The Wellbeing Paradox uncovers why wellbeing initiatives struggle and provides HR leaders with a fresh approach to create impactful change in complex, busy workplaces.
The Wellbeing Paradox: Why workplace wellness isn’t working and what to do about it guides HR leaders and wellbeing professionals through the messy realities of creating healthier workplaces. Instead of top-down mandates, it invites leaders to co-create solutions with their people, acknowledging real tensions and systemic challenges. With compassion and insight, the book reveals why even well-intended efforts often fail, how best practices can backfire, and why balancing individual care with organizational priorities is so hard.

By uncovering hidden paradoxes, embracing meaningful dialogue, and adopting flexible, iterative approaches, “The Wellbeing Paradox” offers tools for cultivating truly resilient cultures. It presents a path beyond token gestures and unrealistic expectations—one that honors complexity and the human experience at work. Drawing on real-world examples and practical strategies, this empowering guide helps leaders shape thriving, adaptive workplaces amid unrelenting pressures, constant change, and competing demands.

She works with purpose-driven leaders and organizations to develop strategic wellbeing solutions that address systemic, team and individual needs to prevent burnout and create healthy, sustainable performance.
