Getting your wellbeing strategy wrong can cost you thousands too hundreds of thousands of pounds each year in lost productivity, absenteeism, presentieesm and retention.

With the hundreds, maybe thousands of wellbeing solutions on offer to you (Employers / HR Professionals), how can you make the right choice for real ROI for your company?

At the Chronic Edge, we have CEDAR - our Comprehensive Edge Diagnostic Audit Report, which covers all of the areas to successfully calculate your potential losses, highlight your risk areas, and show you how to add both value and profit the right strategy can bring.

Reports like this can cost thousands, but I'm going to talk you through how you can create your own for free on this channel.

The Behind the Edge series is bi-weekly, and we will be alternating between the audit workshop and existing Behind the Edge content.

Once you have all the information needed to craft your own report, you will have the power of your next wellbeing opportunity and discover ways to both boost productivity but improve retention and plug any hidden gaps.

Watch out for our next Audit Workshop in March 2026.

Welcome back to The Chronic Edge Unleashed and part of the Illness is NOT a burden series.

In this episode we will be looking at Endometriosis in the Workplace.

Rather than me throwing some statistics at you (but don't worry there are still some in there), I wanted the words in this episode to be from someone with the condition and how it is impacted them in the workplace.

Listen as I read Miss Q's words about her experience with Endometriosis and her thoughts about working with the condition and hopes for the future. 

Including: Legal Acts, reasonable adjustments, recruitment, tools, and more.

Endometriosis costs the UK billions per year in lost hours, with some many women prioritising their career's over their bodies due to stigma, misunderstandings, and a lack of support and knowledge to help them improve their position and ultimately support their employer, resulting in loss of income, jobs, and their sense of self, but this doesn't have to be the norm, and with the right support, illness is not a burden.

Next time on Illness is NOT a Burden we discuss the Strategies to help the Endo employee navigate the workplace.

The time is now, it's Time to Unleash your Edge, with the Chronic Edge.

In this episode of Behind the Edge, we take a short tour of Dissatisfaction and how, as business owners and HR professionals, misunderstanding this area can destroy a business from the inside out.

Packed with statistics that will make your eyes water, and prompts to conduct your own research and audits into your own business, this episode is a must listen.

With as little as 10% of employees loving their job, it is vital that companies look into methods of engaging and supporting their employees, before they are left behind with tens of thousands of pounds in retention costs and much more.

If you ever wondered what is killing your business, this is a major issue.

(Slight interruption near the end, 2 phone calls when trying to film, but that's showbiz kid).

Behind the Edge episode one - I am not your Saviour.

We've all seen the ads, follow me and I will fix everything about your life, but what they don't tell you is that one system won't fix everything, you need to pick from different sources to create your own toolkit to success to become the best version of you, how it works for you.

In this talk, I'm at home talking about how (like I did) you need to save yourself and implement what you learn from various coaches, speakers and trainers to best apply it to you and your situation, coupled with a little bit of news from the EDGE.

Welcome to the first episode of our new series: ILLNESS IS NOT A BURDEN - Autism in the Workplace.

There are approx 1 MILLION people with Autism in the United Kingdom, with an expected 700,000 too another million awaiting diagnosis, from that pool of just under 2 Million people, it may be a shock but less than half a million of them are in employment, and those of them that are, may be in roles well below their capabilities.

But why?

This session gives a snapshot of a wider problem, with the intention to help people and companies understand the benefits of hiring an autistic individual and help those with autism unleash their self-worth and talents using real-data and practical tools.

As this is launch week, we will be adding our next episode on Friday, and then moving to Tuesday weekly for Illness is not a burden.

Our next episode is Navigating the workplace as an Autistic.

- Please note, not all autistic people are the same, even with the same traits, our experiences differ, these sessions are taken from my personal experience as a late diagnosed person with autism and research.

- If you enjoy the show, please like or share, I'd really appreciate it.

I'm back with a new podcast title and 2 more new shows to bring you.

I'm sorry I've been away so long, those shows were great but so expensive to produce, on top of health issues, I've needed this time away to reflect and decide the best way to give what I want to give with the edge and now I believe I've found it.

Listen in and hear for yourself.
