But, what am I doing to make you feel good? Not a thing, and that's why I'm upset with myself. My mom had a big talk with me last night; about sex. She told me it was all about giving as well as you're getting. She told me that she's heard me moaning but she's never heard you.”“What? Your mom knows what we've been doing? Great, I'm really going to catch it from my folks now. They'll never let me come over here again.”MP put her finger to my mouth to quiet me. “My mom is really cool about my growing up. She knows I'm going to experiment and; well; she likes you. She's not going to tell your parents. She's not even going to tell my dad. So starting today I've decided to help you feel good, too.”“Okay,” I replied with a big smile on my face, “just what did you have in mind?” Rather than tell me MP showed me by pulling me into my first real kiss with a girl. MP had the sweetest, softest lips and when she pushed her tongue into my mouth I felt like I was in Heaven. “Wow!” I exclaimed when we broke the kiss, “That really made me feel good.”“Oh, Jeremy, you can be so silly sometimes. That was just a kiss. It was great but not quite what I had in mind.”“Then; uh; ,” I was tongue tied again.“Simple, Jeremy, I'm going to play with your penis,” she said calmly as she reached for my belt buckle. Slowly she opened my belt and unbuttoned my pants. Her eyes never left mine as she pulled my zipper down and removed my suddenly rock hard cock from my briefs. I was dumfounded by this development. I'd never seen this side of MP; maybe I was just too close to tell the forest from the trees. After all, other than Ted and Josh she was my best friend.MP pushed me back onto the bed and lay next to me as she started to stroke my cock. “My mom says that guys just love this. Do you love it, Jeremy? I like doing it to you.”“I do love it, MP. You can do this to me anytime.”“Is this how you masturbate, Jeremy?”“Yeah, MP, I usually do it when I go home after seeing you and your beautiful tits. Speaking of which why don't you let me play with them while you play with me?” MP sat up, removed her shirt and bra and returned to her place next to me. She stroked me slowly at first while I suckled and massaged her glorious breasts.“Is this your sperm?” she asked suddenly. I explained about pre-cum, suggesting she touch it and rub it over my cock. “Oh, I like the way it feels; kind of slippery, but how does your sperm come out?”“If you stroke it a little faster and harder you'll find out.” Taking my suggestion MP gripped me tighter and ran her hand up and down my cock faster and faster, I kissed her hard as I twisted her nipples. We groaned in our ecstasy at exactly the same instant. “Damn, MP, you're doing it. I'm going to cum.” MP broke the kiss and sat up a bit, leaning on her arm, to see what was about to happen. With a sudden grunt I shot almost three feet into the air. When it fell to my abdomen it was replaced by another not quite as high. All told I squirted five times. When I was finished I lay exhausted on MP's bed.“That was really interesting, Jeremy, and really sloppy. I guess it's really better in my cunny.”That got a swift reaction from me, believe me. I shot up and looked at MP questioningly. “Not today, Jeremy, I'm not ready, but when I am you'll know. I need to make you more familiar with my cunny before I let you fuck me. At least that's what my mom says.”“Wow,” was all I could say. “You really have some great mother.”“Yeah, I do, don't I.” She leaned over to kiss me again before walking to the bathroom for a towel so she could clean up the mess I had made.Chapter 2.Now I couldn't wait to get to MP's after school. My relationship with Ted and Josh suffered but, truthfully, I didn't really care. They couldn't give me anything close to what MP was giving me and as we continued to meet, so we also ratcheted up the stakes. It was early April when she first took me into her mouth. I had entered her room and stripped as usual. MP was topless, also as usual. I guess she wasn't quite ready for me to deal with her cunt. We pulled each other into a long passionate kiss. I could feel her braces with my tongue, something I found surprisingly arousing. Our tongues wrestled back and forth between our mouths. MP broke the kiss, gave me a brief peck on my lips, and smiled wickedly. Then she moved down my body until her head was even with my throbbing cock. She reached out with her tongue and licked my cock head, removing some of, but not nearly all of my pre-cum. “Umm, pretty tasty, Jeremy. I think I'd like some more.” That's when she took the entire head into her mouth. I should explain about my cock. It wasn't until I was ten that I realized my cock was pretty small, probably not more than four inches long, and that was with a monster erection. I recited my favorite growth spell, transforming it magically onto a much larger organ. After the spell it was a hefty five inches long soft, and eight-plus inches hard. More importantly, it went from just one inch across to more than two. I gave it one more treatment, making it the exact perfect size for any girl or woman I might fuck. Big cunt or small; I was going to be just right. Now, in MP's mouth it was at its maximum size as she struggled to swallow it. Up and down her head moved as she washed my cock with her active tongue. “Damn, MP, you're driving me crazy doing that.”