Do Good, Be Well: Rethinking Work and Wellbeing for Social Entrepreneurs

Action-oriented, this workshop will support founders/social entrepreneurs to think together about why their own wellbeing matters in the context of their work; what their attitudes and beliefs about wellbeing are when it comes to themselves; and what changes they could make in order to start rebalancing doing good and being well.

Facilitated by Laura Love-Petschl, Founder of Between Humans, will also work together with participants to identify how to prioritise their wellbeing in implementable steps, while holding each other gently accountable for taking action for our wellbeing.

She will cover:

• The interconnections of founder wellbeing, authentic leadership and sustainable social and environmental impact.
• Recognising and releasing core limiting beliefs (both individual and systemic) that underpin current thoughts and behaviours, and which lead us to de-prioritise founder wellbeing.
• How to think about wellbeing from a holistic, ‘whole-life’ perspective.
• Personalised wellbeing reviews and actionable plans for rebalancing wellbeing and work.
• Opportunities to connect meaningfully with other social founders, social entrepreneurs and change makers.

This is a workshop for anyone who is building or leading a social enterprise; a business with a social, environmental or community purpose; or a non-profit organisation.

Laura Love-Petschl is a grassroots and community leadership coach and the founder of Between Humans, a social enterprise which is repurposing coaching as a social justice practice.

Laura partners with people who are trying to make a difference in their communities and in the world. She believes that leaders’ lived experience, passion and values are their greatest assets in creating social change, and that burnout is not inevitable. Through bespoke, accessible and affordable coaching and workshops, she supports leaders’ professional, personal and organisational growth; helping to build their capacity to create positive, sustainable social change in their communities whilst taking care of their own wellbeing as human beings.

Laura brings multifaceted, intersectional and systemic lenses to the challenges of grassroots and community leadership and social change.
