Breakthrough Conversation with Amanda Phillips
According to a report released by SHRM in 2024, 44% of 1,405 U.S. employees felt burn out from work. If you are in that number, tune into Angela’s important conversation with Amanda Phillips, President of Performance at Exos, the global leader in human performance providing coaches who work to unlock the potential in everyone from corporate employees, elite athletes, and military personnel. While we may not all be high performing athletes, the science related to our physical and mental health works the same. Amanda discusses that when our physical stress management load becomes too high, it will manifest as an injury to the body. Likewise, mental stress overload results in burnout. The antidote for burnout is recovery. Recovery cannot be a reward; it should be an integral part of your day. Listen as Amanda describes some recovery tools that we can all tap into fairly easily. Women, you will be happy to know that there is now a concentrated focus on how to optimize our mind/body performance, factoring in our hormonal cycles and changes. We have to create spaces for these conversations, and engage with experts like Amanda who are leading the way with important data that will benefit all of us. We hope that this will be the first of many discussions on this topic. Pivots are not detours; they are the breakthroughs needed to expand the path forward. Consume this podcast wherever you get yours, and connect with Angela across social channels. Share your breakthrough moments that may give someone else the courage to pivot. Thank you for being here.