“Don't cuss, Jeremy. I know you like it. My mom told me that this is the favorite thing for most men, even more than fucking.”“Well,” I commented, “I'm not in a position to say either way but it sure is great. If you keep that up I'm going to cum. I'm getting really hot.”“Go ahead, Jeremy. Mom says guys love it when they cum in a girl's mouth, too. I'm going to do it for you. I figure I owe you.”“MP, you; don't; owe; me; anything.” I was barely able to get the words out when suddenly, “Oh, God, I'm cumming. I'm cumming, MP.” I felt my balls clench and my cock expand in her mouth as my first jet of baby cream shot into her throat. She struggled to swallow my load as I shot repeatedly into her mouth, but she managed to get almost all of it. The little bit that escaped was scooped up on her fingers and licked off promptly. MP climbed up onto the bed and we held each other.“MP,” I whispered, “now it's my turn to feel guilty. Don't you think I should make you cum? I know you like when I play with your tits, but that's not anywhere as good as cumming, is it?“You're right, Jeremy. I thought I was doing all this for you but I didn't think of it from your side, that you'd want to do for me what I was doing for you. Here, wait a minute while I undress.” She rose and dropped her slacks and underwear, what I later learned were called panties. I looked at my friend naked for the first time and, for the first time realized what a beautiful young woman she was becoming. MP was about five feet five inches tall and couldn't have weighed much more than one hundred pounds. She had long blonde hair and freckles over much of her body, but not on her gorgeous tits, or on her fine firm butt. She had the beginnings of a narrow waist and flaring hips. She was, without a doubt, the sexiest woman I had ever seen. When she turned back to me I could see that she had golden pubic hair that was trimmed short and shaved back from her legs, I guessed for her bikini bathing suit.MP lay back on the bed next to me. I'd felt her skin on mine before but this time her contact sent shocks through my system. I pulled her into a close embrace for a long lingering kiss. “MP,” I whispered, “you have to show me what to do. I want to do it right for you.”She turned onto her back and spread her legs. “See out here,” pointing to her cunt lips, “I like to have these rubbed. It gets me really excited. In here is my tunnel where one of these days I hope you'll fuck me. You can stick your finger in there and fuck me with it. That'll feel really good. Up here on top; give me your finger; feel that hard little thing? That's my clitoris. Rubbing that will make me cum, but do that last so I can build up to it, Okay?” She withdrew her hand and crossed her arms behind her head. It was up to me now to take care of her. I followed her directions carefully rubbing her whole cunny with the palm of my hand. I guess it was Okay because MP started moaning almost immediately. I did this for maybe two or three minutes then I ventured into her with my middle finger. I couldn't believe how hot and wet and smooth she was. I pumped that finger into her and when her moaning increased I did it faster and faster. “Now, Jeremy. Touch my clit now; please! I touched her lightly and that was all it took. She shuddered several times and then it seemed that she experienced some whole-body muscle spasms. Finally, she stopped and lay still. “You can stop now, Jeremy. That was fantastic. We can do that every day. I think that we'll be ready for fucking pretty soon.” Wow, that was good news!Chapter 3.MP and I had several classes together and one of them was Health, a course that I thought was mostly a complete waste of time, at least until the last week in April when we started the Sex Education part. It was one of the few times you could hear a pin drop in the classroom. Ms. Finley, a good looking brunette with really big tits was our teacher and I know all the guys and, probably a lot of the girls, were wondering if she had gotten this knowledge firsthand. We learned all about the male and female anatomy and how both sexes reacted when stimulated which was pretty interesting but we were all waiting for the really important stuff; how to fuck! Ms. Finley opened the class by asking if we knew what a condom was. There was a lot of giggling and tittering in the room, but a stern look from Ms. Finley put an immediate end to that. She showed us several brands of condoms and opened a foil package so we could see what the actual condom looked like. Then she proceeded to roll the condom down a cucumber (I guess she couldn't use a real penis without getting into big trouble!). We were extremely attentive, actually staring at the demonstration, so I was surprised when MP turned around, looked me in the eyes, and mouthed the words, “I'm ready!” She smiled broadly at my reaction which was to almost fall out of my seat.When the class ended MP was waiting for me in the hallway. “Did you mean that, MP? Are you really ready to; you know?”“Yes, Jeremy,” she was practically whispering in the noisy corridor, “I am ready for you to fuck me.

