Lead Culture with Jenni Catron 213 | Permission to be Unproductive with Jon Seidl and Jenni Catron
There is always something to be anxious about, and it feels like our culture is more anxious than ever before. So, how do we identify where this anxiety is coming from and gain the tools to address it in a healthy way?
Jenni is joined by returning guest, Jon Seidl. Jon is the founder and president of The Veritas Creative, a digital media consulting and content creation firm. For over a decade he has been telling stories. He’s written over 6,000 of them, first after helping start a top-50 news site, then as the editor-in-chief of the popular non-profit, I Am Second, and also created and oversaw Kirk Cameron’s media venture, TheCourage.
Seidl’s passion is to help people with mental health struggles, while also sharing what he’s learned telling stories for—and working with—some of the media’s biggest names and organizations, including Glenn Beck, Kirk Cameron, and Chip and Joanna Gaines. He graduated with a degree in politics, philosophy, and economics from The King’s College in New York City and currently resides in Dallas, with his wife and two children.
In this week’s episode, Jon and Jenni talk about the difference between stress/anxiety and clinical anxiety and why that matters, why we have permission to be unproductive, how to diagnose where your anxiety is coming from, how to reduce anxiety in your workplace culture, and more.
