What if the problem isn't your job...but your experience of work?

In this episode of Powerful on Purpose, Leslie Capps sits down with Lindsay Barnett, award-winning author, speaker, workplace experience strategist, and team coach, to explore workplace culture, employee wellbeing, burnout prevention, work-life balance, leadership, AI in the workplace, and creating healthier work experiences.

Whether you're a leader, entrepreneur, or employee, this conversation offers practical ways to create more fulfillment and purpose at work.

Lindsay believes we have more influence over our workplace experience than we often realize. She shares how self-awareness, clear boundaries, meaningful hobbies, and role modeling healthy behaviors can transform not only our own work lives but also the culture around us. One of her favorite concepts—"leaving loudly"—encourages leaders and employees alike to model that life outside of work matters.

Leslie and Lindsay also explore burnout, employee wellbeing, the future of work, and how artificial intelligence can either enhance or diminish the human experience depending on how organizations choose to implement it. Rather than chasing productivity alone, Lindsay encourages us to design workplaces where both people and businesses can thrive.

In this episode you'll learn:
✅ How to create a healthier relationship with work
✅ Why self-awareness is the foundation of workplace wellbeing
✅ The power of hobbies and life outside the office
✅ What "leaving loudly" teaches about leadership
✅ How AI is changing the future of work
