In this episode…

Lindsay Recknell is an Expert in Hope and the founder of Paradigm Corporate Wellness Inc. The messages of taking action in hope and workplace mental health education that Lindsay shares on her podcasts - Hope Motivates Action and Mental Health for Leaders - are the insights she brings to the discussion today.

Lindsay didn’t start her career in the entrepreneurial positive psychology space. Instead, she initially went to school for accounting, switched to HR, and even had a wedding business before she pursued her passion for spreading hope and mental health awareness. Lindsay’s definition of hope is “The future will be better than today by taking action over the things we can control” and it is the action element that separates hope from wishing.

In this episode of What CEOs Talk About, host Martin Hunter and Lindsay Recknell break down everything that surrounds the science of hope, from positivity and optimism to strategy and setting goals. Lindsay enlightens us on precisely why hope is a science and a strategy and imparts advice on how to pursue and reclaim hope in our own lives. Hope isn’t an idle thing but something that Lindsay believes contributes greatly to mental wellness and goal setting.
