I specialize in workplace wellbeing, mental health and suicide prevention. Let's get more people, more help, sooner.
From September to December your ATB Wellness team is giving you lots of ways to rejuvenate and build your resilience.
Every two weeks we will give you four bite sized pieces of wellness for you to pull from internal ATB Wellness Community as well as the internal shared “ATB Wellness” calendar. You'll get to hear about the wellness journey of an ATB leader, listen to a Wellness Wednesday, learn more about one of ATB’s wellness resources and try out a new behavior to role model.
Here's all the details for the months of September and October:
