January 2025 Work Life and Well-being Bulletin

Happy New Year 2025, We have really kicked off the new year and winter in a very snowy way. Be safe out there. Sometimes we get so busy with the daily grind that we miss the small moments to connect with colleagues, family, and friends. In 2025, I hope you have a year of positive connections, productive workspaces, healthy relationships, and consistent physical fitness routines to name a few. Overall, in this new year, I hope you create effective work-life and well-being strategies that allow you to nurture yourself, reset when needed and make regular progress.

December 2024 Work-Life Workshops/Opportunities

The fall season and the holiday season usually bring with them a lot of people time. We see people at fun gatherings, office party time, gatherings with friends and family, special events, travel time, etc. Whatever you choose to do over the next month, I hope you remember to pace yourself and be present. Be in the moment so that you can take it all in and enjoy it. Don’t let the busyness of the season sidetrack you on your self-care journey. Have fun and stay well.

Well, you are not alone. In addition, so many of us welcome fall for its milder temps and all the wonderful fall activities that accompany this time of the year.
