workplace wellness
supporting your employees' optimal physical and mental well-being is essential for fostering a thriving workplace. recent statistics highlight the pressing need for workplace wellness initiatives:
stress and burnout: a quarter (25%) of UK workers report feeling unable to cope with workplace stress, and 79% are experiencing moderate-to-high stress levels, with younger employees (16-24) and women showing the highest stress levels. signs of burnout are becoming more common, with 63% of UK employees now showing symptoms like exhaustion and disengagement, up from 51% two years ago. (mhfa portal, 21 nov. 2024)
implementing comprehensive workplace wellness programmes can lead to significant improvements in employee health and productivity. proactive measures, such as early intervention and a focus on prevention, retention, rapid rehabilitation, and return-to-work strategies, can improve employee well-being, reduce absenteeism, and boost overall productivity.
how i can help?
-
these are typically one-hour sessions focused around sharing practical, evidence-based tools, to inspire employees to implement healthy and sustainable changes in their daily lives.
topics include the female story, fertility health, navigating menopause, optimising digestion, sleep, energy, hormones and reducing stress.
-
these 45-minute one-to-one consultations will focus on the employee’s personal health goals, and provide foundational guidance to reach them.
before the consultation, they will need to complete a short questionnaire and a 3-day food & lifestyle diary, which we explore together in the session.
-
a month-long series of more than 50 different activities and lectures for all employees. the schedule includes everything from reflexology, yoga, pilates, meditation, and PT classes to the not so expected rave-ercise, trapeze lessons, pole dancing, floristry lessons, a walking map to nearby art galleries and public spaces, cooking classes and a range of lectures covering creativity, leadership and overall wellbeing.
having run numerous successful wellness months for global advertising agencies, i am available to consult with your HR team on how to create and implement yours.
please contact me to discuss your exact needs.
-

Jo’s session was extremely insightful. While I have already worked in the women’s health space and felt I already knew a bit about my cycle, I learnt so much in only an hour and feel way more informed about how to manage my cycle and have taken away some real tangible steps to improve my menstrual health. Can’t recommend it enough! - Andrea, WPP

"I just wanted to thank you for the incredibly insightful talk this week at Sea Containers. I took away so much valuable information, and it came at a perfect time as I’m making lots of changes and becoming more mindful about what I’m putting into my body. I really appreciate the time and effort you put into sharing your knowledge - it was amazing. If you’re hosting any other talks, I’d be very interested in joining as they’re so beneficial." - Rani, WPP

"Enjoyed our hour session about gut health at our office. It was short but full of so much meaty information about the gut and what we could do to look after it. Left feeling empowered with the gut knowledge, and looking forward to a healthier gut." - Jennifer, Landor

"I learned a lot from your session. The presentation was very well-structured, explaining the science behind gut health in a clear and accessible way, and offering practical solutions we could try. Even during the Q&A, it felt easy to open up and have a discussion. You listened to everyone’s stories with genuine consideration and empathy, creating a warm, understanding environment that made it comfortable for us to be vulnerable and share. You presented the content in a way that was truly “digestible” (excuse the pun!), and you took the time to pause for audience input and engagement. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the session and left with heaps of knowledge to put into practice. While I was already aware of some solutions to improve gut health, I have specific conditions that mean I can’t always follow the usual dietary guidance. I really appreciated how you took the extra time after the session to share tailored advice for my situation—not many people go that extra mile, and it meant a lot!" - Yan, WPP
