How do you build a work culture where people go home energized by the value they bring instead of depleted by the day they survived? Transform fear into courage and stress into accomplishment on this episode of the Work Positive Podcast with Dr. Joey Faucette. Jill Schulman, United States Marine Corps veteran, leadership consultant, and author of "The Bravery Effect," reveals how to create well-being within the work itself rather than trying to recover from toxic environments. Listen as Dr. Joey and Jill explore:

☀️ Why accomplishment drives happiness and well-being more than we realize ☀️ How to help people do really hard things while experiencing positive emotions ☀️ Simple ways to create value and feel valued in the flow of daily work ☀️ Why fear paralyzes talented people who otherwise know what to do ☀️ How asking for help accelerates your ability to accomplish brave goals

Jill transforms how leaders think about workplace well-being by proving that the solution isn't more benefits and apps, but helping people accomplish meaningful work that energizes them.

🔑 Key Insight: "I don't want people to go to work feeling like they're gonna suck the life out of me and then I go home depleted. I want them to feel energized by the value that they're bringing so they can go home and have that positive state."

💡 Your DOT (Do One Thing): Think of your most challenging goal right now and be brave enough to ask for help. Find someone who has accomplished something similar and call them for advice. Don't try to figure it out on your own.
