Episode 61 of The Icehouse podcast, hosted by Bryar Stewart, is with Dr. Sven Hansen, the founder of The Resilience Institute. The mission of The Resilience Institute is to promote sound physical, emotional and mental wellbeing and now, it is more important than ever. The Resilience Institute empowers organisations and leaders who believe that when people grow, business grows.


This conversation is based on a recent article from The Resilience Institute called ‘Leadership Now – How to reconnect and re-energise'. Bryar and Sven discuss the common themes in leadership right now and actions owners and leaders can take to support themselves and their teams.

In recent conversation with leaders, five common themes present:

#1: Feeling ‘exhausted’, ‘flat’ and ‘tired’

#2: Concern about their people’s state of wellbeing

#3: Anxiety over an uncertain future – economic, conflict, climate, covid, etc.

#4: Struggle to overcome daily grind and develop vision for the future

#5: Unsure how to reconnect and re-engage with purpose and passion

Sven dives deeper into where business owners and leaders can go for further support, and how to lead with empathy and courage.
