How do you define well-being? Amy Hoch, a psychologist and associate director of the Wellness Center at Rowan University, said that well-being is how people create a life worth living. It's a way to help people -- including students, staff and faculty -- move in the direction of their highest potential.

Leaders at Rowan University have moved away from a Western medicine approach in well-being to help their students optimize their lives. This includes making social connections and acquiring a feeling of belonging to make life a little easier.

In this episode, Hoch describes how Rowan University has made its well-being programs a pillar at the institution. Her tips include to:

Identify influencers on campus
Approach the issue with prevention being top of mind
Seek student and employee input
Create programs and resources outside of the Wellness Center.
