Whole Minds, Healthy Bodies


Health and Wellbeing in the Workplace

June 22, 2023

Welcome to “Whole Mind, Healthy Bodies” the podcast. Part of the 360 Health initiative from Aetna where the goal is improving your total health and wellbeing. 


What exactly is health and well-being and what does that mean in the workplace?


To help answer these questions and more your host Kai welcomes James Francis and William Wright.


James Francis is a progressive and innovative, presenter and thought leader, who has partnered with multiple organizations to enhance equity in their physical and virtual workplace environments. James has designed and facilitated numerous professional learning sessions in the areas of diversity, inclusion, and work life balance.  


James has served as the Director for DEI for Balancing Life’s Issues (BLI) for the past two years, where he has developed thoughtful, DEI content to support organizations, both large and small. He currently conducts mediations, consults with clients, and mentors other professional trainers to sharpen their presentation skills and techniques.  


William Wright is an accredited coach through IPEC and the International Coach Federation and has earned an Energy Leadership Master Practitioner certification as well.


Will spent 20 years as a personal trainer and was growing increasingly frustrated supporting people on the outer work only. Now, as a personal development coach, Will has been able to leverage his ability to connect, with his compassion, in a way that significantly serves others. Will’s clients have shared that he has been able to create spaces where they can truly get to the bottom of what’s holding them back and ultimately be at the choice to release what’s heavy – whether it’s stress, guilt, obligation, or self-doubt.
