Hosts Emily Rodger and Dave Veale engage in an enlightening conversation with their guest, Dr. Dayna Lee-Baggley. As the Founder & CEO of Dayna Lee-Baggley & Associates and an experienced Registered Psychologist, Dr. Lee-Baggley brings a wealth of knowledge to the discussion on leadership, well-being, and navigating the challenges of today's world.
Throughout the episode, key themes emerge, centering on stress, resilience, and the changing landscape of work culture. Dr. Lee-Baggley dives into the impacts of stress and toxic positivity in the "new normal" post-pandemic world. She sheds light on the significance of safe relationships as a buffer against toxic stress and emphasizes that our culture has pushed the idea that we have more personal control than we do, leading to self-shame when faced with challenges.
A core concept introduced by Dr. Lee-Baggley is the "frontal lobe battery." This analogy resonates, as it's used to explain the brain's stress responses and how they relate to overall well-being. Dr. Lee-Baggley further emphasizes the responsibility of leaders in managing workplace stress, challenging the traditional notion of burdening employees with self-care as the sole solution.
As the conversation deepens, the focus shifts to the significance of psychological safety in teams and organizations. Dr. Lee-Baggley encourages leaders to embrace vulnerability and acknowledge their mistakes, fostering an environment where individuals feel safe to speak up and take calculated risks. The episode also delves into the mindset shift required for healthy habits, as Dr. Lee-Baggley challenges the notion that these habits must always be enjoyable to be effective.
Just before Dave and Emily give share their takeaways, Dave introduces us to Dr. Lee-Baggley's book, "Healthy Habits Suck," which he says is a must read.
