Where did the concept of time begin for you?College? Your boss? Your parents? Listen to today's minisode on the beingwell podcast to listen to a short 5-minute lesson on time, college, habits, and more. 

This week is all about trust and control. Eloise talks about the differences between letting go and trusting and letting go of control, and how they go hand in hand. She asks the questions, “Do you only trust when you can control the situation, plan, or person?” and “Is it harder to trust or let go of control?”

Talk about a question that will stop you in your tracks, especially if you crave control...As we think about asking for help or delegating work to others, it helps to be honest with ourselves about what is more important. That the task is done or that you did it?

This week, Eloise talks about the feeling of being paralyzed by your to-do list every week or feeling behind or like you are failing others. She also discusses how there is more than one right way to be well, and it starts with being aware of yourself in order to find your peace and reduce stress.

This week on the podcast, Eloise is discussing how unrecognized and competing priorities can be the root of our stress. We have aspirational priorities that we claim but are they really our priorities if you did an honest time audit?

When you are stressed and venting to someone you trust, do you tend to get more to dos by the end of the conversation? Based on the root of your stress you might be taking the wrong next right steps.  

This week Eloise talks about stopping the culture of poor boundaries, unrealistic expectations, working at all hours, and stress. She gives examples in the workplace from a leader's perspective and a team member's perspective.
