I'm always excited and appreciative to have experienced mental health professionals on my podcast to share and educate myself and my audience on their level of expertise in the mental health field. Dr. Gilmore has over 15 years of experience in emotional wellness, prioritizing self-care, healing trauma, and relationship preservation. When we think of mental health we often think about mental illness or trauma however emotional wellness (and unwellness) is a major component of mental health. Dr. Gilmore shared what emotional wellness and unwellness look like and ways to navigate through our normal human emotional bouts, and more importantly how emotional wellness (or unwellness) can impact us in the workplace! If we are not emotional well our work performance suffer, we can lose motivation and confidence. Dr. Gilmore provided some practical and relatable scenarios on what we can do to better impact these areas in our lives! I hope this episode is insightful to you!
