Ditch the Flooberries: the bold mindset for founders ready to lead with authenticity

In a world obsessed with opinions, expectations, and playing it safe, a new breed of entrepreneurs and startup founders is emerging.

It’s all about not giving a single fluffy, sparkly, cheese-filled care about other people’s judgments. And trust me, this attitude is a total game-changer.

For many the idea of planning and running a large scale event might automatically get your heart rate pumping, and it certainly did for me earlier in my career. I’d worry about the slightest details with lots of anxious thoughts and sleepless nights in the run up to anything I was working on.

The entrepreneur’s guide to flexible mindfulness

In today's high-speed business landscape, entrepreneurs face unprecedented pressure. The demands of building companies while navigating technological disruption create unique stress patterns that traditional wellness advice often fails to address.

The rise of therapeutic gaming: how mixed reality is transforming stress relief

Gaming has traditionally been seen as a source of entertainment, competition, or escapism. However, a growing trend is challenging these perceptions: therapeutic gaming. With mixed reality (MR) technology at the forefront, gaming is emerging as a powerful tool for stress relief and self-care – redefining how people approach "me time" in today’s fast-paced world.

Recovering from burnout taught me the strength in asking for help

It started with severe insomnia. At my worst, I was only getting two hours of continuous sleep a night, and that’s on the good days. This went on for 18 months. 18 months of broken nights, waking up more exhausted than I’d gone to bed, and trying to navigate my life through a fog of fatigue so intense, I sometimes couldn’t even remember what day it was.

Why the smartest founders are choosing regulation over hustle

We’ve glamorised burnout for far too long. In the entrepreneurial world, being ‘busy’ has become the gold standard. Stress is seen as a natural by-product of success, and exhaustion is practically a badge of honour.

The reframe game: turning startup stress into sass

Let’s be real, startup life isn’t always what it seems to be on Insta… we all know there’s often a tough reality behind some of those smiles, beyond midnight working, client calls at dawn, all whilst trying to juggle a million spinning plates… As brilliant as the entrepreneurial founder’s life is, it can also come with a heavy dose of stress.

Preventing burnout: the role of personalised coaching in modern business services

The way we work has undergone pronounced changes in recent years – the convergence of political instability, economic volatility, and ongoing global conflicts, coupled with transformative accelerators including COVID-19, Black Lives Matter, and movements such as #MeToo has dramatically altered our view of workplace culture and employee wellbeing.
