Query: How can people prioritize their well-being at work? There’s a growing conversation around bringing your whole self to work, and a collective understanding that we can’t do our best work when we’re burned out, and we must prioritize self-care. But how exactly can we do that during our working hours? How do we prioritize ourselves at work? Should we be taking a real lunch break? How can figure out our energy levels, focus better, talk to our bosses about our needs, and learn to say no?

Requirements: Organizational psychologists and licensed therapists, counselors, or social workers who specialize in workplace wellness and self-care may be most helpful here.
