self-care is a growth mindset and the foundation for a culture of care® where people belong, ENGAGE, and work better

care is the new currency that drives performance, engagement & sustainable success.

Unlocking the power of pausing, we change the culture together because self-care creates a ripple effect in how we think, engage, and act. When wellbeing is at the core of how we engage and the foundation for how we achieve results, we can harness change and cultivate sustainable growth without burning out.

To navigate disruption, we need the tools of The Self-Care Mindset® to foster a resilient culture, not because we can withstand more, but because we are aware, adaptable, and agile.

A purpose-driven culture is a care-driven culture. A culture built on healthy human relationships aligned with what we care about. A culture where work/life quality is how we work better together.

Wellbeing is a tool we can all learn how to use:

POWER-PAUSING™: THE KEY TO A CONNECTED CULTURE WHERE PEOPLE ENGAGE WITH CARE.

In a busy world, it's easy to get overwhelmed and stuck. It’s easy to focus on what's not working, to feel like we are running in survival mode, to fix the urgent at the expense of the important. With stress like that distracting our attention from what matters, it’s hard to focus on the human connection that drives our engagement. 

“Fixing” this kind of burnout often means seeking time away or more predictable days. But we can’t stop busy. However, we can learn to navigate the uncertainty and harness change –– without the worry that wears us out.

How? By “Power-Pausing”— creating the mental space that frees us to listen more deeply and engage more purposefully.

Join Jeanette in this enlightening and empowering session to reclaim agency over how you think, engage, and act. 

At the end of the day, it's what we care about that drives how we connect, communicate, and collaborate and inspires us to take action about what matters, not just for ourselves but also together. 

After this session, you will be able to: 

  • Implement easy-to-use tools to cut through overwhelm and reclaim your attention and focus

  • Ask better questions to tap into your greatest human drive: what you care about

  • Employ a simple framework for the connection, communication, and collaboration that drives engagement

THE SELF-CARE MINDSET®: UNLOCKING PERFORMANCE FROM THE INSIDE OUT

The demands on us are increasing, and change is stressful, but how can we navigate daily challenges with intent and care instead of just continuing to push through and work harder?

Instead of allowing uncertainty to freeze us up or burn us out, how can we grow through adversity and harness change?

And how do we do our best when time is limited, and we’re exhausted?

The world has changed, work has changed, and we have changed, but our relationship with self-care—the very foundation of performance—has remained the same.

Not only that, what if we have self-care all wrong? What if self-care is not what we do after work to recover but rather a mindset we have with us all day long? What if self-care is how we support ourselves in spending time better?

The self-care mindset intersects emotional intelligence, mental agility, and our humanity to guide us. It’s the foundation for positive change and growth. It’s how we harness well-being and reclaim work-life quality so we can reach our goals without burning out 

The power of care is at the core of high-performing teams and a culture where people belong, engage, connect and work better together because the quality of our relationships is the quality of our culture.

To harness our human connection we need to learn how to ask better questions. By exploring the CARE framework: self-Communication, self-Awareness, self-Responsibility, and self-Expression we can learn how to engage in meaningful conversations and build relationships that matter, starting with our relationship with ourselves.

During this session, 

  • You will gain an understanding of how our three main relationships (self, others, work) are interconnected and their significance in the workplace. 

  • You will learn to identify what you need to perform at your best, thereby increasing productivity, creativity, and success. 

  • Discover how to use the CARE framework's four questions to help you grow stronger during times of change.

  • Learn easy-to-use tools and strategies that can immediately be applied to unlock and harness the most essential resource we possess: our humanity.

CARE-DRIVEN LEADERSHIP®: LEAD THROUGH CHANGE TO HARNESS GROWTH WITHOUT THE BURNOUT

As a leader, navigating change can be daunting without a clear plan. The world is constantly changing, and it can be uncomfortable and uncertain. However, change is essential for growth, even though it can cause tension, stress, and conflict. We need the right tools to face uncertainty and harness personal and professional growth to overcome these challenges.

Instead of trying to control, manage, and predict change, today's leaders must learn to pause, listen, and ask better questions to support their team. We must focus on creating a culture of psychological safety where everyone knows they matter and feels supported.

Using the C.A.R.E. framework, we can build emotional agency and harness the stress of change with curiosity, acknowledgment, respect, and empathy.

To focus is on practical tools and strategies that leaders can use to guide themselves and their teams toward sustainable success during times of change. These techniques can be easily implemented and put into practice right away.

After this keynote, you will know how to use the CARE Framework to: 

  • Cultivate a work environment where people engage, innovate, and grow. 

  • Engage in meaningful conversations that lead to better decisions and results and foster an inclusive and accountable team environment. 

