In one of my past podcast episodes from September 2021, amidst the pandemic, I chatted with Dr. Carole Robin about how expressing our emotions can help us stay present and connect with others.

With all the stress, anxiety, and grief caused by the pandemic, it's more important than ever to acknowledge and express our emotions. Doing so can help build trust and connections with our colleagues, leading to better teamwork. Plus, it's a great way to stay focused on the present moment and navigate the constant changes in the workplace. So, let's create a culture that encourages us to express ourselves freely and without judgment, for the sake of our mental wellness and stronger workplace relationships.
