Today's guest is Jana Dowling, founder of Arkeo, an app launching this October that empowers individuals and organisations to take control of their mental fitness.  Arkeo is one of those innovations which truly has the power to transform how we live our lives. People usually feel quite helpless when it comes to taking care of their mental health, however, what if we could actually start tracking it, working on it, improving it? Wouldn’t that make everyone feel a little more, in control? In this episode, Jana shares how individuals and companies can benefit from tracking mental fitness. We discuss existing challenges in the mental health area, and why a different approach is necessary. We also deep-dive into future trends in this space: will mental health support become an expectation in the workplace? Where can you draw the line between what is the employees’ and what is the employers’ responsibility? All of that and more in the following conversation.

We recently had a chat with George Taktak, Founder and CEO of How Mental, the mental movement on a mission to support everyone in prioritising their mind. With a community of over 660 000 people on Instagram, the How Mental team knows a thing or two about how to create a culture of trust, inclusivity and care. In this conversation, we discuss all things mental health. We look at what burnout actually is and how it is impacting employees in today’s working environment. We explore how George takes care of the mental wellbeing of the team, their company culture and ideas to encourage business leaders to open up about their mental health. Finally, we look at the challenges preventing people from accessing mental health support and potential solutions to overcome this.

Today our guest is Michelle Davies, VP of Operations at WeFarm, the world’s largest knowledge network and marketplace for small-scale farmers. WeFarm was ranked amongst the top startups to work for in the UK, and in this episode, Michelle shares some behind-the-scenes of how they’ve built such a great culture. We discuss a controversial topic, work mode. Does the traditional office continue to be the best mode of work, or is it possible for companies like WeFarm, that are remote-first, to tap into even more advantages from working fully remotely? We look into how WeFarm supports the mental and physical health of employees, as well as how they foster diversity and inclusion. The latter is pretty amazing at WeFarm, as Michelle reveals that their tech team only, has members living in 5 different countries and representing 10 different nationalities. Finally, we discuss trends and challenges that you can expect to see in the HR sector in the coming years; I’m confident that these will be invaluable for you to stay ahead of the curve.
