In this solo episode, host Rhiannon Rosalind dives into the underlying issues impacting women's advancement in the workplace. Why are women leaving their jobs en masse? How does this affect our economy? And, most importantly, what can we do to support and retain diverse women in leadership positions? This is not only an economic issue - it's a mental health one. Wellness belongs in business. Rhiannon highlights Conscious Economics' solutions framework (HeARTwork) backed by extensive research aimed at tackling the root causes of this mental health challenge. The HeARTwork movement is all about training, supporting, and retaining women in the workforce, with the goal of building a more mindful economy. We cannot build a more mindful economy without gaining a deeper awareness of ourselves and each other. A portion of this episode is a live recording from the HeARTwork: Advancing Women in Leadership Corporate Wellness Summit.

The return on investment is much greater when we focus on intricate holistic systems.From recalibrating our perspectives on employee health to redefining success beyond monetary gains, we explore the multi-dimensional currencies of business. Survival mindset with money will not serve us; it's time to embrace the holistic approach where crisis can be a catalyst for transformation.Tune in as we uncover the ripple effects of prioritizing emotional, physical, and environmental health in business decisions.

Rhiannon and Aseel discuss the benefits of their latest creation and why financial therapy is a necessary tool to help combat a sick economy.
