  • S1 Ep 10 Why Leaders Need to Make Mental Health a Priority - Nicky Young (Part 2/2)
    2020/09/10

    In the second part of this conversation with business consultant and former Group Managing Director of MullenLowe Salt, Nicky Young, we delve into the connection between mental health and the workplace. Lost productivity, challenges to talent retention and decreased levels of employee engagement are just some of the direct costs associated with an unhealthy work environment. Nicky explains why it’s not enough for companies to offer standalone solutions, like meditation and yoga classes, to combat this complex issue. She argues that building a healthy workforce requires emotionally-intelligent leaders who are able to identify and respond to the deeper structural concerns of their employees, which can often go unspoken. We also cover why making mental health a priority is especially important for leaders during times of uncertainty and economic hardship.

    Important note: If you are struggling with a mental health issue and need immediate help, please reach out to your doctor or local health service.

  • S1 Ep 9 Do You Need a Mental Health Break? | Nicky Young (Part 1/2)
    2020/08/29

    Stress and burnout have reached near epidemic proportions in the workplace—and we can expect more to come in this new Covid economy. Yet many leaders, and employees, suffer in silence. Business consultant and former Group Managing Director of MullenLowe Salt, Nicky Young, wants this to change. In this two-part conversation, Nicky shares her personal experience with burnout; how this inspired her to become a mental health advocate; and why leaders need to make mental health a business priority. We discuss how the stigma of mental illness persists, as well as some of the early warning signs to watch out for in yourself, your loved ones, or friends and colleagues.

    Important note: If you are struggling with a mental health issue and need immediate help, please reach out to your doctor or local health service.

  • S1 Ep 8 Stay Calm in the Midst of Chaos | Ian Brown
    2020/08/13

    No matter where in the world you live, it’s hard to miss the tension out there these days. Shouting matches, name-calling and one-sided debates are the new norm. With all of this emotion fuelling the political arena, where does this leave us?

    In this episode, we discuss what it takes to stay calm in the face of chaos. My guest, Ian Brown, is an award-winning photographer whose work focuses on the human condition. Long fascinated by the elusive American Dream, Ian set out to document what this notion means to Americans of all ages, races, identities, classes, religions, and ideologies.

    Over the course of twelve years, Ian travelled more than eighty thousand miles in an old truck, visiting all fifty states and connecting with hundreds of individual Americans. As a Canadian investigating the fabric of America, Ian offers an intimate look at this divided country. His stunning portraits, and collection of hand-written stories from the Americans he met along the way, are showcased in his new book, “American Dreams”.

    In our conversation, Ian shares what he learned about true diversity on his journey into the heart of America. He explains how listening is a key to bring us closer together, and why he remains hopeful for the future.

  • S1 Ep 7 The Potential of Technology for Good | Imai Jen-La Plante
    2020/06/18

    It’s hard to ignore the pace of technological disruption out there and, in particular, its impact on humanity. As a data scientist, Imai Jen-La Plante (@JLPlante) sits in the eye of the storm. Imai started her career in the classical sciences, earning a PhD in Physics from the University of Chicago. 

    Prior to her foray into virtual data, she worked as a researcher at CERN with the team contributing to the discovery of the Higgs Boson particle. Today she is the Chief Innovation Officer at Berney Associés; Co-Founder of Explorers Lab; and Chair of the Board for the Internet Society Switzerland Chapter (ISOC).

    Imai has the rare gift of being able to translate complex technological concepts into ideas we can all understand. In this episode we tackle them all. We discuss the good, bad and ugly of artificial intelligence; the erosion of consumer trust around social media and data privacy; how to recognise and break out of your online filter bubble; and the importance of building diversity into algorithms that determine so much of how we interact in a digitally-driven world.

    Imai gives insider advice on how to approach the tech tools we use more consciously. Her unique perspective from both sides of the tech front, as a data scientist and a consumer, helps us better understand the questions we should be asking—and the potential of technology as a force for good.

  • S1 BONUS: 6-Minute Flow Meditation with Mars
    2020/04/26

    In this 6-minute flow meditation, Mars guides us to face difficulty directly, in full acceptance, when things feel beyond our control. In doing so, we connect to a better sense of ease and flow, no matter what's happening in our lives. It's a perfect reboot to supplement your coffee break or take a pause after a particularly gruelling set of conference calls. This meditation is performed in a seated position, so it can be done anywhere you are. 

    (Important note: This meditation should not be performed while driving or engaging in any activity that requires full concentration.)

  • S1 BONUS: 20-Minute Yoga Nidra Meditation with Mars
    2020/04/26

    In this 20-minute yoga nidra (or sleep) meditation, Mars guides us to slow down our body and mind when it feels like everything is on overdrive. If you've never meditated before, this is a gentle way to ease into the practice and give yourself a reset. 

    For this meditation, you'll want to find a quiet place where you can lie down without being disturbed. It's kind of like taking a nap. Only, instead of sleeping, you create space in your mind and body for a deeper rest. 

    (Important note: This meditation should not be performed while driving or engaging in any activity that requires full concentration.)