  • Unlock our human advantage to think, engage, act with care and purpose, and grow through adversity with awareness, adaptability, agility, and fun.

A CULTURE OF CARE®: RE-ENGAGING A CULTURE WHERE PEOPLE DO WORK THAT MATTERS

Life and work continue to speed up and demand more of us. Our attention is stretched and distracted, and engaging and staying focused on what matters is harder than ever. Our core human need to feel safe is challenged like never before because the future is uncertain, and change constantly challenges our sense of agency. 

How can we develop strong, healthy relationships that foster an agile culture of change? This starts with our relationship with ourselves and extends to how we connect and engage with others. The quality of our relationships becomes the quality of our culture. By prioritizing our humanity at work, we can build a culture that reflects the values of care.

Imagine a culture where we take a moment to pause together and intentionally focus our attention. A culture where everyone is valued and cares about their work because they know it matters. A culture where we extend our care to those we serve and prioritize what truly matters.

We often assume that caring for people is our responsibility, but in reality, it means caring about them by asking them what they need to reclaim agency over their work and lives. This approach promotes diversity and inclusivity in the workplace and allows us to tap into our human advantage of connecting, communicating, and collaborating with intention, care, and purpose. A Culture of Care® prioritizes the overall well-being of all individuals involved.

You and your teams will learn how to pause, listen, ask better questions to be more aware, adaptable, and agile to grow through adversity together, building a culture where C.A.R.E. means Confidence, Agility, Resilience, and Equity. 

After this session, you will be able to: 

  • Engage in meaningful conversations that cultivate connection and build stronger relationships.

  • Foster an inclusive and accountable team environment

  • Harness simple strategies to align your company values with outcomes and impact.

UNSTRESS:

HOW TO STOP STRESS FROM RUNNING YOUR LIFE BY TRANSFORMING YOUR INNER CRITIC TO YOUR INNER COACH

unstress-yellow.jpg

What if stress and burnout doesn't come from working too much, but rather from worrying too much? We have so many questions every day and most of them unproductive and we end up getting stuck in thoughts that drains our energy, sucks up our creativity, and wear us out. What if stress is not the problem, but rather the possibility for growth? The way our mind works is either working for us or against us, depending on how we ask questions of ourselves.

The Right Why® is a process of getting unstuck and using productive self-questioning to move from stress to problem solving, from confusion to clarity, and from fear and anxiety to courage and confidence. Using elements from The Self-Care Mindset® we can hone in on how we support ourselves in becoming more resilient and master stress to work for us.

Let’s get to know our mind better so that it can work for us rather than against us.

HUMANITY AT WORK:

A CONVERSATION ABOUT HOW WE PAUSE AND HARNESS THE CHALLENGES AHEAD USING THE PRINCIPLES OF THE CARE-FRAMEWORK TOGETHER.

What’s on your mind? What’s the challenge you and your team need to overcome? What do you need to thrive, reconnect and harness change in a post pandemic work-culture? How do you cultivate connection, engagement, and growth when the whole company has already pushed so hard to work through the pandemic? How do you balance work and life when there’s no natural beginning and end to the day? How do you show your team that you care about their whole human health and you want them to care about it too? How do you give your people the tools to navigate their emotional wellbeing and mental health and encourage a healthy relationship with resilience?

I’m sure we can keep going with the questions that might be on your mind and the questions your people are asking themselves every day too. A conversational keynote is an open session where we will address any of these questions and as many as we can. Anything from 45 - 90 min sessions. Casual, open mic or facilitated chat. Panel or not. You choose, I make it happen. This is not a presentation with slides, it’s a sit down with you, your leaders, your team or a panel from your team and you get to ask me anything and we will care about the a healthy future for everyone, together.

Redefining success and an inclusive culture by rethinking self-care and cultivate better communication.

We don’t plan to burn out, but do we plan for how not to?

Self-care is not fluffy. It’s how we navigate uncertainty & harness change. It’s how we can become more aware, adaptable & agile. It’s how we stop burning out & start working better. It’s how we care better together. It’s how we built a culture where people belong and want to work. It’s how we support people in reaching their goals. It’s how we cultivate better connection, communication, and collaboration. It’s how we reclaim agency in our daily work-life and reach our goals, together.

RETHINKING A RESILIENT CULTURE IS TO UNLEASH THE POWER OF PAUSING SO THAT WE CAN BE MORE AWARE, ADAPTABLE, AND AGILE.

Companies get the framework for creating a culture that’s more inclusive, engaging, and care-driven to cultivate better connection, communication, and collaboration. The focus is to leave with tools to harness the human advantage by rethinking the process of achieving results, create impact, and sustainable sustainable success, without sacrificing our health and personal lives.
