There is increasing recognition of psychosocial hazards, psychological safety, burnout, and workplace wellbeing within organisations.

But the psychological impact of leadership itself is discussed far less often.

Holding responsibility for others, while navigating conflict, care, containment, decision-making, organisational pressure, and high expectations carries significant psychological load over time.

We’re pleased to welcome Draga Jevtic, Senior Counselling & Organisational Psychologist, with over 30 years experience to support: burnout, vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, workplace stress, leadership, executive coaching, psychological safety, workforce wellbeing, and complex organisational dynamics.

Professional women deserve spaces where competence is not mistaken for limitless capacity. ✨💜

Some key insights directly from Diane’s presentation at our Empowering Women Summit last year.

“women’s health is interconnected.
nutrition, gut health, hormones, and mood don’t operate in isolation...

the gut plays a central role...
it’s involved in:
hormonal balance metabolism mood and behaviour...

…the gut and brain are closely connected...
a large proportion of serotonin is produced in the gut...
supporting mood regulation…

…gut health also affects
inflammation and protection...
the gut lining and mucus barrier play a protective role...
when disrupted,
inflammation can increase anywhere in the body...

…gut health is part of whole-body health...
including mood hormones
and overall functioning.”
