Thriving At Work with Dr. Traci Cipriano

September 28, 2023 | by Patricia M. Barbarito

Business leaders are now giving employee well-being the quality of attention usually reserved for profit margins and revenue generation – which is spurring on even greater, positive change in the modern workplace. But is it possible for an individual to take charge of his/her own happiness at work? And, if so, where does one begin? Host Pat Barbarito, who knows a thing or two about navigating the challenging path to partnership and law firm ownership while raising a family and serving her community, welcomes Dr. Traci Cipriano to answer these questions and more.

Using the guiding principles of workplace well-being outlined in Traci’s book, The Thriving Lawyer, the duo explores:

  • The honeycomb of well-being;
  • WHY we should care about well-being in the workplace;
  • The importance of EQ (emotional intelligence), vulnerability, and sharing in relationship building;
  • How the very training that makes a great lawyer can be a detriment to his/her ability to self-reflect and connect;
  • The economic consequences for a workplace that prioritizes a culture of well-being;
  • The dark side of ignoring personal well-being, including financial stress, burnout, suicide, and substance abuse;
  • Solutions that enable a lawyer to continue practicing AND have deep personal connections, strong social support, along with authentic meaning and purpose;
  • The complexity of a multi-generational workplace and working with each generation’s attitude toward well-being;
  • Technology’s role in workplace well-being – friend or foe? – and so much more!

Not a lawyer? Don’t worry! You’ll still find Pat’s personal anecdotes, as well as Dr. Cipriano’s recommendations, to be useful in your own pursuit of personal well-being.
