Why Wellbeing Matters: Integrated approaches to Workplace Wellbeing & Resilience - Stories of Impact

  • Mitcham Village Institute 103 Princes Road Mitcham Australia (map)

Explore practical ways to create healthier, more inclusive workplaces by focusing on self-care, resilience, and disability inclusion - helping individuals and teams thrive while preventing burnout.

At the core of a thriving business is a supportive, inclusive workplace culture—one that not only values psychological wellbeing but actively dismantles systemic barriers. Especially when it comes to disability inclusion, it's time to shift the narrative:
💡 Let’s move from “dis-abilities” to celebrating diverse abilities, recognising that innovation is fuelled by embracing varied perspectives.
💡 Rethinking workplace structures, language, and access creates an environment where everyone can contribute fully and authentically.

The ROI of wellbeing and inclusion is profound: higher engagement, reduced burnout, better retention—and a workplace where humanity meets high performance.

REFLECTIONS FROM THE DAY

The workshop was a powerful reminder that workplace wellbeing is not a ‘nice to have’ – it’s a strategic imperative. Tamara created a space where lived experience and leadership could meet, with a deeply human-centred approach that stayed with me long after.

I was struck by the idea of second and third-degree burnout and how it ripples across teams.

Annabelle’s meditation, and the powerful stories from Jan and Melissa, reminded me of the strength in lived experience and inclusive practices.

Tamara spoke about burnout with both strategy and empathy – offering practical tools while reminding us to choose work that’s fulfilling. She delivered a session that felt both professional and deeply human.”

I left with a new understanding of the burnout-growth curve and how leaders can support rather than judge.

Jan’s resilience, Melissa’s advocacy and Annabelle’s mindfulness practices together created an inspiring, holistic conversation on inclusion and wellbeing.
