If health underpins great work, why do so many workplaces treat it like a perk?
In this episode, Paul and Matt examine the gap between surface-level wellness offerings and real employee needs—then share how to shift toward readiness and resilience without overhauling everything.
Five Key Learnings:
- Lived experience (burnout, caregiving, fatigue) doesn’t match company messaging.
- Health is still treated as “individual responsibility,” not a team design issue.
- Small moves like RMS (Rest, Movement, Socializing) beat flashy programs.
- Teams can change norms—leaders just have to start modeling them.
- Expect the shift: from “treat it when it breaks” to “design for health.”
