The Jill Cruz Podcast

If you want to be your best self, you have to manage your work-home interferences. Mindie Barnett is an entrepreneur on a journey to pursue an encore career in psychology and shares her research on burnout syndrome with us. Burnout is now a medically recognized syndrome that can lead to fatigue and many other serious problems. To avoid becoming depleted, we must learn to separate our work and home time and change how we communicate with our coworkers during our downtime. It may seem counterproductive, but self-care that involves being less available outside of work hours can actually lead to being a better and more reliable team member at work. Remember to take time for self-care, you don't have to jeopardize your health for your career!

What is The Jill Cruz Podcast?

If you are a woman in leadership and/or aspiring for greater leadership and you are looking to have it all; success in your career, personal life, and health, you're going to love this podcast season.

I am incredibly passionate about this topic because I believe that as women leaders we can have it all! We don't have to settle for being successful in just one area of life such as our careers. We can orchestrate a life that is fulfilling, pleasurable, and healthy in all areas. We are all a "work-in-progress" but it's important to BELIEVE we can have it all or we surely won't get that.

We will be speaking about what it takes to be a successful leader AND have a thriving personal life. Topics include passion, purpose, grit, compassion, self-awareness, thought leadership, self-care, wellness, visionary thinking, and strategic leadership.
