Jill’s top well-being tips:
- Think about connecting to your values, your passions, your gifts, and a need. Think about the leadership space, or the place, that you want to change in the world.
- Consider your circle of control. What can I control to help me be as well as I can be? And when you’ve got that right, you can move into your circle of influence in helping other people.
- Carve out chill time – clear calendars when you’ve got a big week of stuff happening and find some downtime.
