What if the key to thriving at work and in life came down to one word: connection?

In this episode, I’m joined by Andrea O’Grady, Wellness and Mindset Coach, Workplace Wellbeing Consultant, and founder of The Wellness Edge. After 15 years in the high-pressure world of retail and buying, Andrea pivoted into health and wellness, dedicating the past 15 years to helping individuals, leaders, and organisations build resilience and create cultures of wellbeing.

We explore the importance of connection to self, to others, and within workplaces as a foundation for personal fulfilment and professional success. Andrea shares her expertise on stress, burnout, and resilience, alongside practical strategies for fostering engagement, empathetic leadership, and sustainable wellbeing practices.
