About this listen

Today’s episode is all about self-awareness and how it can transform the way we work, interact, and cope with the challenges of this demanding profession. Together, we’ll explore what self-awareness means, why it matters, and how you can begin developing it to improve your work and well-being.

Self-awareness is the foundation for personal and professional growth, particularly in high-stress environments like corrections. By understanding your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, you can begin to identify patterns that might be holding you back or fueling unnecessary stress. For example, recognizing triggers that lead to frustration or conflict can help you respond more calmly and rationally in tense situations. It’s not just about avoiding negative outcomes but also about fostering healthier interactions and creating a more supportive workplace culture.
