Live from the PeopleForward Network Community, Jason sits down with Dr. Patricia Grabarek and Dr. Katina Sawyer—aka the workplace wellbeing docs 👩‍⚕️👩‍⚕️—to talk about their new book "Leading for Wellness."

Why are employees feeling worse despite all the wellness perks? What does real support look like? And how can leaders stop burnout before it starts? This convo is packed with research, laughs, and "aha" moments on leading people-first.

Let's get well, together. 🌱

  • Leaders must proactively prioritize and manage team workload to prevent burnout.
