The Well Mind welcomes Jeremy Ballew to the podcast in the episode. How healthy are you at work? It’s estimated that the average American spends 90,000 hours at work across the lifespan. Who we are and how we are at work has a huge impact on our overall health and wellness. Jeremy works in the field of EAP, which stands for Employee Assistance Program. He works as a consultant and trainer; helping businesses with leadership development, conflict resolution, performance management, and creating a healthy culture within the workplace. Jeremy shares about his personal growth through challenging workplace issues and how that has fed his passion for supporting employees through workplace issues. Rather than falling into the negative and culture killing habits of passivity, complaining, holding grudges, and emotional escalation, Jeremy gives guidance on how to prepare for and face difficult conversations at work. He shares more practical wisdoms, like the 4 A’s of stress management in the workplace, and walks through everything that he and his team do to serve employers and employees. We also have a little fun at the end of this episode as we talk about a few of our adventures from 2020.
