The well’s blog

Welcome, friend.

If you’ve landed here, it’s probably because you know it’s time to prioritise your own well-being. If not as much as you prioritise work and other people, then at least a bit more! 

You might still be struggling to take the actual steps needed to get to where you want to be, or you are in the process of implementing what you know would support you in feeling more resourced, and better able to bring your contribution to the world.

In this blog, we share musings about wellbeing, creativity, healing, and how all of this relates to changework. If you'd like to make a contribution, drop us a note.

Burn-out: am I out of the woods yet?

Burn-out threw me off my feet, off my timeline and good intentions. It caught me by surprise, though probably I was the only one to feel so. Here’s where my journey led me.
