Are you flourishing at work, or could you be languishing? 

What creates true wellbeing in the workplace?

My guest on this episode is Corey Keyes, Professor Emeritus of Sociology at Emory University and Author, “Languishing: How to Feel Alive Again in a World That Wears Us Down.”

During our conversation Corey and I discuss: 

  • How "languishing" represents a state between depression and flourishing, characterized by feelings of emptiness and emotional numbness

  • The six domains of human excellence and their role as foundations for flourishing

  • Why actively engaging in the "Five Vitamins of Flourishing" is essential for mental wellbeing

  • The critical role of quality workplace relationships in preventing invisibility and promoting flourishing

  • How leaders can create conditions that support wellbeing and flourishing in the workplace
