Come As You Are' at Work (Terms & Conditions Apply) with Farah Harris

In this episode of The WorkWell Podcast™, Jen Fisher speaks with Farah Harris, licensed psychotherapist, workplace wellbeing expert, and CEO of Working Well Daily. Her book "The Color of Emotional Intelligence" challenges us to rethink what authenticity and emotional intelligence really mean across different cultures and identities in the workplace.

Episode Highlights:

The hidden costs of "bringing your whole self to work"
Why emotional intelligence looks different across cultures and backgrounds
How our family dynamics shape our workplace emotional expression
The real price of fitting into "professional" culture
What looks like "high EQ" might actually be a survival strategy
Why declaring "safe spaces" doesn't make them safe
The problem with one-size-fits-all approaches to emotional intelligence
How power dynamics affect workplace authenticity
The importance of having "safe people" to process workplace experiences

Quotable Moment:
"If you can't take what you're learning outside of the four walls of the workplace, then is it truly applicable? Is it truly authentic?"
- Farah Harris

Lyra Lens:
We're excited to introduce Lyra Lens, a new segment with our friends from Lyra Health. "The beauty of inclusion and diversity at work is shifting from 'why do you do it like that?' to 'what can I learn from someone who does it differently?'" Andrea Holman shares this and other insights in today's Lyra Lens segment, where she joins Jen Fisher to discuss cultural humility in the workplace.
