You're fine, how am I? Learning & Development Self-care

I love this comic by Dan Piraro of Bizarro comic fame.

Makes me think of self-care & wellness.  As human resource folk, trainers &/or learning & development specialists we can focus so much on our clients, our participants, our learners that we forget to lean into ourselves.

How are you? Really?

I remember once having drinks with a diverse group including a German woman who had immigrated to Canada.  She recalled the first time a store clerk asked her how she was.  She was utterly gobsmacked that someone would ask & didn’t know how to reply.

Whether you tell the world, your colleague, your best friend, your partner or simply keep it to yourself, how are you?
