Leading Well: Leadership, Burnout & Building a Wellness-First Team Culture
This episode features a roundtable with Kelly, Casey, Kaitlyn and Jenny on “Leading Well,” focusing on leadership and wellness, burnout, and supporting team health.
In this episode, we explore:
Personal experiences of being thrown into leadership young, perfectionism and the achiever trap, and how values and seasons of life (including parenting and entrepreneurship) shape stress and self-care
Burnout as a chronic stress response that never turns off, common symptoms (irritability, brain fog, sleep issues), and the importance of outlets.
Personal, practical strategies such as prioritizing 15–20 minutes daily, energy audits
Team leadership strategies including modeling transparency, one-on-ones – as well as the importance of psychological safety, trust, delegation, and culture-building
Into the Woods’ wellness services, memberships, and workplace wellness presentations
