Welcome to this week’s episode of the PEARRM Services Leadership Wellbeing Series! Today, we’re diving deep into the intersection of leadership and well-being with the incredible Debbie Goodman.

As an entrepreneur with over two decades of experience, Debbie has seen it all. Once a self-confessed workaholic, she shares how becoming a parent transformed her outlook on balancing work and life. Debbie’s mission? To build workplaces where people—especially career moms—don’t have to compromise their personal lives for professional success.

In this episode, we cover:

🎯 The Leadership Journey: Debbie’s candid story about juggling career and family during the global financial crisis and how it led to her passion for well-being.

🎯 Role Models Matter: Why leaders must practice what they preach when it comes to well-being and vulnerability.

🎯 Well-Being in Action:

• The power of no-agenda “chit chat” meetings that foster trust and connection.

• Introducing therapy benefits and how her team overcame stigma to embrace this vital resource.

• Celebrating life’s moments—both big and small—and creating a culture where family comes first.

Key Takeaways:

1️⃣ Well-being starts with leadership. Leaders must normalize self-care and flexibility while recognizing life’s inevitable chaos.

2️⃣ Therapy is a game-changer. Debbie shares how making therapy accessible helped her team thrive during COVID and beyond.

3️⃣ Connection matters. Simple practices like chit chats can transform team dynamics and build deeper bonds.

Debbie’s wisdom reminds us that creating a culture of well-being isn’t just good for people—it’s good for business. 💼✨
