Can leaders delegate wellbeing?
Many organisations invest in mindfulness programs, wellbeing initiatives, and culture-building workshops for their teams. But there’s one critical mistake that quietly undermines all of it:
Leaders who outsource wellbeing… without practicing it themselves.

In this episode of Get Jasched, Jess Jasch explores why workplace wellbeing efforts fall flat when leaders don’t engage in their own self-awareness, stress regulation, and reflective leadership practices.

You’ll learn:

• Why culture change is shaped most by those with authority
• The power dynamic leaders must acknowledge
• How “throwing wellbeing at the team” can become a Band-Aid solution
• Why mindfulness and resilience training only work systemically
• The difference between motivating a team and truly leading one

Jess breaks down why leadership is its own skillset — not just a promotion based on technical expertise — and why the most effective leaders model what they expect.
Because wellbeing isn’t something you can delegate.
If you want sustainable performance, clarity, and reduced burnout — it starts with you.

🎧 Tune in for a candid conversation about responsibility, reflection, and real leadership growth.

Are you unintentionally moving the goalposts on your team?
Many leaders are visionary — full of ideas, strategy, and momentum. But without clear communication, even the strongest vision can create confusion, disengagement, and burnout.

In this episode of Get Jasched, Jess Jasch explores one of the most overlooked leadership skills: clearly communicating what you need so your team can actually support you.

You’ll learn:

• Why constantly shifting expectations erodes trust and motivation
• How to guide your team without micromanaging
• The leadership balance between direction and autonomy
• How clarity reduces workplace stress and increases performance
• Why business is more personal than we’ve been taught — and why that matters

Jess also connects leadership communication to our personal lives, reminding us that support only becomes possible when we’re willing to express what we need.
Because whether you're leading a company, a team, or simply your own life — clarity is what turns vision into reality.

🎧 Tune in to learn how stronger communication creates stronger ecosystems of support.

At the beginning of a new year, it’s easy to feel pressure to have everything planned, mapped, and moving already.
But what if how you are being matters just as much — if not more — than what you’re doing?
In this solo episode of Get Jasched, Jess Jasch explores the tension between strategy and embodiment, and why relying solely on plans, frameworks, and lists can leave us feeling disconnected from the very outcomes we’re trying to create.

You’ll hear reflections on:
- The difference between being and doing in leadership and personal growth
- Why strategy alone doesn’t shape our lived experience
- How embodied leadership changes the way we approach goals and performance
- Using your “word for the year” (or any intention) as a way of showing up — not just planning
- Why sustainable success requires both structure and self-leadership

This episode is for leaders, business owners, and high performers who want to move beyond hustle and into intentional, grounded, embodied leadership — without abandoning strategy altogether.
🎧 Tune in for a reminder that it’s not either/or. It’s both/and.

In this solo episode of Get Jasched, Jess Jasch explores the emotional economy of leadership — the invisible emotional labour many leaders carry as they support teams, manage uncertainty, and hold space for others.
Drawing on emotional labour theory (Hochschild), emotion regulation research, and insights from wellbeing science, this episode unpacks why empathy has become a core leadership currency — and how overusing it without boundaries leads to burnout, resentment, and emotional exhaustion.

You’ll learn:
What emotional labour actually is (and why most leaders underestimate it)
Why women, people leaders, and neurodivergent leaders often carry more emotional load
The difference between empathy and emotional self-sacrifice
How emotion regulation supports sustainable, high-impact leadership
What healthy emotional leadership looks like — for you and your organisation
This episode is for leaders who care deeply — and want to lead with empathy without losing themselves in the process.

Psychological safety is now written into workplace legislation — but what does that actually mean for leaders, managers, and teams in practice?

In this episode of Get Jasched, Jess is joined by Ebony Dignan, Director of EJD Advisory, for a grounded, practical conversation about psychological safety, leadership responsibility, and workplace culture — and why compliance alone is never enough.

Ebony brings her expertise in governance, risk management, and advisory work to unpack how organisations can move beyond box-ticking exercises and into real behavioural change that supports both people and performance.

Together, we explore:

• What psychological safety legislation means in practice for leaders
• Why leadership behaviour sets the tone for workplace culture
• The role of communication, trust, and self-reflection in managing psychosocial risks
• Why one-size-fits-all wellbeing approaches often miss the mark
• How middle managers shape day-to-day safety and culture
• The importance of proactive check-ins — not “set and forget” frameworks
• How strong people practices support retention, resilience, and business performance

This episode is especially relevant for business owners, leaders, directors, and managers navigating increasing expectations around psychological safety — and wanting to do it well, not just legally.

A timely, human conversation about responsibility, trust, and building workplaces where people can perform and feel secure.

What happens when women stop giving themselves away — and start making themselves the priority?

In this powerful and deeply grounded conversation, I’m joined by Nancy Griffin, CEO and Founder of Women, Worth and Wellness, a pioneering organisation supporting women’s financial wellbeing, health, and leadership since the early 1990s.

Together, we explore what it truly means for women to step up and step out — not by doing more, but by valuing themselves as their greatest asset. Nancy shares decades of insight working with women around wealth, wellbeing, partnership dynamics, and leadership, and why health must come before money, not after.

This episode covers:
- Why women’s health, wealth, and leadership must be integrated — not siloed
- How over-giving and self-sacrifice quietly erode women’s confidence and capacity
- The mindset shifts that help women reclaim their worth without guilt
- What truly supportive wealth leadership looks like (and how to spot it)
- Why making yourself the priority isn’t selfish — it’s essential
- How well-resourced women lead differently, live differently, and sleep better

This conversation is a reminder — especially as we enter a new year — that you are your most important asset. When women are supported, resourced, and confident in themselves, their leadership becomes clearer, calmer, and more impactful.

🎧 Tune in for a grounded, empowering conversation about leadership, wellbeing, money, and self-worth — and why none of them should ever be separated.

As the year draws to a close, many of us feel caught in a push–pull: wanting to wrap things up, while also desperately needing rest.
In this final episode of Get Jasched for the year, Jess offers a gentle, grounded reflection on navigating the end-of-year period with more self-trust, clarity, and compassion — especially after what has been a heavy year for so many.

This episode explores:
- Why end-of-year overwhelm is so common (and so human)
- The tension between slowing down and needing to keep going
- How to release pressure without avoiding responsibility
- Why scheduling rest — or even future planning — can actually calm the nervous system
- The difference between sustaining yourself and regenerating energy
- How play, imagination, and presence support wellbeing and resilience
- Letting go of “shoulds” and tuning into what genuinely serves you now and future you
Whether you’re feeling exhausted, reflective, hopeful, or all of the above, this episode is an invitation to pause, breathe, and reconnect with what you need — without guilt or comparison.

A supportive listen for leaders, business owners, and humans navigating the emotional complexity of the holiday season.

“I’m exhausted by the pressure to scale,” or
