How can business leaders balance the needs of their company, themselves, and their workers? When it comes to feelings, we often hear, and understand the side of the employee. But what many do not realize is that being an employer, especially one who cares about their staff, can carry its own burden of stress.In this episode, we meet “Alison”, a dedicated wellness practitioner struggling with a belief that many leaders hold deeply: “I’m responsible for my employee’s well-being.” What starts as discomfort around giving feedback unfolds into a deeper conversation about boundaries, identity, and empathy. By the end, she’s not just clearer about how to lead — she’s more connected to herself and her values. And she sees that taking action in alignment with her own needs can ultimately serve others more than self sacrifice.This episode is for you if you've ever felt burdened by the emotional weight of leadership, or if you simply want to get a peek into how it sometimes feels to be the boss. ****Sarah Climenhaga, the host of Your Thoughts at Work leads guests, usually anonymous, through the work-related beliefs that limit both personal happiness and professional satisfaction.
