    3.3 Siding Against Stress with Rachel Lewis

    3.3 Siding Against Stress with Rachel Lewis

    The UK is in the grip of a mental health crisis.

    Some 20-30% of UK working adults showing signs of emotional exhaustion, and burnout has been stuck firmly on HR's agenda for the past four years.

    And while HR is well adapted to support employees' mental wellbeing – does the responsibility really lie fully on HR?

    In the latest episode of the HR Most Influential Podcast, Rachel Lewis, multi-award winning occupational psychologist and programme director at Birckbeck, University of London, sits down with former HR magazine editor Jo Gallacher to explore the suffocating world of stress.

    Nico Verresen: Become Friends with Stress and It Will Help You Win

    Nico Verresen: Become Friends with Stress and It Will Help You Win

    About Nico Verresen: Nico Verresen is a former elite-level athlete who has undergone world-class training. He is working with world-champion athletes, MDs, DEFI traders, CEOs, senior executives & top-level entrepreneurs. His top-level sporting career combined with extensive educational studies of the mind makes his approach highly effective and unique. Using the hypnosis practices and mindset strategies of world-class athletes, Nico trains high performers like you to turn your stress into a competitive advantage. With a career of over 12 years in professional fighting, Nico is a 5x Belgian, Benelux, European, and vice-world champion in Muay Thai. 4 world champions have prepared for their titles with Nico's coaching and mentorship. Nico is an MA, former university scholar, and published researcher at The Free University Of Brussels, Belgium. Check out the latest episode of our Conversational Selling podcast to learn more about Nico.

    In this episode, Nancy and Nico discuss the following:

    • The truth is you don't need less stress to achieve the life you desire.
    • Ways to embrace stress to elevate your performance, health, and relationships.
    • Nico’s explanation on why stress is a friend rather than an enemy. 
    • The impact of hypnosis on the mindset strategies of all these world-class athletes.
    • Hypnotic techniques in sales.


    Key Takeaways: 

    • Stress is there not to hurt you but to help you.
    • Those people who believe that stress is good and helps them, and those who have the highest stress levels live the longest, healthiest, and most productive lives.
    • The biggest challenge is not to start stressing about stress.
    • if you just keep grinding forward as hard and fast as possible, you will not have space to get to effectiveness.

    "So, if you do not stress about anything, the chance is very high that you have a bit of a lifeless life. What I've seen in research is that, well, and in my own life, the moments that I outperform myself were always the moments with the highest stress." – NICO.

    "The reason that fighting was so addictive to me and so wonderful, and I miss it still every day, is that it is make or break. You know each other right now. It's a bit unhealthy for my body, and I learned through that process the second thing that puts the absolute top from the sub-top. You know, I was subbed up, and I had everything in me to get to the absolute top, but I forced it too much. I kept on grinding, I kept on going forward, and I lost a little bit of pleasure. That's why my company is called Perform with Pleasure." – NICO.

    “Well, the people in sales, very often they're a specific type of people. They love the push, they love the grind, they go hard, they need their deadlines, they need fast movements, you know. So, very often this is like a temperament that very often is much more hypnotizable. Now in sales, a lot of people use it also, hypnotic techniques to sell. The problem that I've often found is that in the current market, people are much more suspicious, and then when you go with traditional hypnotic language patterns, they often don't work because it will sound weird, and people will feel something is off." – NICO.

    The Science of Staying Alert and Effective Under Pressure - E69

    Maybe you have experienced not being able to speak or think straight when being criticised by your manager or when under some form of pressure at work.

    Our brains threat response is activated by our external environment causing our body to respond in the flight, fright or freeze response, which cause many leaders performance to decline and can trigger a vicious cycle of self-doubt, self-blame, shame, guilt, even fear, making it all the more likely that you’ll freeze again when you encounter a similar situation.

    But, there is hope! There are things you can do to stay alert and effective under pressure and this is a skill every leader needs.

    Benefits @ Work: How to deal with workplace stress and not lead to burnout

    Benefits @ Work: How to deal with workplace stress and not lead to burnout

    Stress in the workplace can have many origins or come from one single event. It can impact on both employees and employers alike. It is generally believed that some stress is okay (sometimes referred to as “challenge” or “positive stress”) but when stress occurs in amounts that you cannot handle, both mental and physical changes may occur.

    The majority of employees experiencing burnout will remain at work. Being aware of changes in attitudes and energy can help with early identification. Employees may not realize that they are dealing with burnout and may instead believe that they are just struggling to keep up during stressful times. Stress, however, is usually experienced as feeling anxious and having a sense of urgency while burnout is more commonly experienced as helplessness, hopelessness, or apathy.

    Employees may not be aware of the negative impacts on their performance that this can have, such as increased errors or lower productivity. Employers and co-workers may attribute the changes to a poor attitude or loss of motivation. The negative effects of burnout can increase significantly before anyone recognizes or addresses the problem and unaddressed burnout can increase the chance of developing clinical depression or other serious conditions.

    Some of the signs and symptoms that an employee experiencing burnout may exhibit include:

    • Reduced efficiency and energy
    • Lowered levels of motivation
    • Increased errors
    • Fatigue
    • Headaches
    • Irritability
    • Increased frustration
    • Suspiciousness
    • More time spent working with less being accomplished

    Severe burnout can also result in:

    • Self-medication with alcohol and other substances
    • Sarcasm and negativity
    • Debilitating self-doubt
