When leaders invest in their people, it shows.

 recently rolled out our program to support mental fitness across their teams—and we couldn’t be prouder to walk alongside them.

Here’s what Ana, their Head of People & Culture, had to say.

Big news for SA teens!

We’re teaming up with the to launch a leadership + mental fitness program for Year 11 & 12 students.

Why? Because too many young people feel overwhelmed, underprepared, and unsure about their future. We’re here to change that.

With the 36ers’ Shooting Hoops Foundation, we’ve created a high-energy program that combines:
🏀 Basketball
🧠 Evidence-based mental health skills
🎓 SACE credits
👊 Real-life tools for students and educators

It’s fun, engaging, and built to actually work—helping students boost confidence, resilience, and belief in themselves.

Pilot kicking off in two SA schools this term. Full launch in 2026. Let’s go!

Our Head of Oranges Toolkit Program Tegan Davies partnering with to deliver a 45-minute session on Promoting Wellbeing and Healthy Habits as part of their values series across Australia and New Zealand. Findex is one of Australasia’s leading integrated advisory and accounting firms, supporting individuals and businesses with financial services.

We explored how to maintain wellbeing during busy and changing times, with practical, evidence-based tools that support people to thrive — even during the pressures of EOFY.

Highlights included:
·       Recognising early warning signs when your wellbeing is dipping
·       Exploring the role of good stress and how to find your flow state
·       Simple breathwork techniques to shift from ‘fight or flight’ into calm and focus
·       Seven powerful ways to energise through small, daily wellbeing habits

Findex is genuinely prioritising the wellbeing of their people, and we’re thrilled to support organisations like this who are committed to building healthy, high-performing teams.

Traditionally, you’re either mentally healthy, somewhere in the middle, or mentally unwell.

This black and white view oversimplifies our human experience. It doesn’t capture the richness and complexity of us.

The old way we thought about mental health and illness is falling short because:
• it only focuses on distress (rather than prevention and promotion)
• it reinforces stigma (assuming people with mental illness cannot thrive)
• it misses the complexity of human experience (you can thrive in some areas while struggling in others)
• it overlooks positive psychology (by focusing on what’s wrong, we miss out on enhancing what‘s right

If we can start challenging how we think about mental health - in workplaces, communities and our own lives, we not only improve treatment - we enrich lives.

Burnout or languishing?

What if it isn’t burnout? What if your people are languishing? It’s important to understand these two very common mental states that usually occur at work, and how they differ so we can spot the signs and treat it.

Burnout is often loud: exhaustion, cynicism, physical symptoms.

Languishing is quieter: feeling flat, stuck, and disengaged from life.

Understanding the difference can help you take the right action - for yourself, your team, or someone you care about.

Ever feel like your team’s just… going through the motions?

You’re not alone—and it might be more than just a busy period or a mid-year slump. It could be languishing: that sense of feeling flat, unmotivated, and mentally foggy at work.

Be Well Co’s new 60 or 90-minute workshop breaks down what languishing really is, how it shows up in your workplace, and what your team can actually do about it.

It’s reflective, practical, evidence-based—and it just might be the circuit breaker your team needs.

Perfect for team meetings, management training, or a wellbeing lunch & learn.

We recently surveyed hundreds of Australians to better understand what languishing at work really looks like and feels like.

The results tell us that:
• Leadership is pivotal in both preventing and addressing languishing.
• There is an absence of a clear work-life divide in the context of wellbeing, meaning organisations need to consider both personal and professional factors when developing wellbeing strategies
• Presenteeism is a major indicator for languishing in the workplace

Our latest nationwide survey on languishing in the workplace revealed some unexpected but significant results. For a sizeable percentage of staff, presenteeism, not absenteeism is the big threat to performance.

Workplaces might typically monitor poor wellbeing by the amount of sick leave or time off an employee takes, but our data shows that most people are actually showing up to work, but are emotionally checked out.

Presenteeism is not only a major cost to Australian workplaces, it’s also damaging to organisations and their people.

Languishing is like being in a state of limbo where motivation is low, focus is fuzzy and joy feels out of reach. It’s kind of like a mental limbo. Overtime, languishing can become a serious risk to your mental health. It’s about acknowledging it and taking steps to get your wellbeing back on track.
