What does wellbeing mean to you?
Well-being, to me, encompasses a holistic balance between physical, mental, emotional, and social health. It means feeling fulfilled, energized, and resilient in life's personal and professional aspects. It’s the ability to thrive, handle stress, and engage meaningfully with the world. Well-being also includes having a strong support system, maintaining a sense of purpose, and cultivating habits that promote long-term health and happiness. Ultimately, well-being is about living a life where self-care, growth, and meaningful connections are prioritized.
