Social relationships; the next frontier of wellbeing.

My team and I have spent last the last decade promoting core elements of wellbeing such as sleep, breathwork and movement, and these ideas have helped thousands of people increase their energy, mood and motivation. However, things have changed profoundly since 2020. Hybrid and remote working are a permanent reality for many people, and AI is an increasingly large part of our lives, threatening to reduce the meaningful interactions we have with other people. That’s why we think the next frontier of wellbeing will be social relationships; humans need to bond and connect to be happy, healthy and resilient.

Sustainable people drive sustainable businesses.

As part of your ESG strategy it’s important to consider the sustainability of your most important resource – your people. Sustainable people drive sustainable businesses, and we need sustainable people to solve the challenges that your business will face, whether that’s sales, innovation or increasing market share. Personal Sustainability is having the tools, resources and mindset to promote and maintain good wellbeing, which is vital to sustain high performance

The Cadence Approach keynote shows your teams how to beat burnout and have more fun by introducing cadence into their daily lives. Cadence is about managing energy, and this interactive, fun keynote is brought to life by Leanne through the power of storytelling. First, identify the big events coming up in your professional and personal life; then prepare by making small improvements in sleep, mental health and energy; complete the task of event, and then allow your nervous system to recover by prioritising slivers of recovery into the day.

Learn to manage change:
Cadence is about managing energy. Leanne’s Cadence Approach keynote will show your teams how to follow this approach so they can beat burnout and perform when they need to:

  • PREDICT when the big events are in your life by asking ‘when are your Wimbledon’s?’
  • PREPARE by small changes that have a big impact by ‘building your bulletproof’
  • PERFORM when you need to and ‘respect your red flags’ for good health and vitality
  • RECOVER via slivers of recovery and deliberate rest because ‘backing off beats burnout’

Today’s business environment is fast-paced and demanding, and the COVID-19 pandemic has added new stresses to people’s lives. The ability to adapt to ever-changing circumstances is a vital skill, and one which we can learn from some of the most resilient people in society – athletes. Even at the most elite level, an athlete will not expect to be operating at peak performance all year round. They
will look ahead to the schedule, get ready, perform to the best of their ability and then rest. We call this the Cadence Approachâ„¢ and
it will show your teams how to minimise risk of burnout, manage their energy and have more fun by following the 4-step process:

PREDICT when the big events are in your life by asking ‘when
are your Wimbledons?’

PREPARE for those events the way an athlete would by ‘building
your bulletproof ’

PERFORM when you need to and ‘respect your red flags’

RECOVER by taking your foot off the gas pedal – ‘backing off
beats burnout’

It was great to collaborate with Leanne at our Summer event. Leanne is straightforward to work with, she ensured we had ample time pre-event to connect so she could understand the objectives of the day, and how they would relate to the keynote speech on the Cadence Approach.

Our teams were positive, in that they could underpin our key business drivers with a great message around personal energy, high performance, and overall well-being. Leanne was super easy on the day, and we appreciated that she made time chat to with people informally over lunch. Thank you!
