Description

Resilience Agenda Radio is for people who want to go a step deeper in understanding mental health, well-being and the good life. We do this through the inspiring language, rituals and tools of Mental Fitness.We make you feel smart, challenged inspired, motivated and proud to talk about mental health in a totally new and approachable way. Each episode, we talk to experts and leading thinkers from around the world to discover new ideas, strategies and tools for developing, improving and maintaining our Mental Fitness – the key life skill of the 21st century. Mental health is a massive topic – so that too often it’s hard to understand, take action on and get excited about. Too often it’s framed by extremes and something to only worry about in a crisis. Resilience Agenda aims to change all that by making mental health more relevant, inspiring and engaging. We empower people to understand and develop their mental health through our inspiring idea of Mental Fitness – Just imagine if we could think about our Mental Fitness just like our physical fitness! In each episode we discover new insights and strateiges for our mental health & well-being and learn more about 10 steps of The Mental Fitness Toolkit. We cover the latest science on mindset, connection, optimism, gratitude, reframing, perspective, connection, writing, movement, resilience, personal values, goal-setting, habit-formation, behaviour change, burnout prevention, and what self-care and stress recovery really mean. Resilience Agenda Radio is hosted by Resilience Agenda founder, best-selling author and sought-after keynote speaker Hadleigh Fischer. Hadleigh’s mission is to change the way people relate to mental health so that it’s more positive, proactive and preventative and to turn Mental Fitness into a global movement.

In today’s episode with Nir Eyal we discuss how to overcome the challenges of distraction from social media, the news and procrastination. We talk about Nir’s Wall St Journal best-selling book ‘Indistractable’ and how it’s not our phones that cause us to become distracted, it’s our inability to better manage uncomfortable internal feelings. Nir shares with us how becoming Indistractable is set to become the ‘superpower of the 21st century‘, and in four easy-to-understand steps helps us learn to make our attention levels indestructable. We talk about the challenges that COVID-19 has on staying productive, especially while working from home, and the impact that expectations, our need for structure and forethought in planning our time has on staying connected to others, getting things done, and how to feel properly relaxed when we are unwinding. We cover the ways we can teach principles of attention and focus to our kids, so that they remain digitally literate, but socially engaged at the same time. Nir talks about how most advice about using digital technologies is actually unsustainable and proposes several practical ideas for you and your team about crafting your work environment for better mental health, productivity and connection.  In a fast-paced, wide-ranging and entertaining interview, Nir shares five years of in-depth research and his experience working in and around Silicon Valley, implementing and teaching behavioural design principles to leading technology companies and students.You won’t want to miss this interview with the world-class Nir Eyal.
