Special episode 2 of 3.

Achieving optimal wellness while working towards equity in healthcare begins with leaders actively investing in rest. Implementing sustainable practices for rest and emotional wellbeing is not limited to large-scale organizational leadership; individuals can also lead by inviting others to participate in rest to encourage renewal and prevent burnout at work.

They share how leaders and organizations are creating space for rest in their work culture and protecting their staff’s emotional wellbeing.
