✨Journeys of Empowerment✨ – Episode 19

What if well-being at work was the foundation for innovation and business growth? 

Today, I had the pleasure of speaking with Paola Brignoli, an expert in workplace well-being and leadership coaching. Paola’s personal and professional journey is a testament to the power of empowerment, hope, and courage in both personal growth and creating inclusive, mentally healthy workplaces.

Paola Brignoli’s journey from finance to workplace well-being is a powerful example of how embracing self-compassion, embracing change, and prioritizing mental health can transform not only individuals but entire organizations.

What we explored:

  • The importance of well-being in business: how prioritizing mental health leads to sustainable business growth and innovation;
  • The transition from finance to well-being: Paola’s journey of rediscovering her true passion and creating meaningful change in the workplace;
  • Leadership impact: the role of leaders in shaping workplace culture and fostering safe, inclusive environments;
  • Personal growth and self-compassion: Paola’s insights on balancing determination with self-care;
  • Navigating challenges and change: how Paola overcame personal and professional challenges and built resilience in the process.

Nuggets of empowerment:

  • Empowerment, hope, and courage: Paola’s three words for empowerment that have shaped her journey;
  • Embrace who you are: “your superpower might be connecting deeply with one person, not networking with 10”;
  • Extreme self-care: investing in yourself enables you to better support others without being selfish.
