Innovation in Compliance with Tom Fox

Innovation comes in many areas, and compliance professionals must be ready for and embrace it. Join Tom Fox, the Voice of Compliance, as he visits with top innovative minds, thinkers, and creators in the award-winning Innovation in Compliance podcast. Today, we begin a 3-part podcast series with Irina Alexander and Jen Hardy, the founders of Academy Of MotivAction. In part 1, we discuss the hidden cost of high-stress careers.

We take a deep dive into the costs and impacts of high-stress professions. They discuss the universal toll of pressure in male- and female-dominated fields, the detrimental effects of hustle culture, and how societal norms often glamorize overworking. Jen and Irina emphasize the importance of self-awareness, emotional regulation, and the need for proactive care. They share personal anecdotes and professional insights on mitigating the negative impacts of stress, providing practical and neuroscience-based strategies through their CARES program. The discussion aims to destigmatize seeking help and promote healthier, more sustainable work habits.

Join us tomorrow where we discuss Tactical Resilience: How Awareness & Self-Mastery Shape Performance.
