  • American Nurses Foundation Gratitude Podcast - How to Share Gratitude with Your Team & Colleagues, with Amy Graber, MSN, RN, OCN, and Katie Feley, DNP, RN, NE-BC

    Welcome to a special series on Gratitude brought to you by the American Nurses Foundation through the generous support of the Center for Disaster Philanthropy’s Disaster Recovery Fund.

    In this special series we will explore how developing gratitude practices can significantly improve your health and well-being, while also improving your work, safety, relationships, self-care, growth, and joy.

    The American Nurses Foundation has undertaken this work as part of its Well-Being Initiative, which supports nurses’ mental health through the pandemic and beyond. Decades of research have shown that practicing gratitude is highly effective in promoting physical and psychological health, both at the individual and organizational levels. This podcast series builds up previous work conducted by the American Nurses Foundation in partnership with the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley.

    Gratitude Practice for Nurses toolkit was designed to create easy-to-implement evidence based practices.

    In this episode, Amy Graber, Magnet Program Coordinator, Nursing Administration, CHI Health Mercy, Katie Feley, Chief Executive Officer, Indiana State Nurses Association, Executive Director, Indiana Nurses Foundation, and I go on a journey to discover how to share gratitude practices with teams, colleagues, coworkers. We talk about the impact when these gratitude practices are shared, encouraged and supported. We arrive at a understanding of how gratitude has made significant impacts in work cultures, team development, and the customer experience.

  • Highway to Well: "Within Your Reach," with David Derus

    "We may well be the ones. If not then why are we here." - Paul Westerberg

    How do we perform at our peak? What can we do to create a mindset for success? What role can we play in breaking down the stigma surrounding mental health?

    These are important questions, and in this episode of "Highway to Well," David Derus, sports psychologist, and I will navigate the path to peak performance, at home, at work, and on the field. Along the way we’ll talk about how important a growth mindset is for performance and improving our wellbeing. Finally, we’ll arrive at what tools can help us through the boggy quagmire of COVID life and see it through with our wellness intact.

  • Highway to Well, Episode 31: "Golden Days," with Maggie Gough

    "Am I in tune? Yeah, I can't hear much. But the melody coming from you." - the Damnwells

    We're all on a search for meaning, purpose and belonging. We can find that in presence. Maybe the great lesson of 2020 is that we needed it restored. Our rhythm of life needed to be reset, allowing us to be still, to look into this window of wonder of the moment.

    We learned how fragile these days are, how our best plans are laid to waste and our security disarmed. In our rush, we've been failing to recognize our greatest gift - to be where we are today.

    In this special episode of "Highway to Well," Maggie Gough, President, Founder and CEO Realize Wellbeing, and I close out 2020 and usher in 2021 by discussing the adventures she captures on her Instagram story, how we can evolve wellness to encompass the whole person, and the majesty of restoration.

    As we embark on a new year, we have the opportunity to breathe, recover and celebrate each day as a gift of wonder as we transform cultures of connection into cultures of belonging.

  • Highway to Well, Episode 28: "This Must Be the Place," with Derek Marie

    "Home, is where I want to be. But I guess I'm already there.." - Talking Heads

    While I've been a wellness professional for over 20 years, I have been a soccer coach longer. It is something that is woven into my DNA and has a home in my heart and soul.

    In this very special episode of "Highway to Well," I invited Derek Marie, Head Men's Soccer Coach at Carroll University (WI), to talk about our lives as coaches. We begin this journey with discussing the impact COVID has had on our coaching and planning, but we quickly pivot to what it means to build a culture and how to raise quality young men. We also discuss the role coaches play in knocking down the stigma surrounding mental health and well-being and how important it is we allow our players to be vulnerable so we can open them up to discover their greatness.

    This discussion is what matters most to me in coaching today. We need to treat mental health as a "moonshot" initiative so we can crush the stigma, overcome barriers, and create safe environments for all kids to have a special experience with sports. The opportunity is staring at us. It's coaches like Derek who will help us land this mission.

  • Highway to Well, Episode 26: "A Sort of Homecoming," with Sara Martin

    "And you hunger for the time. Time to heal, desire, time. And your earth moves beneath your own dream landscape." - Bono

    In this episode of "Highway to Well," Sara and I will journey thought the depths of our collective well-being in a world that is unpredictable, dynamic, and challenging. Living better and thriving requires us to dive into the value of social connection, resiliency, and having a deep understanding of how our mental, physical, and emotional health impacts our happiness. Sara's empathetic, thoughtful, and caring leadership shines through as we search for meaning in difficult times.
