Welcome to the wellbeing rebellion. My name is

Ian Ghazi Wella, and I'm a corporate wellbeing and

productivity consultant.

And my name is Becky Alec Bojay, a psychologist and behavioural

trim specialist.

We are the founders of Aurora, a corporate culture consultancy

that specialises in creating psychologically safe workplaces

that enable employees to thrive. For us. Wellbeing is personal. I

came from a corporate management background 15 years in oil and

gas, I had it all going for me, the career, the family, the

white picket fence, the whole shebang. Until it all came

crashing down spectacularly. I burnt out in a blaze of glory,

and ended up being signed off work for a year with work

related stress, anxiety, and depression. This was a

catastrophic blow, not just for me, my family and friends, but

also for the team that I left in the lurch of work. I was working

for the world's largest oil company, and I still crashed and

burned. I had access to a comprehensive EAP on site

occupational health, and one amazing boss, but it wasn't

enough. You see, the problem with employee wellbeing support

in most workplaces is that it puts the onus on the person

struggling to seek help. And when you are unwell, that is

just too big a burden to bear. It's not enough to say that your

door is always open. If you expect your employees to walk

through it unaided. We need to get better at supporting our

employees. And that is precisely what this podcast is designed to

help you do. Workplace wellbeing needs a new approach. The

rebellion is here, and it is long overdue.

So this podcast is specifically for the HR or business leader

who wants to implement robbing track intake and actually make a

difference to their employees. And the bottom line is we want

to create psychologically safe workplaces where employees are

empowered to bring their whole selves to work. We want to

create a culture that is inclusive, supportive, and

encourages everyone from shopfloor to boardroom to play

their part.

On the wellbeing rebellion podcast, we'll give you weekly

up to date, insights, strategies and tips that cover leadership

capability, executive burnout, mental health, equity, diversity

and inclusion and employee challenges such as retention,

productivity and emotional resilience. Sometimes, it'll be

just us. Others we'll interview relevant industry leaders and

experts and we may even host a q&a from time to time if you

behave yourselves. You can find us wherever you usually get your

podcast fixed, whether that be Apple Spotify, and we'll leave

that up to you. Be sure to subscribe. The wellbeing
