The Wellness Paradox with Amy Green

The wellness industry is booming, yet burnout, stress and exhaustion continue to rise. So what if we've been focusing on the wrong solution?Welcome to Under the Rug at Work, where we shine light on the things that are normally swept under the rug. In this episode, our Founder and Chief Courage Officer, Nicole Turnbull, chats with Amy Green, speaker, author and wellbeing strategist, about her latest book, The Wellness Paradox, and why workplaces need to rethink how they approach wellbeing.Drawing on her background as a teacher, school leader and wellbeing expert, Amy explains why workplace wellbeing isn't about asking workers to be more resilient or adding another wellness initiative. Instead, it's about having the courage to identify what's really causing stress, burnout and overwhelm, then redesigning work to address those root causes.In this episode, we discuss:- Why wellbeing programs treat symptoms instead of causes- How leaders can uncover the real causes of burnout- The three questions every leader should ask- Why changing the conditions of work matters more than changing the workerThis conversation challenges many of the assumptions we've made about wellbeing at work and offers practical ways for leaders and organisations to build healthier, more sustainable workplaces.You can subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and YouTube, and share this episode with someone who's ready to rethink how wellbeing is approached at work.Connect with Amy 👇LinkedInInstagram Facebook YouTube Website
