In this episode of The Quest for the GoodLife, we’re redefining what’s possible in workforce benefits, disability services, and staffing solutions.
Join Dr. Mike Strouse, Ivo Ivanov, and special guests Lauren Vohland and Megan McKinney Todd as they dive deep into what it truly takes to build a thriving workforce in care services. From innovative benefit structures and staffing models to the power of flexibility, personal choice, and work-life balance, this conversation might just change your mind about benefits at your company.

How can organizations retain top talent while operating in an industry with limited funding? What if we reimagined benefits to better serve both caregivers and those they support? And how can thinking beyond traditional compensation—like housing, transportation, and scheduling—lead to a win-win-win for employees, organizations, and the people they serve?

Through personal stories, industry insights, and a few movie references (yes, Indiana Jones makes an appearance!), this episode is packed with actionable takeaways for HR professionals, disability service providers, and anyone passionate about creating sustainable, people-first workforce solutions.

Listen now to discover how GoodLife is rewriting the rules.
