Behind the Set: Mental Playbooks From Actress & Author Stephanie Szostak

How does an actress who's shared the screen with Meryl Streep and Robert Downey Jr. handle impostor syndrome? What insights on mental fitness can we gain from someone who's experienced both the highs of stardom and the lows of self-doubt? Actress and author Stéphanie Szostak / @stephshortstak has graced the silver screen alongside Hollywood heavyweights like Meryl Streep and Robert Downey Jr. in blockbusters like The Devil Wears Prada and Iron Man 3. But even with her impressive resume, Szostak has battled her fair share of self-doubt and impostor syndrome. In this episode, we'll dive into how Szostak overcame her own mental hurdles to achieve success in the cutthroat world of acting. As the author of Selfish: Step Into a Journey of Self-Discovery to Revive Confidence, Joy, and Meaning, Szostak shares the insights she's gained on mental fitness from her personal journey. Raised in the Paris suburbs, Szostak moved to the U.S. to study business at the College of William & Mary before pivoting to acting at age 29. As her career skyrocketed, she developed her own "playbook" as a daily practice to cultivate a resilient mindset. Now, Szostak is on a mission to help others do the same. In our conversation, we'll explore how her unique experiences have shaped her perspective on well-being and the simple strategies she uses to stay grounded in the face of life's highs and lows. ___ How Prepared is Your Team for the Next Big Disruption?

45 | Finding Your Quiet Space With Movember's Mitch Hermansen

As the development director at the Movember Foundation, Mitch Hermansen is passionate about Men's Mental health and is using one of his own mental fitness practices to raise awareness and funds for men's mental health. -- This year my goal is to raise $5,000 for men’s mental health. To do it I’m going BIG, being a bit bold, and getting preeeetty cold...! I’ll be swimming 8km in the Pacific Ocean. I’ve never swam that far; and for context, when I moved to Vancouver I could barely pump out 12 laps in the pool. Regardless, Im going for it. It will take me about 2.5 hours to complete. Why am I doing this? Well, I never got to meet my grandfather. He died by suicide when I was only a few months old. To this day I often wonder what I missed out on. What I could have learned from him. What memories could have been made with my grandfather if things had been different. So this is for him. With 3/4 of all suicides being by men, it’s unfortunately not an uncommon story. Poor mental health is a killer, and it’s hitting the men in our lives. I want this swim, and my moustache, to be a symbol that gets people talking about it. Please donate if you‘d like to help me reach my $5000 goal.

27 | Taking Out the “Self-Doubt” with Sarah Holloway

Lawyer turned funtrepreneur Sarah Holloway says it best. I wouldn’t say I’m the best candidate for a “short bio” because I’m not only a serial rambler but also an overenthusiastic life lover with too many interests, passions, career changes, personal transformations, lifestyle revelations, adventures, hopes and dreams for one single lifetime. I nonetheless do my very best to squeeze in as much goal-kicking, ground-breaking and memory-making as life permits and I’d say I’m best summed up by my overarching life philosophy – “seize the yay”. Sarah is the co-founder of Matcha Maiden & Matcha Mylkbar and is flat out AWESOME! Enjoy the chat!
