Founder Podcast Feature: Chase Sterling on Workplace Wellbeing, AI, and the Future of Work
What happens when productivity keeps rising, but people feel more exhausted than ever?
In this episode of Wellable Weekly, Wellbeing Think Tank Founder and Executive Director Chase Sterling joins host Geoff Geredien to discuss workplace wellbeing, employee listening, AI, burnout, wages, and what it will take to build healthier organizations
A Timely Conversation About Work and Wellbeing
This conversation comes at a moment when many organizations are trying to balance efficiency, new technology, and the very real limits of human capacity.
Chase shares why workplace wellbeing cannot be reduced to a single program, benefit, or trend. Instead, it requires a broader look at leadership, policies, communication, environment, benefits, wages, and the everyday experience of work.
What This Episode Explores
This episode touches on the pressure to increase productivity, the rapid adoption of AI, and why new tools should reduce mental load rather than add to it.
Chase also discusses why employers need to be more strategic and less reactionary, especially when listening to employee feedback. As she explains, organizations do not need to ask every question. They need to ask better questions, respond honestly, and act on what they learn.
The conversation also explores what healthier employers are doing well: creating workplaces where people feel seen, heard, and valued.
Why Listen
For HR leaders, executives, wellbeing professionals, and anyone thinking about the future of work, this episode offers a practical and honest look at what it takes to create sustainable organizations with healthy, thriving people.
It is also a reminder that workplace wellbeing is not just about helping people cope with broken systems. It is about improving the systems themselves.
