Managed to film the 1st episode of our new series: Illness is not a Burden; which is a massive achievement, it’s been almost 2 years since I’ve done any recording & it’s been scary.

The first few might not be great but hopefully over time they will improve and be a valuable resource to both employers and employees in this space.

Launch date: Tuesday the 4th November via YouTube & your favourite podcast channel.

Then every Tuesday from 6am.

More information to follow.

WARNING ⚠️

If you are living with an autoimmune condition and your area is experiencing the hot weather this week, please take the necessary precautions.

Heat can often be a positive for people with some conditions, however it can also have the opposite effect.

Conditions such as MS (multiple sclerosis), Lupus, and some people with Arthritis can see an increase in flare-ups, including increased pain, swelling, fatigue and brain fog.

It is vital you stay hydrated, use sunscreen, reduce time in the direct sunlight, be mindful of medications that require cool/cold storage and consult medical professionals if unsure.

Most importantly listen to your body.

To those who know someone with these or other autoimmune conditions, check-in with them and give them some extra time. We tend to smile & say things are fine but underneath we may be struggling and your understanding that the Sun having their hat on isn’t always the best time ever, can go a long way.

Made a few little changes to our website.

Mainly that we will be adding more informative booklets, guides and courses about the various conditions out there and how companies can improve their productivity through strategies and hiring people like us.

Hoping this is a fake email but the more info you look up, the more you feel it is legitimate.

Having such a cold and closed approach to your employee’s wellbeing can spell disaster.

The company are thinking out of sight out of mind, if we remove those stressed, we will have a stress free environment, but instead they will create a toxic environment based on fear, with employees scared to speak up, and actively looking for a new opportunity the moment it appears.

This will also create dissatisfaction and reduce productivity, unhappy employees, especially those in this type of situation, aren’t interested in growing the business or promoting it, impacting on the quality of work.

I don’t think this is the last time we will hear about this company, and it could get a lot worse for them in time.
