Cofounder and CMO Melissa Moody hosts Ryan Johansen - a professional stress management and productivity trainer who has real-life experience and carefully honed strategies in the areas of stress management and productivity.

Key topics include:

• Lived life experiences that lead to radical change
• Asking the hard questions both about how we THINK and WORK when it comes to stress management and productivity
• Mental wellness and the resilient mindset
• Digital boundary setting
• The perils of social media when it comes to our focus (and losing it)
