Written by Bev Attfield | Sep 30, 2019 5:00:00 PM

Imagine working for a company that gives every employee 30 minutes of personal time every day to improve and make themselves a priority. Too good to be true? Not so at StayWell, where CEO Nicole Latimer introduced daily “Bean Time” to support individual wellness and personal growth.

This sounds like a tremendous commitment and investment, especially with over 600 employees. But Nicole believes in walking the talk and she’s building a culture of wellbeing, motivation, and self-care. Employees use the time for physical activity, reading, special interest conversations, and much more. The key is that every person does something that matters to them personally.

If you’d like to hear why Nicole believes it’s important to make yourself a priority, and get honest-to-goodness tips on how to start, take a listen to this episode of People at Work. You’ll hear that time and purpose are key ingredients to investing in yourself, and maximizing your health and happiness.
