It all started when…
I sat down with some friends for coffee a couple of years ago. We were talking about their busy lives, their jobs that required working all hours of the day, including weekends. And one friend in particlar, told me that he gives jobs his all, then leaves his jobs, takes a break, and starts that cycle all over again.
Of course it is his prerogative, I do wonder though. How effective is that in the long run? How does it affect being connected to yourself and others in the here and now? And, is it healthy for leaders to reward such organisational cultures, where staff work until they have nothing left to give?
On top of this, we are currently faced with a totally new reality. For some of us that busy job is now in our living room, possibly surrounded by children. Yes, what a strange time we are living through. A global pandemic with associated economic uncertainties in a virtually connected world, where the majority of us live in cities away from nature to escape to.
What does this combination of factors do to our minds and our bodies? How can we honour ourselves, and take agency of our fears and wishes?
