Right now, times are tough, and nearly everyone is feeling it. From my conversations with people leaders and wellbeing champions, I know the challenges you’re up against. I’m Sarah McGuinness, founder of Revolutionaries of Wellbeing (ROW) and a wellbeing expert with a background in psychology. In 2020, I burned out spectacularly, and recovery was a long road. As I shared my story across media and keynote speeches, I realised just how many others had been through a similar experience. That’s when I knew it was time to take things up a gear and focus on breaking burnout culture - for good. Hence the name, Revolutionaries of Wellbeing (ROW). This podcast exists because the cost of burnout is too high. We’re losing out on the best of people and businesses because of something preventable. With 57% of New Zealanders at high risk of burnout, and similar trends worldwide, it’s clear we need fast, practical, evidence-based solutions. While episodes drop sporadically, each one is packed with real stories, expert insights, and practical tools to help you build a healthier, more sustainable workplace. This podcast is not just about burnout itself, but also about topics like inclusivity, bullying, menopause, financial health, psychological safety and more. It’s about changing how we live and work, for the better. And ROW is more than just conversations about improving wellbeing at work - it’s a community of HR and health and safety professionals and people leaders working towards so much more. We’re showing that getting workplace practices right can lead to real business success. So tune in and join us as we tackle burnout culture and drive real change - one awesome episode at a time.

In business, it is well known that you cannot manage what you cannot measure. With the increased focus on wellbeing at work, there is a growing demand to accurately measure employee wellbeing, track progress and deliver results.
Of course, there are many ways to evaluate workplace wellbeing, but where to start and what’s realistic?
In this episode, ROW's Dr Mark Wallace-Bell joins us to discuss the benefits and potential pitfalls of measuring wellbeing in the workplace. We discuss organisational measures, such as engagement surveys, and personal measures, such as wearable devices.
We also explore which metrics are important and how to demonstrate the effectiveness of wellbeing initiatives in the workplace.
Mark is an internationally recognised health behaviour change specialist and the Behaviour Change Lead at ROW. He has facilitated health behaviour change programmes for numerous organisations in New Zealand and Australia. When not with ROW, he is at the University of Canterbury where he teaches post-graduate papers on health behaviour change. Mark is also a member of the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT).
Note Revolutionaries of Wellbeing (ROW) was formally known as My Health Revolution.
