Mental Fitness & Wellbeing - Is It All in My Mind? with Philip Dyer

Being great at work isn’t just about turning up and doing. You have to be in the right mindset. 

Great companies understand that happy, healthy staff creates a better, stronger company. 

To discuss this we are joined by Philip Dyer, the Founder of Healthy Leaders Academy who helps leaders identify their barriers to personal growth. 

We touch on how companies build success through culture, and why that begins at the top.

About the Podcast

The Wellbeing Rebellion
Welcome to The Wellbeing Rebellion, an award-winning podcast.

We’re Ngozi Weller and Obehi Alofoje, Directors at Aurora — a leadership and organisational effectiveness consultancy.

This podcast explores how the way organisations are led shapes performance, trust, wellbeing and culture over time.

The challenge with many approaches to wellbeing and culture is that they place responsibility on individuals to cope, rather than examining the leadership decisions, behaviours and systems that create the conditions people are working within.

This is where the conversation needs to shift.

On The Wellbeing Rebellion, we explore leadership behaviour, organisational systems and decision-making under pressure through honest conversations with senior leaders and advisors navigating real organisational complexity.

Some episodes are just us. Others bring in leaders and experts reflecting candidly on what works, what doesn’t, and what leadership requires in practice.

If you’re responsible for people, culture or organisational performance — and want to think more critically about how leadership shapes outcomes — this podcast is for you.