I have some condoms from my mom.” She leaned over to kiss me briefly on the cheek even though that was strictly against the rules. Ms. Finley saw her but fortunately let it slide. We parted toward our respective classes but I couldn't wait for the day to end.MP and I were surprisingly quiet on the walk home. Even Ted and Josh commented. We were still friends, but no longer the Three Musketeers. Dropping them at their homes, MP and I were free to speak so I asked her, “Are you sure you want to do this, MP?”“Why, Jeremy? Don't you want to? I want to fuck you.”“MP, it's all I've thought of since we started fooling around. I'm the lucki

She is the current Labour MP for Batley and Spen. Kim hasn't taken the traditional route into politics, and her background in Sport Health, and Wellbeing science equips her with unique tools to advocate for a wellbeing-first approach to politics. Last year, she launched the ‘Healthy Britain' report, outlining her recommendations for a new approach to health and wellbeing policy. Kim's work focuses on finding ways to embed wellbeing into the heart of all government decisions and policy, by taking a cross-departmental approach. She advocates for putting measures in place to treat root causes and prevent people from becoming ill, rather than ‘patching people up' once they are struggling. Kim discusses her recommendations with host Sarah Cunningham, which range from encouraging grass-roots sports amongst children to designing housing and transport systems that facilitate social connection. ***We are all Working on our Wellbeing daily, but not everyone has access to the latest cutting-edge research into the science of wellbeing … until now.

When we think about a country's government, many of us are likely to conjure up images in our mind of our country's Prime Minister, Taoiseach, or President ... or perhaps a senior Minister who is in the public eye a lot. But we shouldn't overlook the large number of people who play an integral role in supporting these figureheads. In the UK, more than half a million people work for the British Civil Service which, between 2005 and 2011, was led by today's guest, Lord Gus O'Donnell.

By 1924, Sarah Cunningham has spent years in France establishing her own artistic style, more contemporary than the landscapes that have made her older sister, Ada Belle Davenport, famous. She has just attained her goal—a one-woman show in an exclusive Paris gallery—when Ada Belle dies unexpectedly. Sarah temporarily abandons her own career, traveling to Carmel-by-the-Sea to find out what happened. Sarah reaches California to discover that the local marshal has already closed the inquest into Ada Belle's death, ruling it a suicide. The will that appoints Sarah as both beneficiary and executor has gone missing, as has a crucial series of portraits promised to a gallery in New York. Meanwhile, Sarah herself and many of Ada Belle's friends question the suicide ruling, and as the details of Ada Belle's final days resurface, the more striking the discrepancies become between the official verdict and the clues discovered by Sarah and her sister's faithful Jack Russell terrier, Albert. In The Artist Colony (She Writes Press, 2021), Joanna FitzPatrick constructs a fast-paced mystery in which a combination of historical and fictional characters battle over uncomfortable truths against a background of brilliant sky- and seascapes, viewed with an artist's eye. Joanna FitzPatrick is the author of Katherine Mansfield and The Drummer's Widow. C. P. Lesley is the author of two historical fiction series set during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible and three other novels. Her latest book, Song of the Sisters, appeared in January 2021.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR Joanna FitzPatrick was raised in Hollywood. She started her writing habit by applying her orange fountain pen and a wild imagination to screenplays, which led her early on to produce the film White Lilacs and Pink Champagne.

Her more recent work includes two novels, Katherine Mansfield, Bronze Winner of the 2021 Independent Publisher Book Award (IPPY) in Historical Fiction, and The Drummer's Widow. The Artist Colony is her third book. Presently, FitzPatrick divides her time between a cottage by the sea in Pacific Grove, California and a hameau in rural southern France where she begins all her book projects.

En route, she is shocked to learn that Ada Belle's suspicious death is a suicide. But why kill herself?

Does what you do have integrity with who you are? For Sarah Cunningham, Principal and CEO of Ethos Design/Remodel and Ethos Real Estate, having that integrity of purpose is important for her to feel good about what she does day to day. More than designing and remodeling, Sarah's work is about building community and connectedness, which happens by designing spaces one at a time to meet the needs of each client. At the same time, she seeks to create homes that will benefit current and future generations, building sustainably for the benefit of the community for years to come. For Sarah, the key to success in business has been bringing together a purpose-driven life with her professional career, creating what she describes as a magic zone. If you are looking to integrate what drives you with your work, she says trust your intuition and listen to your inner voice. **** Love Shadow (Remix Safety Guide) by rocavaco (c) copyright 2015 Licensed under a Creative Commons Noncommercial Sampling Plus license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/rocavaco/52156 Ft: Loveshadow
