In this inspiring episode, we are joined by the three passionate founders of a groundbreaking company that is revolutionising wellbeing in the workplace. Their journey began with a simple series of stretches in a typical office environment, initiated by one of the founders who was battling fatigue and soreness from sitting for long periods. What started as an afternoon routine quickly gained momentum, spreading throughout the company and eventually becoming a scheduled activity that other organisations were eager to adopt.
Today, the founders are on a mission to empower people to prioritise their mental and physical health at work by making wellbeing accessible, convenient, and fun. They believe that wellbeing is not just a personal responsibility but a societal one, and they are committed to fostering a culture where health is front and centre in the workplace.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The origin story of the company and how a small stretching routine became a workplace-wide movement.
- The importance of mental and physical health in the workplace and why it’s essential for both personal well-being and organisational success.
- How the founders envision wellbeing as a societal responsibility, not just an individual concern, and how they are working to create a community around this mission.
- The practical steps they are taking to make workplace wellbeing more accessible and sustainable.
- The impact their platform has had on companies so far and how they are transforming workplace cultures.
