What we’re looking at this week…
This week, we’re looking at… a bottle of water?
Brian Hallet is Founder and Chief Curiosity Alchemist at The BIG. In this LinkedIn post, he uses the example of a bottle of water to demonstrate how value and worth can be seen differently. He suggests that place is the key factor in the value of the bottle of water.
He uses this analogy to encourage us to find a space where we are valued and respected.
That can be at work, at home, or someplace else. If the people and culture around you don’t uplift you he writes, find something new, a space where we are respected and appreciated, and people who really appreciate your worth
Acceptance is one of I Am Here’s CLEAR values and skills: Compassion, Listening, Empathy, Acceptance and Real. Visit I Am Here to refresh your knowledge of these values and skills. See how we can show other people that we recognize their true worth.
Do you feel that your worth is recognized? How can people let you know that you’re cherished? Reach out to us on X and start a conversation.

What we're watching this week...
Continuing with the topic of feeling valued, this thought-provoking video, How to Inspire Lasting Change, looks at the importance of valuing people in the workplace. It also asks if our expectations of work are changing.
In the video, Zach Mercurio, PhD, says we’re reevaluating the cost of human dignity. We are setting new boundaries and demanding to be treated as human beings rather than human resources. In his view, a prime objective for leaders who want to create compelling, long-lasting, sustainable change is to "make sure that people feel like they matter and what they're doing matters."
At I Am Here, we believe mental health and wellbeing is supported by six pillars. This video speaks to two of them: Work and Career, which is about feeling fulfilled in our jobs; and Spiritual Wellbeing, which speaks to having purpose and meaning in our lives. I Am Here, human dignity, and making people matter, are at the center.
We have more information about the six pillars on the I Am Here Arena. If you don’t have access to the Arena, talk to us about adding it to your plan today.

What we’re quoting this week…
Within the world of mental health and wellbeing, true comfort stems from the profound approval we find within ourselves. To quote Mark Twain, “A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval.”
At I Am Here, we strive to empower individuals on their journey to self-acceptance,, which includes self-approval, and inner peace. When you approve of yourself, true comfort follows.
