Ep. 6 - Wellness or Wellbeing? ft. Dr.Bryan Williams

On this week's episode, Christa Rymal is joined by Bryan Williams- a practicing pulmonary and critical care physician and the first Chief Wellbeing Officer at MHealth Fairview.

Bryan offers listeners insight into what can be learned from his experience as CWO. Bryan sets the stage for today's conversation by emphasizing one large distinction:

Wellness = A Lack of Disease

Well-Being = Feeling Content with Your Station in Life (e.g. If in the workplace- experiencing joy in work, etc.)

Christa and Dr. Bryan move on from here as we they discuss burnout, successful and unsuccessful systems, the business cases for wellness interventions, and seemingly small changes that make large differences in the health of employees.

Bryan shares the value of understanding what is inside and outside of our control and reminds us of our own resilience. (Note: The ideas Bryan shares can be used to improve the health and well-being of healthcare workers, yet can also be applied to listeners' personal lives and corporate workplace cultures.)

Tune in this week to soak up hard-earned wisdom from someone making large policy changes in the health industry. Enjoy! #rebelandbewell
