The Resilience Report

Apr 17 2024 • 37 mins

Listeners of The Resilience Report have heard us say in the past: having a positive impact through your work is a marathon and not a sprint. Part of this fortitude is made possible through managing one’s physical and mental health, or more fittingly for this show: your own resilience.

Which is why I am SO excited to welcome our next guest: Dr. Marie-Hélène Pelletier. An award-winning workplace mental health expert, psychologist, and advisor, MH (as many people call her) is one of only a handful of work psychologists holding both a PhD and MBA, making her expertly blend business acumen with the latest psychology research.

Pelletier is a practicing psychologist with 20+ years of experience in clinical and workplace psychology. She also has extensive experience as a senior leader in corporate, insurance, governance, and public sectors. Pelletier is a member of the Global Clinical Practice Network of the World Health Organization, and a past director on the boards of the Canadian Psychological Association and International Association of Applied Psychology.

Pelletier’s work has been featured in publications like Forbes, Thrive Global, and Fast Company and published in academic journals such as Behaviour Research and Therapy, Journal of Anxiety Disorders, and Organizational Dynamics. She is also the author of The Resilience Plan: A Strategic Approach to Optimize Your Work and Health.

This episode has so many tips and tricks that our listeners (and honestly myself) can put into practice right away to help build our own resilience!
