Replaying our episode with Morgan Chawaga. 

Morgan is a licensed architect turned stress management consultant. After experiencing the stress and exhaustion known by many in the industry, she developed stress management tools that she now shares with architects that help them DESIGN and BUILD a healthier relationship with their careers.


We talk about:

- Morgan's background working for both architecture firms and owners and how her experiences in the industry impacted her. 

- The origin of her company, The Healthy Architect, and how a nights and weekends effort became her full-time job recently. 

- Morgan shares some of her mental health philosophies: how motherhood makes women skillful managers and empathetic collaborators, the power of habit stacking (hint: you can do a lot while Revit syncs!), and essential ways to advocate for yourself in the workplace. We also share a short breathing exercise- join us! 

- We end with Morgan’s home office decor- what she keeps on the wall as a reminder of where she’s been and where she is going.
