I'd love to hear any questions or comments you have about the show. Send me a message! Jean

To truly change the culture at a workplace, we must embark on an inner journey of self-transformation, and mindfulness. As the saying goes, "If you want to change the world, first change yourself." But how can we cultivate self-kindness, self-compassion, and self-empathetic awareness so that these qualities can radiate toward others?
In order for empathy to flow from the top down, it is crucial to equip leaders with the tools of mindfulness and self-awareness. By guiding leaders to understand the depths of their own hearts, they can effectively embody the qualities they wish to see in others.
Join Helen Williams, mindfulness coach, Emirates Woman, Woman of the Year, and 50 Most Inspirational Women of the UAE as she shares the power of cultivating mindfulness and presence from within.
Jean and Helen discuss:

What if the word “Stress" ceased to exist in our vocabulary?
How does mindfulness help us in our working lives?
How can leaders bring mindfulness into the workplace?
Different types of mindfulness that help with stillness
